Wow another thread where there is a difference of opinion. I belong to the camp that beleives in doing what works best for you considering the conditions. I've dived where there is a current and 5 ft. waves. I didn't wait on the surface but then nobody did we grouped on the anchor line. I've also waited on the surface for my buddy/group when the surface has been calm and had turtles and barracda come and check me out.
I'm not going to worry about everyone else. Before I jump in my buddy and I have already decided if we're meeting on the surface or down below. It's worked well so far.
