OK so we know it is extending and we know that it is compact we even know that it is a flag for people who are in a situation where they need to get attention and get seen. However we also know that there are lots of other uses for the dive flag, some funny, some stupid and some are really quite helpful……..OK maybe one or two are quite helpful.
1. Should your cat sit on your keyboard and break the brackets that keep it at the nice angle that stops you getting wrist ache, you can use the dive flag as a prop under the keyboard to recreate the angle.
2. While diving with the flag should you see a lobster in a hole you can pop them out using the dive flag, this is one of the better uses for it.
3. Should you surface to find your boat missing and your dive buddy says to you, “I told you we should have taken more notice of the dive master” You can smack them in the head with it until peace and tranquility return. This use also doubles up because as you are hitting them so they become shark fodder you are actually waving the flag to get attention at the same time.
4. Should you be a fan of the Brazilian national soccer team, the World Cup is only a short 10 months away and being bright yellow the flag is perfect for waving and supporting the side at the match or at home!
5. If you spot a cat stuck in a tree simply extend the dive flag and give the cat a good prod with the end, this should shoot the moggy out of the tree and into the loving arms of its owner (let’s hope they can catch).
6. At an athletics meet should you find yourself in the relay team you could get away with substituting the baton with a flag, this way if you are in the British or American team (both who have had their fair share of baton drops in the past few years) you can simply extend the flag as you go to change over, thus reducing the margin of error.
7. In the event of the remote control for the TV going missing simply extend your flag and use the extended device to simply press the buttons on the front of your TV. Or if you find your remote too far away to get into your grasp extend the flag and drag the remote closer to you.
8. If you are out on the golf course and you suddenly realise that your caddy has run off with the flag on the 9th hole, simply pull out your flag and place it in the hole as a substitute until the rascal caddy can be located.
9. Whilst out in the car, when you come across an endless stream of traffic cones simply extend your flag to its max, stick the flag out of the window so it is just enough to clip the traffic cones over and watch in the rear view mirror as the cones scatter across the road. Note this is not advised on faster stretches of road!
10. While out clothes shopping with a spouse give her the flag when she enters the changing rooms and when she needs another size rather than keep coming out to get it she can simply extend the flag, place the item on the end and pass it to you waiting the other side to get the new size. If it comes waist high she needs smaller (result) if it comes shoulder high then the next size up is required.
11. Although the dive flag helps with reducing the need to have a scuba sausage we have seen the sausages get stuck and not fill up with air. In this case simply extend the dive flag underwater put it up inside the scuba sausage and fill with air. Should it not fill with air then continue to the surface and wave your sausage with the flag inside it.
12. Mark your territory, back in the day of the gold rush people marked out their area using pegs and string, when the next gold rush happens stake your claim with 4 sturdy dive flags fully extended!
Yes we know it is a little silly but basically http://www.TheDiveFlag.com has a number of uses that are completely silly but if you should need it then it is compact and easy to use for a number of different reasons it will be by your side.
