I think it's a mistake to be taught the way described below. People =
should be comfortable in doubles even before they hit the water for cave =
classes. You probably won't learn much about cave diving if your trying =
to get the feel for new equipment. (Especially converting over to =
doubles) We need some serious changes made.

I pity the guys who show up for full cave and
have to totally convert from OW singles gear. Too many new
things all at once. Remove some of the variables on your own time,
ahead of the class. =20
Best of luck,
Mike
