I go about CCR solo diving exactly as I do OC solo diving. Every procedure is built around diving solo and solving my own issues. I do my own bubble checks with a mirror and carry the mirror with me. If I have a doubt I can check things on the dive. All of my gear is set up so I can access is and remove it if need be.

I plan my gas on CCR for having to go SCR on the unit. I also carry enough OC bail out to get myself out with plenty to spare. Every dive is performed the same regardless of diving solo or with a team mate. If I with a team mate then I plan on helping if needed and taking care of myself if there is a problem on my end.

I run more conservative PPO2's than most do and do a little more deco but I like being in the water so it is all good in the end.
