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.

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.
