How does a diver run OOG?
How many times have you run out of fuel in your car?
What step do you take to make sure neither happens?
What is all this talk of Running OOG?
Does this really happen in real life or just on scubaboard?
Is this just an abstract?
I can't Believe any competent properly trained diver wouldn't pay attention to gas supply.
Are you telling me that everyone on SB isn't a properly trained diver?
Please explain.
Of course it should never happen but it is a risk and it does happen. It can be due to lack of attention, free flows, failed o ring, bad gauge, deco miscalculations or an endless list of issues. Proper planning is to stop those events leading to both divers ending up out of air and so with a high likelihood of death.
If I have a failure I expect to be able to go to my buddy for gas. If my buddy has already used so much that we will not make it to the surface then they have let me down. That 'reserve' is mine and not his to waste looking at fish or hassling lobsters because we didn't plan allowing for an issue.
