I have met several divers who use the 'long hose primary donate" method for potential air-sharing: have your primary on a long hose, put your secondary on a necklace, if you have to provide air to someone else you
donate your primary and go to your secondary.
I want to switch over to this. I've shared air off someone using the long hose, and I thought it worked much better than using short hoses. I also like that the method gets my secondary out of the way.
However, I'm not trained as a tech diver. I have 75 dives in Monterey, CA and Fiji over the past 1 1/2 years, and I'm trained up to PADI Rescue Diver level.
What do you think? Is it safe to do this without getting training?
