You can see my unique "air bleed system" in action. I use old, worn o-rings on my regulators to create small air leaks, thereby reducing the chance of stagnant air in the system.

Brilliant! I knew it had to be intentional

Awesome vid , just curious where did all the trash re: bottles / tires come from ? Was there some type of refinery , manufacturing company at this site in the past?

There's a government (public) dock at the entry point where boats often moor overnight. There must have been a government dock in this spot for quite a while. The bottles are just past the outside of this dock. I assume they were thrown off the boats over the years. The tires were probably used as bumpers on the dock or on old boats (or maybe they were dumped as an artificial reef years ago. Tires used to be popular for that).

Lovely! I did that dive along the line at Maple Bay ten years ago, brings back great memories.
