The Proof

Here is an awesome video of me swimming backwards, courtesy of my good friend Miguel who is a videographer here in Cozumel:

Now the first part where my knees are down is just because I was in a heads up trim for the camera (HONEST!). Anyone coming to Cozumel to dive should think about asking Miguel to take some video of their dives (shameless plug for Miguel)

Very nice... I love the Mission Impossible theme going on here... At first I thought the fish were superimposed with your location, but then I saw the pan from the fish to you... that was pretty cool videography. Kudos to Miguel.

I notice you don't "clap" your soles together like the guy in the other video, I guess there's more than one way to do it...

Two years ago when I was last in Coz, my hogarthian configuration was looked at with much curiosity, are there more divers using it for ocean dives today, or is it still a rare sight?

Jose - those fish were awesome - I forgot all about Miguel filming! Johnny - I don't think too many recreational divers use a backplate/ harness here! I still teach in a BCD and hate wearing it:)

So I'll be getting more funny looks when I'm in Coz next month :)
