Above water games for divers - Scuba Forum

PhD4JC · 11-23-2007, 11:39 AM

Looking for suggestions of games to play with divers ABOVE the water.
So far I have:
Fins relay (relay race wearing fins)
Charades (acting out underwater scenarios)
Goggles crossword (doing a crossword puzzle or other game with water filled goggles on)

Any other ideas?
Feel free to email them to me at PhD4JC@hotmail.com

Games, I don't do games!!!! SCUBA is a serious thing...it is all encompassing. There is no Game to SCUBA!!!!

sorry couldn't help it.

Actually, most of the time it's swapping lies and other tales, having a snack and planning the next dive or next trip.

My feelings are hurt. You mean diver's lie. I thought all those stories I heard on the boat were true.

How about an orienteering game using your wrist compass and a "hood" (no visual references)?

You could try

- Above water freediving. (See how far someone can go whilst holding their breath, and make it back to the starting point again without 'drowning').

- Safety Saussage limbo (or maybe safety saussage sword fights)

- Snorkel relay. 2 teams, each has a pingpong ball. They need to pass the ball from the front of the line to the end of the line using snorkels only (ie suction only), without dropping the pingpong ball.

What sort of event are you planning this for? Just everyday, a kids camp, etc?

The difference between a Fairy Tale and a Sea Story ?
One starts off "Once upon a time" the other starts off "This is a true story, no sh*t "

Steve Scuba that sounds good. But how would they se their compass with the hood on????

Thanks Roughwater, I am planning for next year's picnic. We will be at a park, not the water, so these will have to be land based simulations.
