How To Fail Your Open Water Test * Tell your Instructor you will race him to the surface. * Lie face down and motionless while holding your breath. * Spit in your wetsuit and pee in your mask. * Your Instructor asks "You don't want to do the buddy breathing because you have what?" * You ask your Instructor which fin goes on which foot. * You ask your Instructor if that was his mask under your tank. * You tell your Instructor there is no way you can lift a cylinder with 3000 pounds of air in it. * When asked for your dive plan, you hand over a bundle of travel brochures.

You Need Buoyancy Control When * You rely on the silt trail you always stir up to find the shot line at the end of the dive. * You insist that you never wear fins because it makes it more difficult to walk on the bottom. * The only place you can hover is at the surface. * On ascents, your entire body clears the surface of the water. * You use 1000 psi for breathing and 2000 psi for your BC. * You are certain you went for one dive, but your computer has logged three. * You think being neutral in the water means that you don't fight with your buddy.

Your Dive Buddy Hates You If * He gives you the "wait here" sign and you are still on the boat. * He "forgets" to close your dry suit zipper. * When you indicate you are low on air, he writes on his slate "I'll get you some" and swims off. * When you give him the out of air signal, he passes you his snorkel. * You give him the "OK" signal and he gives you the finger. * He spits in your mask for you, but you haven't taken it off yet. * He shows up with a set of tables based on his own algorithm "that's WAY better". * He loudly proclaims that safety stops are for "wossies".
