Hope that helps.

Thanks Brian

I have had several answers from different people on this type if issue over the last year and may not have chosen the best examples as I have not been DIR trained.

It's good to try and keep this in perspective with the "bollocks" signature, diving can be serious, but talking about it should be less so.

Interesting if i read that right, theres no mention of actual makes and types.

Regulators: One of the second-stages must be on a 5- to 7-foot/1.5- to 2-meter hose. One of the first-stages must supply a pressure gauge and provide inflation for a dry suit (where applicable).

True! did you all think DIR divers had to wear halcyon/AGIR and use apeks or scubapro regs?
