Hello-
I was down about 60 feet when my BC suddenly began to inflate. I tried to grab onto someone, couldn't and began moving up.
Luckily, someone then grabbed me and held me until they could wrestle apart the stuck inflator hose.
The whole thing was over in seconds.
But it got me wondering.
If I had been alone and unable to disconnect the inflator hose, and had started up fast, aside from trying to be spread horizontal to increase resistance, if i had yanked the dump valve and then turned head up to let the air out would it have been enough to overcome the air coming in from the inflating hose?
Thank you.
