... Read moreในประสบการณ์การดำน้ำของผม การเจอกระแสน้ำพาขึ้นหรือที่เรียกว่า UpCurrent เป็นสิ่งที่ต้องระวังอย่างมาก เพราะถ้าควบคุมไม่ดีอาจเสี่ยงทำให้ลอยขึ้นช้าเกินไปหรือเร็วเกินไป ซึ่งเป็นอันตรายสูง โดยเฉพาะถ้าอยู่ใกล้หน้าผาหรือช่องแคบใต้น้ำที่มีกระแสน้ำไหลผ่านอย่างรวดเร็ว จากที่ได้เจอมา UpCurrent มักเกิดจากกระแสน้ำที่ไหลชนกับผนังหรือภูเขาใต้น้ำและสะท้อนกลับทำให้แรงดันพาขึ้นด้านบน ทำให้เรารู้สึกว่าถูกดันขึ้นอย่างไม่ตั้งใจและควบคุมความเร็วการลอยขึ้นยากขึ้นมาก สิ่งที่ผมแนะนำสำหรับคนที่เจอสถานการณ์นี้ คือค่อยๆ ปล่อยลมออกจาก BCD ทีละน้อยเพื่อควบคุมการลอยขึ้น และอย่าตกใจเพราะความตื่นตระหนกจะทำให้สูญเสียการควบคุมที่ดีไป นอกจากนี้ ต้องรักษาระดับความลึกและทำ Safety Stop ตามขั้นตอนเพื่อป้องกันภาวะ DCS (Decompression Sickness) ซึ่งเป็นอันตรายถึงชีวิตได้ การฝึกฝนทักษะการดำน้ำ และการรู้จักสัญญาณเตือน เช่น รู้สึกว่าถูกดันขึ้นต่อเนื่อง ควบคุม Buoyancy ยากหรือเสียงในเครื่องมือเตือนว่ากำลังขึ้นเร็ว เป็นสิ่งที่ต้องฝึกให้ชิน เพื่อให้รับมือกับ UpCurrent ได้อย่างมั่นใจ สุดท้าย การดำน้ำควรมีบัดดี้และคอยตรวจสอบกันและกันบ่อยๆ เพราะในสถานการณ์เช่นนี้ การมีเพื่อนช่วยเตือนและช่วยเหลือจะเพิ่มความปลอดภัยได้มากขึ้น และควรเลือกดำน้ำกับครูโทที่มีประสบการณ์เพื่อเพิ่มความปลอดภัยและเรียนรู้วิธีรับมืออย่างถูกต้อง
