Hi all,
I am new here, well I have been reading posts on here for awhile, but I just recently signed up. Last year I did a resort course down in the Keys with my girlfriend. I loved the dive, and I am starting my OW course May 9. My girlfriend, on the other hand, couldn't get comfortable breathing through the regulator. She said that she didn't like the restricted feeling. I am trying to get her to try it again, but the whole experience just wasn't good (rough seas, not enough training, she was cold, her mask leaked when she entered the water, etc.). I guess my question is, if I can get her to try breathing through a higher end regulator, will that reduce that restricted feeling? I haven't used different regs so I don't know.
Thanks,
DD
