What kind of sea sick pills? Should I take them before I go?

 Hey guys. I got space 99 at the campground and since me and my girl will only be using 1 parking spot and the limit is 2 i believe. If anyone needs a parking space let me know.

What kind of sea sick pills? Should I take them before I go?

Kicker

yes u should!!! and I bought what was recommended here on this site and it works...and have extra with me in my bag and will donate to the cause...c ya Fri afternoon Kicker...My name is Mike....give it to mikey....

I had a lot of trouble with motion sickness. These things have helped me:

Get up early enough that I can eat a couple hours before I go out. A banana and a small wheat muffin are plenty for breakfast if you get sick easy.

No coffee

I was using the patch and it didn't seem to help. I switched to meclazine chewable tabs (over the counter) and they helped a lot. Take them a few hours before yaking/diving.

Don't struggle with tangles and gear. Take your time look up and work through tangles and gear in a very relaxed way.

Don't overheat. If you dress too hot you are on your way to puking.

Used controlled breathing when diving. Some people breath hard through their snorkel when they are floating on the surface. You won't have time to stop the water from coming in your snorkel and down your throat if a swell goes over your snorkel. Control your breathing so you don't suck in water. Once you swallow a mouthfull of seawater you will probably be sick.

Stay away from wash rocks. The surgy water movement will destroy a delicate stomach. Get out in the open away from waves/surge and you will feel better.

Keep your yak organized so you don't have to twist around a lot or look down too much.

This stuff in combination has worked great for me.

Wow, I hope you guys are as good as you sound. I am new to this and I am looking forward to learning from some pro's.  ROGLMAO!!

Welcome to NCKA Kicker. We are actually better then we sound except for some who talk more than actually catch fish.  Make sure you buddy up on a team and do bring some seasickness medication like scopace or transderm scopalamine. These are by prescription. If not bring dramamine.

meclazine chewable tabs thats the ticket...thats what i use Kicker...got some for u when u go out...I take it an hr before i go out...and everything amphibian says...hell Yeah...been there done that...it sorta sucks when you've taken a mouthful of salty water...and start puking...there goes your day....
