If you had drown I would have done a nice tribute story about you - but you would have been dead so you would miss it....
Were you wearing your lucky SRI hat when it happened?

Glad you are ok!!!
Have any of you ever thought about cutting the strap on your plug bags or what ever you carry and sew Velcro on it?? This way you could just rip it off in a situation like this.

Carry an external sheepsfoot blade knife (like a myerchin... preferably serrated for speed) and DON'T PANIC.

Geeze Eben, If you were under for 5-6 waves and they had a 10 second interval, then you were under for way too long. It's one thing to hold your breath for time on purpose, way another to get surprised like that. Good thing you're a Glass Blower. Your occupation may have saved your life.
