I use a pony on EVERY dive whether its 4m or 40m. Infact its difficult to 
dive without it as i take my drysuit inflation from my main cylinder and 
my bouyancy jacket from my pony. As its an emergency air supply then i use 
it for emergency bouyancy as well. All my dive bouyancy is from my drysuit.

Safety equipment is no use back at home.
