Marek K:But... but... Mr. Kev... what if I don't dive a long hose or bungied back-up?
(You mean, of course, that a diver shouldn't be diving that sort of conditions unless tech-trained and -equipped... right?)
Web Monkey:I don't mean "keep you safe" like he has a magic transporter and can protect you from all danger, I mean someone who has a second brain to make sure you're not doing anything exceptionally dangerous or dumb, and will generally watch out for you.
It's always nice to have a backup.

Kevrumbo:On doubles with isolation manifold shut down that post, go to your bungied back-up Reg; on a single with an H-Valve/Y-Valve shut down that post, go to your bungied back-up Reg; on a single tank with standard yoke or DIN valve, shut down the post and hope your Dive Buddy is right there to donate his Long Hose Primary. If no Buddy in sight, then feather/modulate the valve to get a few breaths as you CESA to the surface. . .
