Hi - great site

After lurking around for a bit, I thought it was time to play and come out of hiding. Those who know me know I value really good rebreather discussion. Until recently there was some very valuable discussion on YD on CCR topics but heavy moderation of both rebreather chat and banter between friends (by non Rebreather divers!!) and suppression of personalities (banning/censoring) has killed this.

It is excellent to have noted some fantastic Rebreather discussion is emerging on these boards. I genuinely think this board will, over time, evolve into the best RB resource on the web, already there is a great diversity of discussion here and NO heavy moderation when the topics get heated, which it is inevitable they will do given the subject matter.

I have been diving rebreathers for several years and my particular interests are in cave diving and finding unexplored shipwrecks. CCR is a great tool for these applications. I am interested in improving CCR training both in the UK and overseas. I am also interested in physiology/diving medicine and decompression theory.

After an extensive period of self-teaching, I eventually completed Module 1 CCR several years ago in England and I am also a certified trimix CCR diver. I do not believe that the current training frameworks are adequate for CCR diving. Stuart, would it be possible to create a CCR training forum so we can specifically discuss aspects of rebreather training?

I have already submitted some photos to the gallery, I will submit some more, time permitting. I am interested in the application of dual/triplicate CCR also. A particular interest of mine relating to CCR diving is analysis of physiological symptoms and increasing safety on CCR by learning to recognise warnings of physiological changes.

Off to Malta tomorrow, I look forward to participating in some great Rebreather discussion on these boards on my return.

Regards

AnneMarie

Ooops, I better watch that here as well before getting my hand spanked again (not on YD list though)...

Welcome AM! BTW, I will be in Sharm again end of May if you fancy a trip.

Hi Phi

Now behave or I tell them *everything* LOL

I will be back there too in May (although I'm not sure of dates) as there is also the French Cave diving congress in May. If you or Ahmed have any more dates lined up on U533 I'm up for it, tis a pity we couldn't go in March

I was looking forward to that!

PM me your Sharm dates (I take it you're hooking up with Aaron again)

***Beanie*** · 11th April 2005, 13:32

We are working to replace the boat soon and will be able to do the U533 this Summer.

May 22-29 for the course, but could stay a few days more if have a deep-diving buddy.

OK you may buy my silence with a few beers in Sharm

If you wanna stay a few days extra we could do some deep stuff, we found what appears to be the entrance to a massive cave/canyon around 120/130 m, biiigg wall, I would like to go back and explore that, time permitting or else a trip to Dahab if you fancy it.
Is Ahmed joining you this time? And what Rebreather are you taking, tell tell tell

Look forward to new dates for U533

That would depend on if I will bring the Sport-KISS (110m max) or if my secret-weapon arrives in time then anything you want...

Let me know since I will need to book the trip this week.
