Have to say I would agree with this.

Ian I also think this is probably in the wrong section, sorry, surface interval would be more appropriate. My experience of threesomes has nearly always ended in someone slitting off and I think you probably need to be trained in the disciplines required for this type of diving.

I think if you want to go down the DIR route you are going to be diving with two hats, one as DO and the other when diving with suitably qualified people. Also and I have only ever seen one DIR team diving but I would not be a fan of inexperienced club divers diving in a line, I much prefer to have a buddy to one side where I can see them.
