I have been called disciple at my LDS until on a charter a few legit DIR guys show up on the boat yeasterday. The air was 35*F, we were going to 185ft with H2O temp @ 48*F, I was breathing air with a deco bottle of 100% and I was wearing a wetsuit. The DIR guys just looked at me in their nice DUI suits and with 21/35 (only going to 150ft) on their backs with this look of "you're not serious" on their faces.
Ended up a great dive and the DIR guys were great in the water, but my LDS operator had to stand back and think about my set up. I dive what works, and what I can afford (thus not having a drysuit yet or breathing Trimix).
But the look on those two with more training than I have, was priceless.
BAck on the boat my group leader, just to be a joker lit up a cigarette.
