I am a fairly new diver (25 dives) and my buddy (husband) has 200. Before each dive, we would discuss our goals and plan. This past dive trip we realized something that we had not discussed before----where were we supposed to be in relation to each other in the water. Sounds simple enough, but I had always been swimming right behind him (as I had been taught in class) and he preferred that we swim side by side so that he didn't have to turn around to check on me. Made perfect sense to me once we talked about buddy positioning.
I am sure it is different for each set of buddies, but perhaps discussing that should also be part of the dive plan.
