Going over possible situations in gour head is one of the best thongs you can do, I think. I've had times when my reg was taken out of my mouth, had a feet-first ascent, had my buddy panic and thumb the dive from 100 feet, had my buddy lose control of their buoyancy, meaning I had to grab them, deal with buoyancy for the both of us, ascend and do a safety stop, all of which I had thought about and planned a reaction to in my head long before the situation happened.Norris wrote:Considering we don't know exactly what happened and the diver is the only one who does, most likely not. We don't like to speculate on things like this and its best just to take the lesson that things can go wrong and sometimes do. Drive around when not diving and mull things over in your head. "What would I do if?" "How would I handle something like this....?"
Proactivily make the unavoidable, avoidable.
At the moment, I'm thinking about what to do about a free-flowing regulator at 100 feet. I'm actually planning on getting a pony bottle today for contingencies like that.
