The Ultimate SPARE AIR joke,crack,uses, make-fun-of thread.

Yes, it truly is.

There are numerous threads on this board discussing why its a bad idea. In my opinion they can be summarized by observing that spare air is an inadequate tool for the situation for which its is "designed" for. It just cant do what its designed for, namely get a person to the surface during an emergency from depth in a controlled manner. Any situation where it will work as designed, CESA will be perfectly safe.

hey... the point of this thread is not to discuss it being practical. It's to make fun of it. STAY FOCUSSED!

I've said it before ... a spare air is the perfect device for exiting a helicopter that goes down into the water. That's what it was made for, but the market was not big enough.

(one of my buddies uses his spareair for playing around in the swimming pool, for those days when we just can't get away to the beach... s/a doubles would be way more awesomer for that though...)

My favorite all-time SB quote is from Uncle Pug...

Watchu really want is the S.A.B. (Spare Air Bandolier)
Get two and criss cross 'em for extra redumbancy.

All the diving scenes they used to show on baywatch where the lifeguards were jumping off the boat with nothing but the spare air were as real as the lifeguards boobs.

The sad thing is, is that the Spare Air wasn't an original idea. I give you the Snork Air from the late 1950s or early 60s
