Luis Espinoza
Luis Espinoza is a committed diver climbing the ranks from rookie bubble-blower to “future ruler of the sea,” despite the fact that he still needs three attempts to put on his fins correctly. Marine life has mixed reviews: the dolphins are undecided, the turtles are skeptical, and the fish mostly follow him around because they think he’s dropping snacks. His buoyancy is “pretty good,” if you ignore the brief moments where he drifts upward like a confused helium balloon. Still, Luis dives with enthusiasm, questionable grace, and the confidence of someone who truly believes the ocean will one day bow to him—right after he stops kicking the sand up like a toddler at the beach.
