This comes from something that happened to me this year. After reading a reply to a post from another thread http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/ge...discussions/263742-air2-octo-inflators-2.html I began to wonder what others would do.
Please read this and only respond with your honest answer and try to place yourself in this situation at this very time. remember the information given is all you have at the time of the incident. This would be dive 37 since your open water 3 months previous.
This is your first dive, day too with two previous dives with this buddy. Your buddy in your opinion is a safe conscious and reliable buddy and still is. You are at 80 feet fresh water wreck. Your buddy has a massive free flow, your right there and he takes your octo. You signal ok, he returns ok. Your holding onto eachother you signal "go up" he signals "ok". Your still at 80 feet and as you start to ascend you soon realize your going to fast, your in an uncontrolled fast ascent, you try everything to slow down but can't, your heading up way to fast....in 24 seconds your going to be at the surface.
What do you do?
