Where are the cave ratings in this poll?

I wanted to see divers experiences with the open water stuff first. Especially with the area of gas switching for bailout.

my wife was advanced open water

w/150 dives
I was a divemaster

w/650 dives
We took nitrox classes after deciding to go CCR.
We don't plan on ever doing trimix or major deco.
I'll vote when divemaster is an option

O/W Instructor, Full Cave, Deco, Heliair, Heliox, Advanced Nitrox

I could not make it through underwater basket weaving, way to intense.
