Any dive where you are exposed to one and more new situations

Combining new stimuli can cause task loading, which is certain to lead to increased possibility of negative outcomes ranging from a bad taste in your mouth to much worse.

The hard part is to picture in your mind~ to understand and conceptualize from the descriptions given to you of the dive.

No matter how well you intend to be prepared, both mentally, physically and equipment-wise, every dive will be a learning experience.
