At 100ft, ..was about 7min into the dive..and BOOM...my primary hose blew off the second stage!
First things first..switch to Octo..stow the useless second stage.
Catch the flippin' primary hose , was whippin like a snake on hot coals..and stow ..behind my back plate.. many bubbles..
(had plenty of gas..no way am I goin to violate my Steel HP 80)..breathed it down to about 1000lbs, during ascent..then shut her down.. I always use a pony goin to 100ft..
Was the only time I've used my pony for me..NICE.
(Capt said it looked like a volcano erupted...he had a safety diver jump in and had to O2 ready..Nice..but didn't need either)
I limit my depth with a single 80 to 80' with plenty of back up gas for the "what if factor" Beyond 80 stayin within recreational limits..I use a single with pony
My Doubles are for..Deeper w/ Deco..and
any dive with Overhead ...can't have bubbles knockin' stuff off...better be able to do a quick shut down..
And yes, I rig up the pony when I'm on doubles.
