Bonjour from Geneva, Switzerland

I join this forum few days ago, I really enjoy it, maybe a bit too much, my boss is not going to be happy.

With over 25 years of OC (Nitrox, Trimix, Heliox) behind me it was time to move on too something else, I tried for few months SCR but in reality what I really wanted was CCR. I made the switch to CCR more then 3 years ago and I do not regret it, actually I have not dived an OC rig for the last 3 years.

I started with a standard Inspiration but after few months of modification I realised that I had almost enough parts to build a second one. So there came the idea to rebuild a standard inspiration for my wife or training student and a brand new CCR to fit my needs. I ordered a titanium casing from Enrique and finally manage to put up a nice rig. The only part which are still Inspiration standard are the lungs and the scrubber cartridge. I guess my unit is very similar to Joe Radomski. You can have a peek http://www.rebreatherphil.com , sorry though it is in french.

For the me diving is great but I guess what I like the most as an engineer it is all the things that goes around it, I am always trying to improve things, modifying my configuration, that is what keeps me motivated to dive, having to test that last modification...

Look forward to meet your guys through this forum..

See you soon.
