More Realistic PADI Mask Removal and Replacement for IDC Dive Instructors to teach

PADI Mask Removal and Replacement taught a different way then most Diving Instructors teach and then One day it hit me and I decided to just ask my PADI diving students to take off the mask instead of flooding it first.. And OMG! No-one panicked!! Check out my full article about this here: https://www.idckohtaothailand.com/how-to-teach-the-padi-mask-removal-and-replacement-skill/ This must be a one time thing right? But then I tried it on the PADI Mask Removal and Replacement skill course after course and I had no-one or maybe 1 even so courses, panicking at this PADI Mask Removal and Replacement skill in the confined swimming pool section. Then it really hit me.. Taking just the diving mask off underwater is way more easier then flooding it before taking it off!! Doing this method on every PADI Open Water Diver course, after course it proved successful over and over again! (at the time I was doing 6 to 8 Open Water students per course on Koh Tao, Thailand) I needed to know why it worked so well and then I found out that a lot of people are used to water in the face while swimming or taking a shower, so taking the mask off is really not that bad as they expect water to surround their face... But flooding the the mask first, by putting water into a box, surrounding their eye's and then closing it up, while they are already scarred, just triggers to breath! And how they breath? Through their Nose in a split second.. This is when everything goes wrong..! Now I know, I will get a lot of hate and comments from many new and old experienced etc. diving instructors saying this is not true, but it worked for me for the PADI Mask Removal and Replacement over and over again.. Please try it out on more then 2 beginner diving PADI Open Water courses to test if you like it and if not then just do your own thing.
