T.Kitchen:Guess you can say im a safety freak... and i always look at my octo on my main tank pointless (unless need to share)... so a pony just seems right to me... If i ever had problem with my main i have my pony... and if someone needs to share they use my pony... =)
Sounds like you need a new buddy.texdiveguy:Not true in terms of a failure of a valve to tank o-ring.....when that happens and your dive buddy is not close or paying attention,,,or you are diving solo....that 'pony' will come in handy. Gas planning and proper management of course is your first defense....but **** happens. A pony bottle is a great addition for many sport divers and the cost is minimal. I would suggest a 19cf slung.
