Based on what others tell me, rebreathers allow much closer approach to fish life. Based on my own diving, controlling the bubble generation definitely makes a big difference. But a rebreather is more technical than many of us want. How to get some of the benefits without the pain?
Looking for ideas. Here is a start.
What if we had a way to blow the bubbles out that was not near our head? We might want the regulator free to discharge in case a person losses their cookies underwater.
What if the mask had a connection or two that connected to one or more hoses? And the hoses led down the inside of the wetsuit and discharged at the ankle?
Of the tube led down the inside of a vest and discharged at the waist?
When you were exhaling via the regulator, no change. When blowing out your nose, the bubbles would be far from your face, the camera and shy little fishies.
Of could the regulator have large discharge hose that led to the back of the waist for discharge?
Does any of this make any sense at all?
Or am I just, well, blowing bubbles?
I suspect WetPix members will have better ideas than this.
