Hey,

Great video, really brings back some memories - I really like Dos Ojos, so different, in it appearance from every turn, and so spectacular, that you dont even have to write the name of the cave before you know where you are diving

.

where were the double scooter, double stage guys going too ? any video from there dive ?

best

Hi Anders,

The other three are JP Bresser, Anne-Marie and Danny Riordan. JP and AM were doing the scooter workshop. There is no more material from their dive.

Marloes and I could also play a bit with the Gavins :-))))

ahh nice, I bet they will do some dives up the LSD line then, I met the workshop just after our first scooter drop last time I was in mex - really really nice dive, would love to see that part of the cave on video.

have a nice time if you are still in mexico, and keep posting the videos - they really make me wish I was there.

How refreshing to see a cave dive video not crammed full of follow shots.
I've also noticed that there's a scene in the Dos Ojos video (around 2:09) where the camera is moving backwards. I am no videographer, but it is nice to see someone experimenting with camera angles and movement.
Ever thought of using an assistant with a scooter, hook your legs around his/hers and get towed backwards?
Would it work?
Regards, Maria

Apologies for never actually introducing myself before! I will post an introduction in the appropriate forum in a couple of days.

Hi Myriam,

THANKS!

The scene at 2:09 is me backward kicking is hard as possible

We are not yet allowed to go into the caves with a scooter. But it's a great idea for the future, thanks! Or we can try it in the openwater

Follow shots are easy to make and the buddies are not bothered too much with the filming-business. Marloes is in this video and she had a lot of patience
