Diving – Tips and Recommendations

Swimming and especially diving are nice pastimes. Especially the latter requires a lot of preparation, care and the right equipment. The diving equipment required and the quality of the equipment must be learned during the certification course. But there are also accessories that are not mandatory, but make life easier for a diver in some situations. While preparing for a dive, the question often remains where small valuables can be safely stowed so they can not be stolen, lost, or damaged by the water. To solve this problem, there are diving eggs. These are small, egg-shaped plastic containers which close very tightly and can be attached to the diving equipment with the help of a ribbon and thus can be taken under water, including smaller valuables.

Advantages of diving

Especially when diving on vacation in the sea, it can often be that one undertakes excursions with entire groups of people to common diving destinations. These are often strangers that you see for the first time and can not and should not necessarily trust. More or less unattended valuables are unfortunately lost too quickly in such situations – even if they are caught between the belongings of other people and then accidentally taken away. But even if nothing is lost: seawater attacks many things, especially electronics very strong and can lead to total damage within a short time. Therefore, it is particularly important to protect such items even from the salty air. Diving eggs are perfect for this purpose. They consist of two halves of sturdy plastic, which are screwed together and provided with a seal, which prevents the ingress of water. Diving eggs are designed to withstand at least the pressure prevailing at 30 meters of water depth. This is the depth in which normal scuba divers can penetrate without special equipment or training. Therefore, a water resistance to 30 meters depth is absolutely sufficient. Above all, it is important that one Diving is big enough to provide enough space for the commonly taken things. These usually include keys and jewelry. However, some money can always be packed, or medications that are needed regularly. The important thing is that Diving can be easily attached to the rest of the equipment. The individual models have tapes, key rings or snap hooks. This usually allows them to be fastened to the buoyancy compensator, are quick to reach and still not disturb diving.

Tips to choose from

Above all, it is important that a robust Diving is selected. The tightness should be guaranteed up to 30 meters depth, rather something more to be completely safe. The Diving must be large enough to be able to stow the desired items in it in any case. Although most models have a diameter of about 10 x 5 cm, but it occasionally comes on the last millimeter. In addition, the attachment to the equipment should work absolutely safely. A simple cord may not support enough, so additional attachments with key rings or carbineHooks are recommended. In an independent comparison, several diving eggs were compared with each other. As a result, it was found that diving eggs from the company Mares are particularly high quality: from 6 compared models, 3 come from Mares. The comparison winner of the comparison is the Mares Diving Dry Box Dive. Other recommended diving animals are, for example, the Scubapro Diver’s Egg by Subgear, the SUB by Seac, and the dive shop Dry Box by ScubaPro.
