Swimming at depth without a mask is no fun. For Divemaster training I had to swim 50 yards underwater with no mask sharing air. April in Indiana quarries is pretty cold on the ole' eyeballs. As soon as I removed my mask and started the swim my lunch was settling and my nose was tickled- yea I was trying to belch, had to sneeze without a mask 30 feet deep and about 45 degrees. I managed to control the situation but I dont dive without a backup mask now.
The point?- training is an important part of diving! Is not like riding a bicycle. You have to be active or you loose the comfort level. Things can go wrong real fast underwater, you need to know how to react and not hurt yourself.
Stop-Breath-Think-Breath-React-Breath....panic is not an option!
