Re: My First Pool Rescue

Nice post Ben!

It's easy afterwards to see what could have been done better, which certainly is a good thing, as it's always good to improve and help others improve.

However you did all the basic things right: you followed him after his turn, stayed almost within grabbing distance, knew he was in trouble when he lost air, got him out quickly, took his mask off, acted very calmly... you handled the situation perfectly. That's what counts!

Practice of mock black out situations is defintely on the program asap so everyone can learn to act as well as you did.
