That will be here before you know it! Sounds like you have a huge leg up. Would love to hear about your experience.

Day 5 with the Choptima was great. We enjoyed a leisure 72 min dive, during which we did a few skills. For the most part, we were just diving. We got to capture some nice pictures (All pictures were taken by Paul Heinerth on his GoPro). I felt pretty comfortable on day 5 tbh. I had a fun dive...

I have not had any challenges with the loops yet tbh. what issues have you had with them?

i originally had mine on my right side, between the dring and my plate. I noticed that I was significantly right side heavy, because the O2 valve and first stage are on the right as well. I moved it to my left side, and its worked great thus far.

thank you! Been learning every day! Looking forward to hearing about your experience.

Thanks a lot!

sounds good, I will talk to him about it eventually. I plan on diving it the way it came for now, and see if anything changes with time, familiarity, comfort.

Day 4 with the Choptima! Buoyancy control felt a lot more intuitive and tight today! Lots of diving and skills! Our first dive lasted for 100 mins, during which I received an exclusive tour of Hudson Grotto from Paul Heinerth, and also got to scrub the 20ft platform with Paul! I got to make...

Well, my instructor is Paul Heinerth! He is an amazing individual, great diver and instructor, and has decades of experience diving with CCRs! He has also been diving the Choptima primarily since it came out, which was important to me! I also got a chance to speak to a handful of his students as...

I will ask my instructor about this! If you dont mind, maybe you could make a short video showing me how to as well. Maybe I can adjust it a little ahead of tomorrow. Thank you for sharing!

Would I need to have DR fo that, or is that something I can do. It did not feel as bad on day 3, but i think that is more of a comfort thing. Times where loop volume was well below minimum, it still felt like it was not letting enough in. Please let me know, thanks!

Day 3 with the Choptima! I am happy to report that I have transitioned from feeling like putting my rebreather up for sale, to feeling amazed at, and mind-blown by how amazing of a tool this is! I’m also happy to report that I only used up 1500 psi of O2 from an AL12 in 3 hrs of diving (2...

lmaooo! definitely did not come with a time machine!

Its good to hear that! I think I might need to move the choptima up a little bit, so that I have some more "hose" to point down. Let me know what your experience has been like thus far. Thank you!

Thank you! I will definitely keep that in mind ahead of tomorrow!

Thank you sm! They really are!
