You are joking aren't you mark
you attach a jump or travel line from the shot, to the lazy or deco station last pair up disconnect if all the tags are gone and you all float off, then if the lazy is full up you can bag off and you all move in the same direction with the tide!! that is really basic ffs
what charlie t said is correct,
you won't catch me hanging on for dear life next month old pal

We are not diving out of Dover next month so we will be using a lazy
And no i am not joking about Dover. a lazy shot will drift straight across the path of the Sea-Cat just as easy as a SMB will and you will be just as dead
We do fixed shot line ascents near the lanes in Dover and use john lines. We do have problems with masks being ripped off and regs free flowing and you usually come up with 10lb of shrimp attached to you as well
Its the only way to get on some of the wrecks. On or near springs its hard work.
If we started bagging off or using a lazy shot in the busiest shipping lane in the world we would be banned from diving there faster than you can say French Port Authorities.
Thanks to a disgruntled ex skipper stirring things up we are already banned from diving inside the lanes and have lost access to several excellent wrecks as a result.
When doing a shot line ascent 100% for deco is not advisable.
