## How to Make Bubble Rings Scuba Diving
Bubble rings are a fun and unique way to play with your breath underwater. They’re also a great way to practice your breath control and buoyancy. With a little practice, you’ll be able to blow perfect bubble rings that will float through the water like little jellyfish.
### Materials You’ll Need
Scuba diving mask
Scuba diving regulator
Buoyancy compensator device (BCD)
Weight belt
### Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Get started. Dive to a depth of about 10 feet (3 meters). This will give you enough space to practice without having to worry about surfacing too quickly.
2. Take a deep breath and fill your lungs completely.
3. Close your lips tightly and purse them together.
4. Begin to exhale slowly and gently.
5. As you exhale, gradually open your lips and form a small circle with your mouth.
6. Continue exhaling until you have created a bubble ring.
7. Gently push the bubble ring away from you with your hands.
8. Watch the bubble ring float through the water.
### Tips
Practice makes perfect. The more you practice, the better you will become at blowing bubble rings.
Use your entire lung capacity. The more air you exhale, the larger your bubble rings will be.
Exhale slowly and gently. If you exhale too quickly, your bubble rings will be small and weak.
Form a small circle with your mouth. The smaller the circle, the tighter your bubble rings will be.
Push the bubble ring away from you gently. If you push it too hard, it will break.
### Troubleshooting
My bubble rings are too small. Try exhaling more slowly and gently. You can also try forming a smaller circle with your mouth.
My bubble rings break. Try pushing the bubble ring away from you more gently. You can also try exhaling less air.
My bubble rings float to the surface. Try blowing the bubble ring deeper in the water. You can also try exhaling less air.
### Variations
Double bubble rings. Once you have mastered blowing single bubble rings, you can try blowing double bubble rings. To do this, simply blow two bubble rings in quick succession. The second bubble ring will catch up to the first bubble ring and form a double bubble ring.
Triple bubble rings. You can also blow triple bubble rings. To do this, simply blow three bubble rings in quick succession. The third bubble ring will catch up to the second bubble ring and form a triple bubble ring.
Bubble rainbows. If you blow a bubble ring into the sunlight, you may see a bubble rainbow. This is because the soap film in the bubble ring acts like a prism and refracts the light.
### Conclusion
Bubble rings are a fun and unique way to play with your breath underwater. With a little practice, you’ll be able to blow perfect bubble rings that will float through the water like little jellyfish. So next time you’re scuba diving, give it a try!
