Re: How to make Solo Rebreather diving safer?

I know it's not politicaly correct. GI3 will never like that. Nobody should endorse Solo rebreather diving.
Hello Cedric,

My opinion is the following one.
solo diving is not admitted in diving community because of the necessity of sharing gas and because of the danger of fainting underwater due to use of narcotic gases (air).
when we switched to trimix and tek diving, gas redundency and non narcotic gases made solo diving not more dangerous then solo motorway driving 150km/h.
In my club on the french riviera we were even allowed to dive solo !!!!yes yes cedric (((-it would no be policicaly correct to tell you which club it was(((-
Soon later we switched to scr and ccr kiss...and there we discovered knew hazards...hypoxia and co2 hits....that made it again more likely of fainting.
This new hazards lead me to go back to buddy diving hopping that my buddy will press my o2 addition valve in case of necessity...

regards
