Actually 100 degrees beam angle in the wurkkos is pretty good, in particular if you are using several lights. But, yes it is good to have multiple with buddies (Just the guy holding one of the lights)

Beam Angle
Beam angle can make a big difference when it comes to the quality of your light. A beam angle measures the angle of coverage of the beam from your light. A wider beam angle means the light covers more area. Lights with a wider beam angle tend to have softer light than lights with shallower beam angles. Most lights will range between 90 and 120 degrees.What Beam Angle Do I Need for Underwater Video?
90 Degrees -
A 90 degree beam angle is good for macro video. Lights with 90 degree beams tend to be on the harsher side which makes them great for creating contrast. Generally, you will want two lights if you are shooting very wide angle video.100 degrees -
These are great mid-range lights. You might be able to get away with shooting wide angle with a 100 degree light, but you'll want to spend some time positioning the light if you have just one to make sure you don't have too much of a shadow.110 - 120 degrees -
These lights are great for wide angle video. With a 120 degree video light you may be able to capture wide angle video with just one light. "Say Hi to Carlos formerly of Xenote Experience (PDC) if you see him in those spanish caves.
