Building rapport – and building a connection – is one of those things I consider myself pretty talented as a conversation-alist at these days. People remark that they often feel like we’re old friends upon first meeting me; men very often assume that women I’ve met minutes before have known me for years; and I find it incredibly easy to have people open up to me about all manner of personal details – so easy that they typically offer those details unasked.
Kind of funny, in retrospect, considering I spent most of my life as a man apart, without any close connections of any sort.
So someone you’ve just met thinks of you as an old friend, or the girl you’ve been getting to know for twenty minutes has told you her life story and now feels that you know her better than all but two other people in her life. Sounds fun, and empowering, right? But what’s the advantage of this? Well, as you can probably surmise, the advantages to deep diving with rapport come in spades , actually. Here are a few:
Those sound like some cool advantages that would be nice to have, right? They are – they make life easy . A lot of the problems that men without the benefits of being talented at the deep dive run into are non-existent for men who have mastered conversational deep diving . Phone numbers that flake? Almost non-existent. You’re burned indelibly into the mind of every woman you spent at least five minutes with, and they can’t wait to talk to you again. Women who take a long time to warm up to you? I’ll be damned if I can remember the last time I ran into this situation. Women become magnetically attracted to you the instant you start getting to know them. One strange thing I’ve noticed is that once a man’s good at deep diving, he seems to put out this extremely warm, extremely welcoming vibe that others are naturally drawn to and will begin opening up to without any prompting by him. I’ll try to break down my current understanding of this below.
I wrote this to be a sort of wrap-up article. There is a lot of information I’ve covered spread out over the past two years of writing on here that is kind of strewn about everywhere. This article looks to coalesce a lot of that into something vaguely recognizable / comprehensible. Hopefully it will give you a better idea about how to achieve some really cool things in your conversations with women.
There are some technical elements to the conversational deep dive, and some personality traits that are important to train yourself on. You need both sides of the coin – the technical, and the personal – to become highly effective at deep diving into rapport.
Let’s talk about the technical elements first. These are the ones you can begin implementing immediately to start seeing some results. Many of these I’ve talked about before in individual posts – I’ll link to them where relevant below – this post would be absolutely massive if I went into each of these elements in-depth on an individual basis!
Those are the main technical elements. Working on each takes time, but even a low level of mastery of any one of those aspects of deep diving gives you a huge advantage in generating strong, connection-forming conversation with others. For both your goals in seduction, and your general life goals, I highly recommend some time getting these things down.
The other aspect of getting good at deep diving is personality-based . That means, you have and showcase the personality characteristics of a man who others will be inclined to share themselves with and bond deeply with. Men like that are few and far between – most men are too caught up in their own lives and stories and goings-on to pay much attention to those of others, let alone to how well they do at making others want to share and deeply connect. The following are some things that, should you decide to begin implementing them into your own base personality, because of their very nature will take you a longer time to learn and incorporate – but once they become a part of who you are, you will reap benefits in just about every walk of life where socializing comes in to play – which is to say, just about every walk of life.
Once you’ve got the basics of conversation down, implementing the tools and techniques and personality elements covered in this post will take your connection-building to the next stage of its evolution. You will be building powerful, rapid, lasting connections with others, and being one of the most memorable people they’ll meet in any given span of time. You’ll give yourself the foundation on which to move through a seduction with speed – even when you make mistakes here and there, you still have a strong connection with your girl to fall back on – and build lasting relationships upon.
You’ll have mastered the art of the deep dive – and you will be someone other people gravitate towards as they do few others.

This past November I was lucky enough to attend Performance Freediving’s inaugural “Women’s Only” freediving clinic in Kona, Hawaii. As the late summer months waned and my preparations and anticipation surged I began to wonder what it would be like. What would I learn? What would it feel like? As a pretty hard-core scuba professional I knew I was riddled with a few disadvantages coming into the course, which were namely 1) my own preconceptions, 2) an arsenal of bad habits formed around scuba gear choices and proclivities for teaching a different discipline, and 3) the overt, and perhaps, slightly dangerous, curiosity I had similar to that of a wobbly, undisciplined puppy. Hailing from the typically turbulent cold-water currents of northern California, I was very eager to immerse myself in the warm and welcoming waters of the Big Island. Relative to the conditions I normally teach scuba in, I knew I’d probably be comfortable in whatever Pele threw my way. What I would soon come to find out is that neither the water conditions nor the antics of a Polynesian goddess would be the biggest hurdle: that hurdle I would conveniently provide myself.
