Thx for the video Jim. I dig that song a lot. The water looks very sergy. Did you notice your underwater footage looks defocused. You can fix it with one of those flat lenses. http://goforfocus.com is one of 3rd party vendors that sells a replacement lense that fixes the defocus problem for the GoPro HD.

Nice Jim!

I know that reef pretty well... one of my biggest lings came in ~8-10ft of water right in front of that house.   :smt001

Love that even in bad conditions, the vis always seems to be nice in that area.   :smt004

Thanks for the video Jim. Yours and Chaeki's are my only ticket to the underwater world. How long on the average was each freedive taking you? I was counting about 40~45 seconds.

Just like your new camera, you're "going pro" bro. Keep 'em coming.

Awesome Vid Jim - I like how it shows the kelp stalks that are usually standing straight up, all laying down in the crazy surge. The gopro really makes the viz seem a lot better than it actually was. Also - okay - now I believe you about the monkey face! Good Job!

Thanks Geoff!! I told you that eel was a hawg!

Too bad the card that I was using filled up after 24 minutes...otherwise you would've seen me stone that nice cabbie too!!  :smt009  :smt002 :smt005 :smt044

I am going to get a 16GB one that should last a lot longer....

Thanks everybody for the nice words...I really appreciate it.

Sincerely,

Jim
