Rebreather World - View Single Post - How to handle both DSMB and loop volume while bailing out ?

Hi

I am pretty new in this funny world of CCR diving

I began CCR diving two weeks ago, and I use a 'rEvo', a small series mCCR.

During one dive last week, I suspected a water entry in the loop and decide to make an ascent in OC bailout. I find it was not so easy to control the loop volume while ascending in OC : I need the two hands to open periodically the DSV to dump gas.

So, I want to ask a (maybe stupid) question : how do you handle a DSMB deployment while ascending in OC : two hands to dump gas with the DSV, one hand for the DSMB's reel, I miss one, no ?
