Re: Safety Freedivers bringing up the BO victims

removing the mask underwater opens up the nose to water however quick you do it and its very hard to hold the mouth and nose shut on the way up - much easier to hold the mask on - plus removing the mask delays the ascent time. I wouldn't do it. It's quick enough to do it once you reach the surface.
