Here we have a frogwoman in vintage scuba gear and she is trying to catch an octopus!
Will she succeed? Or will she get into trouble?

Well, not only do we have a vintage frogwoman with a double hose regulator here… but even in color as well! 🙂
This documentary is seemingly from 1971 when the double hose regulators were disappearing more and more from scuba diving. 🙁
She has quite an interesting combo of scuba gear, and the double hose regulator is certainly my highlight in this video.
Very cool how she handled the octopus! I was hoping it might play a little with her intake air hose… but well, that octopus was just on the defense the whole time.
Maybe SPECTRE should think about training some of those creatures for further underwater warfare 😉
The guy had some more problems and even his mask was flooded in the process… but he handled the situation well and didn’t panic.

Wanna know more?
I don’t have any additional info on the title, but I think the first seconds of the video do provide some good info.

And don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube channel if you haven’t already.
You can watch and download these videos in the VIP club, but only for personal use!
Don’t share them with anyone…. anywhere!
It’s pretty simple, I had to spend a lot of money:
All that scuba gear, location rent, and the money for the frogwomen and the safety diver.
If I don’t make enough money with these videos….. I won’t be able to make new videos at some point.
I hope you appreciate these videos and want to see more in the future!
After all, you get all those Project F videos each month + additional content for just 12 euros (or even less per month if you get into the VIP club for more than one month).
I would say that is quite a bargain!
Why are my videos not on sites like Clip4sale?
Well, Clip4sale are a bunch of cutthroats that want 40%(!) of each video that you sell.
Yes, they offer those videos to a wide audience, but I don’t wanna give someone 40% for “just” providing the platform to sell the videos.
Also, that would mean that YOU would have to pay a lot more to get the videos…
I guess I could have made more money if my videos were on Clip4sale… but well, I won’t do it.
I will check out other sites like Vimeo though, if that would be an option or not.

The future of Project F?
There will be a first video shoot in a lake in June or July.
And there will be another regular, big video shoot this year in this cool deep pool …in August.
So, there will be many more new videos for the VIP club for sure!
This is video 28 and the fourth from the 4th video shoot.
A little early (Friday instead of Sunday), as I am mostly away on the weekend.
In this video, Frogwomen Lucy and newcomer Tessie are training their scuba combat skills so they are always ready for a mission.
It’s Tessie’s first appearance in a “Project F” video!
Frogwomen Lucy and Tessie in “Scuba Combat Training 5”, 1080p, 60 frames, 3:58 minutes
Info: The training has 4 rounds. That means that 4 times one of them forces the other one to the surface.

Video contains:
2 frogwomen, neoprene, 2 smooth skin wetsuits, 1 (of them is a) vintage-style beavertail wetsuit, double hose regulator, scuba peril, scuba fight, some modern scuba gear,
hoods (2 of 2), fins, mask flooding/ripping, regulator stealing, air hose squeezed shut, leg scissors
Lethal or non-lethal ending?
It’s a combat training scenario…
–
Background info (without spoiler):
Tessie was the safety diver for most of the day, but also debuted in front of the camera in this video.
She has some scuba certificates and plenty of scuba experience already at a rather young age.
So, it was pretty difficult for Lucy to force Tessie to the surface in this training scenario 😉
In comparison to modern regulators, the 60-year-old Royal Mistral double hose regulator is less comfortable when it comes to breathing and handling, but Lucy adapted to it quickly.

After all, you get all those 6 Project F videos each month + additional content for just 12 euros (or even less per month if you get into the VIP club for more than one month).
I would say that is quite a bargain!
The rotation periods for each video will get a little longer though. When a video leaves the VIP club it will be out for at least 4 months.
But still, there will be …at least…. 5-6 Project F videos in it each month.
So, it’s time for the sixth video of the 2nd video shoot of “Project F”!
As mentioned in the previous posts, the videos from that shoot will be pretty short, but action-packed as we tried some simple action scenarios.
Frogwoman Kara and Frogwoman Lucy wanna figure out who is the better underwater fighter. And there is only one way to find out 😉

Background info:
This was the last scenario we filmed on that video shoot and time was slowly running out.
Frogwoman Lucy was still in her vintage-style gear, incl. the double hose regulator.
After we had an air hose cut with a corrugated, thick hose at the first video shoot, I wanted to have an air hose cut with a modern air hose this time.
At first, Lucy had some problems with getting the knife out of its holster (that footage will be included in the long cut of this video) …and …slicing such a hose is quite difficult!
It took her several tries to “only” damage the hose, which wasn’t the exact result I wanted… but we learned a lot.
I will need to sharpen that knife a little bit before the next video shoot.
I admire how dedicated Lucy was to getting the job done; she tried and tried and didn’t stop, even as she cut herself in the fingers several times!
But she stayed really calm, and thankfully, these were only minor cuts. Still, others might have freaked out, but she was really relaxed and brave.
Next time, we will practice such a scene better beforehand.
I am quite glad we filmed this scenario at the very end, as this would have influenced the shooting. Don’t think it would have been wise for Lucy to continue on that day.
However, I was and am really happy with how well both Frogwomen mastered this unknown scenario, especially as both have so little experience with diving.
I was quite surprised that this downward move damaged the air hose like that… after the previous attempts didn’t do any real damage (that footage will also be added in the long cut of this video).
In a future scenario like this, I wanna use a detailed script, and it would be great to continue the fight after the air hose was sliced. The attacked diver would continue breathing with the 2nd regulator while the air would be gushing out of the other air hose.
I wonder how long the air in the tank will last with a sliced regulator hose? Pretty sure I saw a YouTube video where someone tried that and it took about 2 minutes or so.
Well, we will find out 😉

Editing:
I used some filters (10% more brightness in gamma and gain, text).
Where to watch it?
The video will be available again in the VIP club in August alongside the other content!
Here is a quick overview of the content of this month:
On the first video shoot, Frogwoman Alice dove with the Royal Mistral connected with double hoses to a vintage Techniscub FFM (video 1).
Frogwoman Uma tested the Royal Mistral double hose regulator in another video (video 9).
This time, I added a vintage-style scuba mask to the scuba gear so Frogwoman Lucy would be fully in vintage gear that looks like it could have been from the 60s.
So I created a short video with her in that gear, incl. some surface shots of her getting ready for the dive!
For me, it can’t get much better in terms of scuba gear than this combo.
And she will be in this gear in another video with action! (my favorite one from that video shoot)
In the future, I wanna include longer “getting into the scuba gear” scenes at the beginning of some videos.
Spoiler title
As you can see, the mask is pretty “flat” with little room for the nose. During the shoot, I didn’t notice that the tip of her nose was pressed against the glass of the mask. That happens if you stare at the tiny screen of the camera all the time (she didn’t notice it either). Certainly, I should have checked that more carefully, but it only fully showed underwater.
Well, I learned another lesson.
Another frogwoman will wear this mask at the next shooting.
But ok, only a small issue, as this is a short video and she is only facing the camera for some short scenes.
Fun facts:
Frogwoman Lucy also had no problem to also dive with this vintage double hose regulator from the 60s.
I guess you won’t find many young women like her who have diving experience with such old vintage gear. Especially since she doesn’t have a scuba certificate.

Editing:
I used some filters (10% more brightness in gamma and gain, text).
As I mentioned before, the audio here was challenging, with a sound the camera picked up from the pool machinery.
I tried a lot with the audio since that sound is here more annoying than in the other videos that have more action and noise.
I edited the audio track of the underwater part to reduce the noise and simultaneously not affect the wanted audio.
And the result is quite good, I would say.
Where to watch it?
It will be available again in the VIP club NOW in October!
