12~13' should do.... be sure to use a crotch strap...
I still think I would be kicked out if I did go completely DIR as I would want to continue to dive with my "stroke" friends and buddies...... Is that strcitly adhered to?
Kicked out of what by who??? Is what strictly adhered to???
If you mean kicked out of DIR... you misunderstand what DIR is.
If you mean kicked out by your non-DIR buddies... it depends on how you come across to them....
If by strictly adhered to you are asking if DIR divers dive with non-DIR divers... some do and some don't... I do but pick my dives
I think there is a lot to be said if you are diving beyond recreational diving that if everyone is set up the same it would reduce the stress in an emergency situation.
Actually there are some DIR practices that are wonderful in the recreational setting too!
