Ive seen a lot of articles about Rebreather divers being solo, can you explain?
In accordance with BSAC procedures solo diving is considered to be outside normal recreation sport diving parameters and not permitted. Owing to the possible increased risk of hypercapnia, hypoxia and hyperoxia, it is particularly important to ensure good buddy monitoring. Unfortunately many of the early rebreather fatalities occurred while diving solo – it is impossible to say whether these events could have been avoided. It is essential that the buddy be appropriately qualified, experienced and properly briefed prior to the dive.
