    I was wondering if anyone used this regulator. I have questions like is it good for cold water, ease of breathing, easy to service, repair. From the review I can find DX4 seems like a good first stage, but I couldn't find anything on second stage. Thanks.

    Lets see what happens with this statement

    I think the example given on how not letting the passengers to drive is not a fitting one. From what I understand buddy/teammat is not a passenger. He/she is a driver too with his/her own car. It's more like following/being follwed by another car. You don't let other one drive your car but still...