On Saturday, November 10th, 2007 seven worthy women gathered at Jack’s Diving Locker in Kona, for the first-ever “Women’s Only” intermediate freediving course offered by the husband and wife team of Mandy-Rae Cruickshank and Kirk Krack, founders of Performance Freediving (PFI) . As many of you already know Mandy-Rae is an accomplished athlete who has set myriad records herself, and currently holds the AIDA world record of 88 meters in constant ballast. And Kirk is no slouch either, having pioneered technical diving and instruction when it barely existed in the early 90’s, and more recently training & coaching the likes of freediving legends Brett LeMaster, Tanya Streeter and Martin Stepanek–all of whom achieved world records under the philosophies of PFI and the supportive guidance of Kirk. As an instrumental catalyst for 20 different freediving world records, PFI was inspired by Kirk & Mandy’s desire for good education and a reliable safety system. They have been thought-leaders and innovators in what is still an emerging sport. So, what I am essentially saying is that taking a PFI course and spending one-on-one time with Kirk and Mandy-Rae is the equivalent to playing 18 holes of golf with Tiger Woods. It is an amazing opportunity to learn from the absolute best and transform (or as in my case, create) your technique. Having access to such a personal level of freediving training by such talented instructors can be profoundly life changing, it is undeniably inspiring and most of all, while I can’t vouch for hanging with Tiger, with Mandy & Kirk it is totally fun. Despite their hectic schedules, their constant traveling and lecturing, their high profiles and awesome achievements, Kirk and Mandy remain down-to-earth and very accessible.
So back to that sunny Saturday morning and my stunning classmates. I say stunning because I was surrounded by an Olympic Swimmer and NCAA champion originally from South Africa (Liz), an unassuming, soft-spoken and very sweet sustenance spear-fisher woman from the Aleutian Islands (Susan), a vivacious underwater photographer/filmmaker from Canada (Braden), a dedicated young mom from So Cal, the doppelganger of a modern day Lana Turner (Kristen), a record-holding blue water huntress, who happens to manufacture RIFE spear guns for a living (Julie), and a yet another lovely Alaskan whose life’s work has been committed to families in need as a public service attorney (Laura). Spanning all age ranges and experience levels, it was a pleasant and perhaps uncommon byproduct of the PFI course that as a diverse group we bonded quickly and seamlessly. Friendships formed and encouragement was pervasive as we all went through personal successes and some shortcomings during this clinic; we shared meals and felt like a patchwork family for a few days.
Prior to arriving, we had all agreed that while it was a “women’s only” course, we would still welcome the male tutelage of Kirk as an instructor and the assistance of a few freediving friends that were guys as well. On our first day, Mandy and Kirk described how the course would be organized and how the upcoming days would unfold, and then started the presentation of freediving academics. They began by walking us through safety fundamentals such as how to be a good freediving buddy, why the buddy system in freediving and spear fishing is critical, tactical safety how-to’s such as “when to safety on the surface vs. going down to assist”. Then we became familiar with some of the mysterious acronyms and secret lingo in the sport; here’s just a sample:
LMC = loss of motor control, also known as “Samba” or as NEAR blackout
“One up One down” –waiting on the surface 30 seconds BEFORE the next person goes down.
“Sink Phase” –you are past your neutral buoyancy at depth – no need to kick
“Hook Breaths” –take a breath in and hold it for 3 seconds
“Pulmonary Dump” –the lungs open up and brain’s blood pressure drops
“the Rule of 9’s” for performance evaluations = how do I feel? what feels different? should I continue? Namely addressing the 9 ways to answer the above regarding these critical areas:
We discussed the signs and symptoms of near blackout and the physiological cycle of what is actually happening in our bodies and why when a near blackout occurs and how to prevent it.
