I am not sure I understand why you want to do OC and the CCR cave. I did do intro cave on OC then CCR cave a year later but going full cave on bot OC and CCR seems like overkill. I assume you will be training with Matt? Have you talked to him about your plans? I would definately trust his judgement in this as I doubt he will try to sell you training you don't need. I can't see any reason to dive caves on OC ever again having done CCR cave diving. Possibly OC sidemount for certain conditions but do you need to repeat full cave training?
hey
i would like to thank you for your concern and yes i'm doing the training with matt and i know he's not the kind of instructor who would try to sell courses in fact i postponed my trip to mexico for 6 month just to dive with him.
As for going open circuit caving its due to working in two projects in Egypt which will require both penetration and cave skills in beyond 90 meters of depth where the dive starts so it's not the time for me to try to do it on a ccr yet especially i'm just an elementary rebreather diver.
projects will take place in july buddying up with a british friend who is a well known diver( sorry this is as much info as i could say)
Later when i get to surface from more ccr dives i'll then use that training i took for that kind of diving
Thanks for your concern
