Hi all, my first post here
So I'm signed up for Fundies for March 2020 (planning FTW!) and the instructor suggested I do it in doubles, even though I'm aiming purely at rec pass and don't think I'll do too much doubles diving anyway. Her reasoning was that unlike drysuit it makes not much of a difference and I will get to practice valve drill. The latter is clearly positive, the former I cannot judge.
Do you think it's a prudent thing to have a first contact with doubles during Fundies? Or should I stick to what I've been familiar with and what I will probably be using most of the time afterwards anyway? Or should I do a doubles primer before? At some point I'd like to do Rec 3 or something similar, where doubles will be prerequisite anyway, but it's a question of at least a year.
I've been diving bp/w and drysuit for some 70+ dives now if that helps.
Thanks all in advance for your input!
