Are you doing back mount or sidemount doubles? I see side mount doubles way more than back mount on charters. Congrats on the training!
We did back mounted doubles. My instructor cave dives on back mounted doubles and knows that I already practice self-reliant concepts, so he wanted to bring something new that I could learn. So rather than using a pony bottle, which I've got plenty of experience with, we mixed it up. This made the training far more interesting since I got to experience new gear configuration, a different concept of redundancy, and valve drills. He knows I do a lot of DPV diving since he's one of my dive buddies on the private boat I do most of my diving from, he suggested we mix in using our DPV's on day 2 to simulate how I most often dive. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed doing and learning something new.
