DSMB Basics: How To Choose, Setup, Deploy & Ascend | Scuba Diving

DSMB Basics: How To Choose, Setup, Deploy & Ascend | Scuba Diving. In this video, we will outline the 7 essential features of a good Delayed Surface Market Buoy (DSMB) system. We will also show you how to set up the DSMB "package" (DSMB, Spool, Line, Double Ender), how to deploy a DSMB underwater and how to ascend properly with a deployed DSMB.

Deploying a DSMB properly underwater in good trim and neutral buoyancy while holding a fixed position is the mark of any good diver. It can be a challenging skill to master but it's worth every effort put into it as it can help you get out of difficult situations. I tell my students to never dive without a DSMB as all of our dives are in open water.

If you are in the Philippines, check out my FaceBook Page - GoDivePH.   / godiveph   . We sell, and can help you setup your DSMB as well as train you on how to use it properly. If you would like to learn how to dive or take Advanced / Technical Diving courses, send me a message. I teach at Anilao and Bauan Batangas. If you’re a certified diver, join us for a fun dive and experience the GoDivePH difference.
