Hello!

Hello all,

I am an diver from Switzerland who just got interested in the rebreather technology.

I would like to try, but there are still a few questions that stop me. For one:

Taking a Rebreather course is not a problem, but my worry is that the guys I dive with are OC-only divers. What should I tell them about the rescue procedures? I can't ask them to take a RB course on the grounds that I took one... Not that I plan on needing to be rescued, but better safe than sorry and all that.

Cheers!

From one Swiss to another, Welcome to Rebreather World!
Es freut mich doch immer wieder "neue" Schweizer hier zu sehen

Wo bist Du den zuhause?

Anyway, again welcome on board.

cheers,

Hi Chernish and welcome

I think that before getting an answer to your question, you should think about why diving a Rebreather, what kind of RB, how you will dive it and with whom. You will then probably have the beginning of an answer.

Hi Urs, auch fuer Dich ein herzliches Willkommen hier auf Rebreather World!

Chernish,
Sorry, my french is non-existent anymore

, but since you live in the Lake Geneva area, you must know my good friend Francis Bletry from the Scuba Shop in Villeneuve???

salut,
RBN

Dein Fransözich kann nicht als mein Deutsch schlechter sein. Or something like that...

Indeed I know him. Even if his shop wasn't 20 minutes from my home, Francis is a person who is hard to forget once you went there

Cheers!

Bonjour et bienvenue

New rebreather diver I always dove with other rebreather divers but next time I will with OC divers and I think I will just tell them how to close the mouthpiece and give me the oc bailout. I'm also thinking about using a BOV to ease the operation.

A bientôt,

Didier
