Pure strokery. I would not/could not dive that configuration. How many points of failure are there in this setup?

Look, if we just sacrifice all the benefits of sidemount, we can reproduce all the downsides of isolation manifolds.

 

[Robert H. Diver]

Total jackassery. Couldn’t pay me to dive that.

 

[Norwegian Cave Diver]

Weird. Complicated. If my teammate showed up with that I would not dive with that person.

 

[The Chairman]

DIR originated out of a Hogarthian philosophy of simplicity. This is an abject departure from that.

Please elaborate....

 

[Rollin Bonz]

Seems like a lot of added complexity and failure points just to avoid reg swaps and to allow isolation.

Abomination!
