    Why do you need to perform the 5 point descent? The five point decent is all about calculating your bottom time and making sure you know were you went down underwater and making sure you have done everything to go diving. I have seen several seasoned divers forget to put their regulator in and remembered half down a decent. I have seen divers not know were they enter the water because they used boats as their object and the boats moved. So what is the easy way to remember the 5 point decent?

    The five points are S.O.R.T.D. (Signal, Orient your self to two permanent objects, Regulator snorkel Exchange, Time (This is the start of your dive) Descend)  Hope this help remember the 5 point descent
