First push dive with a Meg

jojo l'affreux · 23rd April 2007, 21:28

Hi,
Yesterday, with several friends (cavers : Hervé et Antoine Blois, Michel Meilhac, Xavier Meillac, Richard et Benoit Villemejeanne Laurent Vasseur.
divers : Cedrik Bancarel, Romuald Barré, Jérôme Martin and me), we were able to find way inside sump 2 (405m ;-51) of that french cave :
plongee souterraine - mas neuf

Only 20m more before being stopped by a too narrow fault.
But very happy of using the meg in order to pass it de-kitted threw entrance restrictions.
And also to be able to pass the narrow firts sump (see photos).

I'll be very interested in developping contacts with meg cave-divers (and others too

) who are using theirs rebreathers in bottom-caves sumps or narrow caves.

Cheers,

Frank.

Great shots. What in particular about tight stuff are you interested in. I'm planning a trip to a fairly tight cave in my neck of the woods in the near future and it would be great to learn from one another.

Hi Steve,

I am thinking morover in low ceiling caves, so maybe organising the Meg in sidemount configuration.

I know some australian cave-divers are diving their Meg and Inpisration like that.

Good luck for your push dive.

Cheers,

Frank.