The breadth and depth of background that Mandy and Kirk shared with us was both comprehensive and very technically informative, and for some it seemed a bit overwhelming. I was grateful to have a pre-existing understanding of physics and physiology, a strong theory foundation built by scuba and rebreathing training. What became manifest to me first in the classroom, and was then firmly cemented secondly in our pool and ocean sessions, was how important the ability to mentally focus would be. Paying attention to one’s own personal technique in sequential steps (breathing, body position, quieting of the mind and conserving of the body’s systems) is key to progressing in performance; as luck would have it I unfortunately discovered that this would be my area of weakness, my Achilles heel! Thank goodness my weakness could be somewhat counter-balanced by my innate comfort of being in open water. We practiced diaphragmatic ventilations, purging cycles and peak inhalations in the classroom and then we headed out to the pool for our first in-water breath-ups and static attempts. With our buddies in-tow we all attempted to slow our heart rates and increase our breath-holds as Kirk’s voice provided a soothing backdrop of constant counting, timing and advice. Day one in the pool turned out my personal best in static apnea, just over 4 minutes! Day two proved to be less stellar for me as I wriggled about and lost focus because of an increasingly imminent need to go to the bathroom, although my classmates roared onto such personal best breath-holds as 5:15 for Laura, 5:07 for Liz and 5:00 for Julie. As it turns out, while I hurriedly jumped out of the pool to hit the head thinking “it’s not polite to pee on my new-found buddies is it?” I returned to find out that they ALL had been peeing into their suits IN the pool the whole time! Sheeesh…don’t tell Jack…and therein lies one secret of static apnea my friends, being TOTALLY and utterly relaxed, urinary tract and all.
Day Two saw us gathering poolside first thing in the morning to do stretches and awaken our intercostals (the muscles that run between the ribs, and help to form and move the chest wall during breathing) sans caffeine. Then simulations of pressure at depth on our lungs through exercises of reverse packing and equalizations via frenzel techniques and grouper calls at the bottom of the pool gave us a preliminary ‘experiential’ peek of what we’d be feeling out at depth in the ocean.
We also made a shopping field trip to Blue Water Hunter that day where we each acquired new toys (gear) to aid us in our upcoming open water adventures. Suffice it to say we ladies did fair damage and Rob was sold out of a few key items, like Suunto D-3 dive watches, in a matter if minutes.
Equipped with our new accoutrements we headed south to a freediver’s paradise, Place of Refuge, in Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Park . The coral gardens of Honaunau Bay attract a host of ocean critters including shy green sea turtles and luminous tropical fish, and the calm clear waters of this cove provide the perfect environment for learning. Most of the island’s local freedive enthusiasts congregate at Honaunau Bay on a weekly basis for their own target practices. A short and colorful swim from shore finds you in water about 50 meters deep, plenty deep for starters.
Since it is such an ideal location and popular spot for training, the freediving community-at-large has implemented a number of pre-placed submerged moorings that Mandy & Kirk used to attach our “rig”. The architecture of this rig consists of a portable carbon-fiber pole frame, three floats, several lines, two target plates and a variety of clamps that allow the class to split into groups and to move up and down the lines unencumbered. Once we have the “rig” assembled, Mandy and Kirk demonstrate the skill we all aspire to and dive down with fluidity and grace, to effortlessly anchor our rig’s lines on the moorings and ascend with style belying their experience. On our ocean outing we were joined by Kristen’s dad Bill, and another PFI alumnus Scott Williams, who came along to get more of their own practice, take photos and aid as additional grouper callers when one of our ladies’ heads or hand positions went askew, and in general offer moral support. We also ran into none other than DB’s own freediving cognoscenti Emma Farrell , author of One Breath, who was playing a bit of hooky from her honeymoon that day at Honaunau Bay, whilst her hubby watched some American football!
As on any training excursion, we began with a cycle of ventilations, visualizations and facial immersions to get us in the mood; we then commenced our open water training with pull-downs, basically usi
