I was out diving today on a regular dive, and on the boat was a newly
certified cave student with his new "rig" : 104's in the ocean with a
wetsuit. Double wings ( with one of the inflators unhooked and behind his
back ). D-rings on the bottom of the tanks , apparently for some butt
mounted light scheme or whatever. Thermo manifold with yoke inserts. On his
left post was the long hose and the inflator. He said this is so he would
know it was rolled off. On his right post was his backup reg and his
pressure gauge. Oh, and a "Transpac".
1) Johnny Weismuller could not swim up 104's in a wetsuit.
2) The reasons we put the long hose on the right side are that it will
roll on , not off and if it breaks off, it breaks off in the on position -
the reason we have an isolator manifold. The last thing one wants is a roll
off in a share situation, the last thing one wants is a break off, roll off
on the long hose and the third reg ( the in flator). The last thing one
wants is the inflator rolled off so that you find out in the middle or a
runaway Charlie foxtrot when you can not get your buoyancy. Even worse
would be stage diving and having it happen and not knowing it.
3) In our rig ( DIR ) the left post has the pressure gauge - a non
event if it is lost - and it has the backup reg. If that post is rolled off,
then the diver still has the inflator to go to in a pinch if he has donated
the long hose, also a non event since the inflator can serve as the backup
to the backup in a pinch. I came all the way out of Sullivan on one once
with Brent for practice.
4) Anyone ever heard of stage diving? How about scooter diving? Hello,
Mom?
The instructor's name is Mike O'Leary. Maybe he can get on here and
tell me how wrong I am , and why. How about it Mike? Give us you thinking
here, please , Sir. You are teaching it, so let's hear about it.
