40-50m dives are warm up dives for early in the season. At that depth we will carry similar equipment to when we dive 50-90m. A 30m dive just doesn't prepare you properly for the deeper dives.
This said If i had been laid off diving for a few months Id jump in a lake first to make sure all my kit worked. There is no way id do even a 30m dive without a kit check after a few months off.
