Great report Gary and well done on the pass.

I saw Richie with some guys at Vobster on Saturday - was that you? If it was I'm sorry I missed you, didn't know what you look like or that you would be there! Nic and I were on our YBOD's.

Cheers

Graham

yeap that would have been me, I was trying to keep it quiet in case of course failure

most amusing part of the course was Rich comparing his Meg, with twin 2 litre cylinders, to Clare & Al's new RB80's with twin 12's attached, it was taken all in good spirits from both sides especially when Rich caught Clare taking their suit inflation tins for filling and suggested they'd be better as primary cylinders

was good to meet Al for the first time and interesting to see the RB80's close up

is this the unit that'd you'd be looking to buy if you went down the CCR route? excuse my ignorance, but is the training unit-specific? ie if you were to end up buying something else, would you have to re-certify on that unit?

You would have to do a cross over.

nothing really between the Classic, Inspo Vision or Evolution Vision, a few minor differences but nothing a day with an instructer running another course wouldn't sort out

if you wanted to go from an Inspo to a Meg for example, then yes you'd have to do an official crossover due to the unit differences

as I understood it from Rich when i asked him this specific question yesterday, the qualification I'll get will be usable on all three AP units, although if I don't get a unit for a while or not a Vision, then I'll do a refresher day anyway
