Why can't I dive twice on the same tank?

[QUOTE=bottlefish;8924]Hmm, re-educate, or find a new dive team :-)

Getting out of the water for doubles? Ah, well that sort of divings not for women really, they're too weak and fragile... OK, that was in bad taste (sorry!).

Whew! I don't trust myself to reply to this!

I always get a chuckle when I see guys show up on a strictly rec dive with doubles. I use them for tec dives but don't feel the need to try to impress the reccies when they are not necessary. I think it's a waste of energy. Gee, how hard is it to move a BC and reg?


I also have really good air consumption rates. It is rare to come up with less than 1400 lbs of air in my tanks. I try to arrange small tanks from the dive operation, if I can. Otherwise, I just bring back the air. I use it to practise many air rings during the safety stops. I feel secure that I would have plenty to spare, just in case.....
