I think only you can make that decision. When I was first affected I couldn't even walk for several days. I approached things very slowly initially. It continues to improve years later but I NEVER look back in a turn on a motorcycle for fear of disorientation. If I were diving after a short...

I have it. One ear. I just practiced balance with eyes closed or in the dark. After a while I returned to racing motorcycles. Diving (or boat rides) is not a problem today. Continue to practice visual and non-visual balance. I avoid twisting my head around while moving.

Just don't pull on it. Free.

Always stay above your buddy. You'll use less gas cuz you're shallower and they'll use more because they're constantly twisting and turning to see where you are. If possible, use their octo when they're staring at the whale shark.

There is a strobe on a Nautilus. Not sure how bright. Nautilus may be good to 100m.

GUE suggests disabled burst discs before you are qualified to dive with them. https://www.globalunderwaterexplorers.org/equipment/config

Oooh nooo! Publicly available document on disabling burst discs! The horror! http://www.cave-exploration.com/papers/kaboom.pdf

Worrying about how an empty pony bottle rides is like worrying how your hair looks after a car crash.

If you are using a multipurpose BC such as an SMS 100 for single tank backmount, you can use one of the bungies to pull the pony up a bit tighter.

You could just take a ride out to the Oriskany, take a redundant air source and spend a few dives on the superstructure or going up and down the stairwells and vents. That we you'll see if you enjoy it. Just don't put yourself in a position where you need to go down to exit if you're intending...

Would you consider riding a bicycle solo?

It's probably just an old tank somebody was using to hold their CO bump gas supply.

It's much more confusing if you're a stoner and can't tell when you're narced.

Can we get the names of some of these sub-standard instructors please? Rick is obviously way too demanding and I'm looking for an easy class... :D

Bad link?

The computer is straight forward. The manual...not so much. Use it for a few stress free no- stop dives and practice some harmless switches like 28% to 29% and right back and in no time you will be very comfortable. Do not fiddle around with it immediately after getting out of the water or it...

Is there any .22 rimfire in those containers?

My favorite checklist item is HBWRGDC. Have beer while rebreather guys do checklists.

I prefer the head to toe method. But I've still gone in a couple of times with glasses on and I've found myself on the 20' line pulling along under the boat wondering where my primary regulator was...

Good. Maybe people will start to buy stuff made by their neighbors.
