(Nice job of hijacking the thread there Peter... )
Watching the video again I have to say I have to slow down my handsignals a bit... funny that Doc and I understood each other... so I guess I wasn't that fast

To clarify, I am not DIR. I do follow many of the protocols and gear configurations, and strongly believe in being the best buddy I can be, along with always trying to improve my diving skills. I also like my computer and Sea-Cure :shocked2:
Ben, you are just jealous

Ya still got a 7' hose

OT: Mike, you may not know it, but I think this underscores a lot of the current animosity some have with DIR--random long hosers look to the rest of the world like DIR types, and their actions unintentionally get attributed to DIR. There's a thread floating around SB right now where some bp/w dude with no DIR affiliation whatsoever is going around calling people the s-word.
Getting back to Peter, I say the problem can be easily solved if we all grab our torches and farming tools, and march up to Santa Rosa to paint his long hose pink.

Yes and I even know how to use it! Practicing drills and skills makes a diver safer for both him/herself and their buddy.
Have you seen my drysuit? It is not black by any means. Red or orange would be a better description. (Another misnomer of the DIR legend that everything has to be black).
Seems even the DIR crowd is trying to disassociate themselves with the stigma of the word that starts with an "S".
As to pink...well I do not want to be like Ben

Perhaps they were just members of a crew team?
