Re: Why do you dive solo?

I usually end up solo because my buddy couldn't make it that day or i end up solo because I want to stay down and my buddy has had enough and wants to go up. Occasionally I lose a buddy but no often.

I think solo diving on a CCR is slightly more dangerous than solo diving on OC and a buddy could easily save your life in a couple of the circumstances unique to the unit.

That said I just love solo diving. As someone said said before, I am more in tune with the equipment and I am totally focused on me and the dive. It feels relaxed and free. There is no pressure no one else to worry about and I really get a sense of liberation.

So despite the added danger of CCR I still do it and love it when my regular buddies are not about.
