punkup,
What happened to your snorkel? I see this often in divers above basic cert level. I wont leave the shore without mine!
As far as the overweighting and air consumption... do you link these two events?... If so, why?
Did you identify anything (other than proper weighting) that you might do differently in the future if a similar situation presents itself?
Im not criticizing... I just like to discuss this sort of thing ... Im sure others can benefit.
OK.....
It sounds like you were using a j valve... is that true?
It also sounds like you would use a snorkel in the future.
You said that separating from your buddy was a "BIG MISTAKE".
Do you carry a "safety sausage" now?
Did your BC have a manual inflator hose?
Do you think "swimming like there was no tomorrow" got you further per unit air consumed than if you swam like there were plenty of tomorrows?
Again, no criticism here... just constructive discussion.
