I reckon you should fly down to Australia and run a course here. The weather is perfect for diving at the moment :)

Please give us a review when you've dived them I'd be interested to hear what you think. Cheers! Mike

I'm sorry if that sounded snide that was not my intention at all. I read multiple accounts of the incident including a written report from his rescue diver who is now suffering from lifelong medical issues due to the bends. My point of view is exactly that, a point of view. A story I read...

They hadn't even completed a cave dive to within 50m of the planned depth. Talk about jumping in the deep end.

Interesting question. I look forward to hearing peoples responses

Although I agree his was trying to do the right thing, I believe he was wayyyy out of his league and looking for glory and fame. Seriously, a body recovery to 270m?????? Get real.

Hey Rickta81, I just bought 2 near brand new tanks, in mint condition with a manifold and cam bands for $500 off gumtree. There's always tanks on there going for cheapish (for aussie standards). I have to admit though, I did have to drive down to Canberra to pick them up to save $220 in...

I don't think any underwater nav device is a good substitute for situational awareness, nav and buddy skills. A compass does the same thing although a little more thought is required than blinking red lights.

I have no experience with O2 cleaned regs or the procedures/theory behind it however I was under the impression that unless the O2 environment your o-rings are subjected to is pressurised, then you can simply clean and re-use the parts in question as the risk of fire will be minimal. I'll put...

Just out of curiosity can I ask why you don't like wings?? Not flamming or trolling, merely curious. Cheers Mike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There's a very recent thread on this topic. In summary: New/inexperienced diver: breath off reg and ascend Experienced diver who had practiced this skill and can multitask without compromising safety of himself and/or buddy: attempt 'feathering' tank valve and/or buddy breath depending on...

Air2 = death. Haha just kidding. Seriously though there are heaps of threads on this exact topic. I'd recommend using the search function to avoid whipping this dead horse any longer. ;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So he may have passed out while breathing from the long hose? Hyper ventilating, working to hard?? Hmm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man that looks awesome.... I may require a little more training before I'm ready for that though. Side mount here I come!!!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whats caused the fatality? Did Tao just pass out from working to hard? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow...... Thats tragic. So if I'm reading this correctly they were diving single cylinders with 2 stage bottles and 3 deco bottles???? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
