Thanks guys!!....
Trip reports will follow, I have done a couple of dives on it and WooooWWW!!!!!!
I had dived them before, in the army, back in the days...;-)
A strange sensation, feels like freediving and scuba at the same time!

Congratulations!! I bought one too. I have not received it yet but it will arrive for Christmas, it might be the most expensive gift I ever bought!!

One question... virtually no body dives CCR arround here. What do you think about solo diving a CCR? I know it is a controvertial topic, I know many people does it as well?? comments, suggestions, ideas?

Solo as in Solo? I'd have to say your off your rocker but I know people that do it. To me the risks far outweigh any gain. If your talking Solo as in the only rebreather in a group no problem, you'll just hate having to hurry through the dive and cut your dive short

Jorge, I see you are an instructor aswell so you are more then confortable in the water.
I must admit, I was having similar thoughts, solo on a rebreather..
Let me tell you..the first 2 minutes on my rebreather were scary..very different!
The last thing I think about at this moment is going solo..
Anyways, let me know what you think if you have done your first dive
Regards,

Diving solo on a rebreather is not something I would advise for folks who are just starting on a RB. It takes a while to understand the nuances of diving these things. There are so many ways they can kill you that you need time developing a set of reflexes and hard motor skills which will keep you alive should things go wrong. And these things will go wrong. I can guarantee this.
