What do yall do underwater for fun or to pass the time? For example on saftey/deco stops? Ive heard of people playing rock, paper scissors,or even tossing around a small "torpedo".

<DIV>I usually just concentrate on my breathing and slow it down as slow as possible....Boring I know.</DIV>

if there's a decent current i'll take off my full foot fins and 'surf' you basically stick your toes in the hole in the front with one foot, rest your other foot on the blade of the fin and catch some current. it's really fun... for a deco stop i guess

<DIV>You seriously do this on a deco stop? I was told on deco stops that you don't move at all, because you increase your risk toxing during the deco stop.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Now a safety stop I could see something like playing around, but isn't it risky on a true deco stop otherwise?</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>As for me, I do one of two things on a safety stop. I'll either watch the fish or I play the thing as a deco stop and hang motionless. Both are fun, the motionless bit is hard to do all the time.</DIV>

Take photos, listen to my UW MP3, just relax. It all depends on how long I have to hang.
