Clearing a MASSIVE kina barren

The New Zealand coastline, particularly in the north, is struggling to maintain its balance in the ecosystem, causing the kina population to get out of control.
That's where we come in.

As a urchin diver from way up North , we used to harvest when the skean of eggs were mature ,the end of October . There's a HEAP of those buggers ! I've been lucky enough to visit both north and south islands , was wondering if there's a " locals only" rule , or might I be able to spend some time helping , we had a buyer come up from Oregon and we had 27% skean pretty good return it was 11 % for the shipping from Kodiak ,Ak to Anchorage , then Tokyo. and were diving surface supplied air. HUGE tidal changes in Alaska , but , Kodiak were only 11feet or so ,some times our backs were out of the water. No decompression though , mostly 15 feet or so . NICE VIDEOS , THANKS

@therealcorokinaboys Ай бұрын

Cheers! Entirely depends on the weather as to where we dive that day, also we dive different spots at different times of the year depending on the quality of the kina. I'll skip over them if the kina is in an awkward spot or if they're too small. Usually just pick the best "line" for that breath hold to get the most out of that dive.

Man, i have megalophobia (fear of large things/spaces) which usually, and in my case too, goes hand in hand with astrophobia and thalassophobia. Though astrophobia is barely there for me, thalassophobia is pretty bad. Im much more freaked out by large things in the deep sea than the deep sea itself, but it freaks me out regardless...especially the part where you are above surfice and then transition to underwater. Now to the main point of my comment, holy shit do i wanna do this. Not only does this help the sea life by deleting parasites, but you can give fish snacks!! But no matter how cool this is and how awesome it would be to do this, the moment i'd lower myself into the water and see whats around me i'd instantly drown from pure panic 😅😅 so, thank you for making these videos so i dont have to do it myself and can enjoy seeing invasive species get fed to the sea creatures that deserve it 😊😊❤
