Leave it to the Air Farce :D

Just remember fit and comfort are the key.

Your lucky you didn't kill yourself or your buddy, I don't think it's right to make light of putting yourself and others in danger, and then acting like you didn't do anything wrong. If you don't have the training, you shouldn't try it.

Just being curious, how many ways have you been taught? Since I've been diving with one, and now you got me worried about diving with a long hose. :shocked: Just seeing if we can tap into your vast wealth of knowledge. :D
