I have met and taught many divers, and a basic thing for all divers to know is that some concerns to some people are different to others, like air consumption. 10 dives for an advanced diver may sound like nothing, but to a novice diver is an achievement, I myself have taught Open Water Courses to people that I have recommended to get more dives under their belt, I have also taught Open Water courses that after several dives, and great skills have gone to the walls in Cozumel Island, Diving although is a shared activity is a very personal sport, you should know yourself and as an dive buddy you should be able to recognize skills before agreeing on a deep dive, most shops in Cozumel insist on checking out any diver's skill before taking them to the more advanced and deeper dives.
