The ones in the show are not RB 80's. Again, I told you that so far I have
the only one other than Reinhard's team and JJ. We have not explored with
them yet in Florida, only did long rides on them to see what would happen.
Reinhard and Michael just broke the European distance record using the RB
80. Local WKPP diving has been down for a long time so we have nothing to
report.

What other programs have been made and how do we get a hold of them?
I thought the RB80 would be a little more streamlined than the older
Halcyon's. The ones you all wore in the tv show looked really boxy and
heavy.

That TV program was finished this year and mostly filmed last year. We
made four programs at once there for a while.
With the RB 80 we pick up 50 feet per minute of speed, so we can go
about 8,000 more feet in the same bottom time, or get the old distances done
faster. We needed this to make exploration of side tunnels more reasonable
( some begin between 12 and 17 thousand feet into the cave ) and it mainly
will allow us to go further downstream in Leon Sinks where we do not expect
to have a sinkhole for miles.
Right now, the only people who have RB 80's are myself, JJ and
Reinhard's team. Halcyon is producing more of them soon. Mine was made by
Reinhard.

Subject: WKPP TV Special
I just saw the WKPP program on OLN for the first time. All I can say
is, VERY IMPRESSIVE! Before, I could only imagine what WKPP did and now I
know. I wish I could do that type of diving, but I know my current limits.
I intend to go a little more in my diving, so GUE Tech I is the next step.
For now, I am content to lurk on the techdiver list an learn from the
experts.
Now for a question or two: How old is this program and is the WKPP
using the new RB80 rebreathers? How much of a difference have the RB80's
made in distance since this program was made?
Thanks,
D Burnworth
