JJCCR or AP Inspiration

[jacksonchapin24]

Im looking to get certified on a CCR in about the next 2 yrs. Im looking in the future to get into cave diving and deco open water diving. Should i go JJ or Inspiration?

Weren't you JUST asking about the JJ vs the Kiss Spirit?

The answer is the same, you need way more OC experience than 24 dives.

Also AP units are more and more rare to find and train on in the US. YBODs have been eclipsed by other options here nowadays. Revo, Meg, JJ, XCCR, Liberty even SF2 sales are all probably higher than AP in the US in 2024.

How many dives have you completed? What is your current experience level? Have you completed any decompression dives? Have you done any cavern or cave dives? It's fine to look at different units and compare available instructors, but if you have not completed the necessary OC training, then you have no idea what factors to look for in a particular unit for the particular dives you are saying you want to do. CCR cave diving can be VERY different than open water deco diving, and many people have different units for each.

Despite what anyone says we are not you so make your plan stick with it and get great at it

Did you hear about the guy that should have bought the land years ago when it was cheap
What about that guy, that should have finished his education, to become an Air Force pilot
Did you hear about the guy that should have continued with piano lessons to concert level

Well that's me

Did you hear about the guy that took up rebreathers late and everyone left him in the dust

That's me too


Ay not due to lack of skill but to lack of time diving rebreathers that continues to tick away
