Scuba diving naked: would you? have you?

Category: Survey
Replies: 1231

Would you take the plunge only wearing scuba gear and no clothes? Have you done this before? Should Greg even be asking a question like this?

If you have done this...tell us about it.
If you object to this...why?
If you plan on doing this...will you take pictures and post them on DiveBuddy.com...making sure to black out the "goods"?

[Choose #3] There are a couple videos of people doing their 100th dive naked, and after seeing them it actually looks like a lot of fun. I wasn’t sure about it at first but the videos look fun. Not sure why people would be offended about it.

shannon - 6/12/2012 9:32 AM
[Choose #1] I have. Consider fresh water for your first nekkid dive if you’re skittish. It’s a bit safer as far as aquatic life goes and usually less viz which might help if you’re shy.

[Choose #2] Was convinced that it was a requirement for your 100th dive, water was cold, but it was also my partners 100th dive as well so we shared the embarassment from the rest of our dive club. Good thing it was a night dive as water was around 50 degrees.
