Ok I have to chime in on this. The above quote is great congrats on coming up with that. I'm completely new to scuba and have my fears and doubts about my gear (all new and from lds no internet) but still have trust issues none the less. Being a veteran firefighter and now scuba its safe to say that my "choices" of hobbies are a little on the high risk side of the page and I have to admit as rough as some of the sb members can be THEY ARE ALL RIGHT IN THIS INSTANCE. Your going out of your scope of practice and cert, You should not be even tempting fait the way you are. Not only are you being inept you are being greedy, yeah thats right I said greedy. Why.... not only are you putting your life on the line for a thrill but ever other diver who gets the misfortune of being your buddy. Your not only jeopardizing your life but who ever has to go and recover your lifeless body because you dive the theory of "it won't happen to me" or I have learned enough from the internet so Im proficient to go out of my scope of practice and cert. If my buddies are planning a dive deeper then 60 ft then me and my fiancé stay between 50 and 60 on or about 52-55' for that margin of error. Not once have I/we gone out of that scope, two of our buddies are dive masters but we have not been cert or trained to drop below 60' its that simple. When you dive you dive with your brain not your ego. The reason I felt compelled to join in this rant is you have let it be known that you are willing to jeopardize who ever life thats with you and that is being inept, greedy and egotistical and would get you kicked off the nozzle on my line.
