I am sure G will address this, but I found that after a week or so of diving the halcyon, one finds its' sweet spot and at that point it breathes almost as well as OC. I was doing so "post graduate" drills with my instructor (wrestling, ripping masks off, unplugging drive gas, that sort of thing) and decided to flip to OC. For a moment I was confused as it didn't seem any different, so I grabbed the short hose around my neck and again it felt the same. At that point, I knew I knew where the sweet spot was. Like all RB's it takes some getting used to, but if there are those that breathe better, I would really be impressed.

Well done George, Jarrod and the rest of the WKPP. Just out of interest, I have heard many people say the Halcyon breathes like a pig. It is obvious from your dives and those done in the Ressel that is is the tool for the job. I was wondering if the WOB would be a problem If you had to swim out? I know you have more than enough scooter back up and with your incredible fitness it probably wouldnt matter if you were breathing off Dacor regs. > Flame away ;) > > Scott > -- > Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'. > Send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to `techdiver-request@aquanaut.com'. -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
