| Re: When did YOU jump? Johnny's got a point I guess. An Rebreather will allow you to boldly go where no man has gone before.
However if you don't have that ambition it might still be worth considering.
I went Sport KISS after some 150-ish dives (With Adv. EANx) and hardly any deco dives. In fact I'm not planning to make them in the near future either. (Although a NDL Rebreather dive may require me to do some when bailing out at the end of the dive)
My point is that you don't have to be a racecar driver to learn to drive a motorcycle. It's a different thing with some common skills...
Starting with Rebreather without any OC experience would be a different thing I guess as CC diving can end in OC diving very quickly (which is where the car/motorcycle comparison becomes flawed)...
I guess you'd empty your tanks surprisingly fast and your boyancy would suddenly be a problem (as unstable)...
Anyways to me the Rebreather is a means to enjoy the recreational dives better (silent, no bubbles) rather than a means to go tec diving.
If the shoe fits...
