is jumping in the ocean w/4-5ft swells. i would think
3 or 4 times before doing that--more than likely,
i would not do a giant stride entry into 4-5ft
swells. i don't think i've ever been on a charter boat
that let divers in to "rough seas". it may indeed
be different in different diving areas around the
world, but as far as my socal experience, i don't
think i would choose to giant stride into those
conditions and i don't think boat ops would allow
that themselves.
IF i did, the reg would definitely be in my mouth,
nontheless.
best wishes.
