I really was just going to get a nose clip and call it a day. You really think I should put more than 30 seconds of effort in learning to breath without a nose clip?
I will take it to the gym and give it another shot this week.
Heres' the thing to do about water up your nose.
Stop if you have to, and blow that water out of your nose as hard as you can!
Then yes, QBrain, keep on trying to self-plug!
I too am a dork and have not yet learned how to flipturn with a snorkle, but will learn this week. Promise.
As far as the FINIS gear section was concerned, I would have loved it if FINIS had sent some of their monofins.
Next to the snorkle, it is also one of the most under-utilized piece of swim training equipment.
The diving competition was right next to this section and the noise created the havoc. Made it nearly impossible to give instructions for group drills.
Still everyone had the chance to try out the goods and that was cool.
