do you think that you have to dive hogarthian to be able to switch a reg in
the water. this technique is one that you guys use as a method of correcting
a reg problem.
well we can do it in the open water also. i have had & seen divers with reg
problems & they if nesesary were fixed by switching fist or second stages on
the hang line or on or in a wreck.
dive on & on hank

Absolutely NOT!! If you lose a reg on you so highly regarded independents,
what do you do? Switch to the other tank and head for the door, right? And
you only have HALF of you gas! I on the otherhand, will have ALL of my gas.
Furthermore, in a rush to get out or for whatever unforseen reason, your
exit is delayed. Being solo, with half your gas, pending on the amount of
time you are delayed, you might not have enough in that one cylinder. With a
manifold, you would have twice as much.
Get my point?
Furthermore, just what is my environment? NE wrecks, caves (quite often),
and Lauderdale (on occasion). So, it makes sense to use a rig that is
perfect for all of these.......Hogarth

I manage very well, and yourself?

Likewise Troppo, maybe you should take your own advice and play golf.
