I feel like this doesn’t have to be said, but I will say it.
You (Bob), as well as your team, make outstanding and really valuable videos. Please don’t stop, irrespective of if the video gets a lot of attention or not. Thanks for all that you do.
Thanks Meka! You are welcome. Ben Bos :-)
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on the subject of scuba diving. VERY clear and VERY precise! Your English is very well spoken, clear and concise with a nearly perfect vocabulary. Your video is not only informative, but very much in my learning style. I'm definitely subscribing.
I also label the inside of my second stage reg with my gas mix that it's attached to. This helps when diving multiple of the same regs.
I just set up 2 new stage bottles this video helped tremendously 🙏🏻. I see a lot of guys with the 2nd stage up high near the valve. Having it lower is way more comfortable and easier to get at. Thanks again for the great advice. We need some UTD trainers in Ontario 🇨🇦 👌
Glad it helped! And thanks for your comment. We agree and are on the lookout for Instructors in that area. So if you know of some instructors or divers who might be interested in starting a career in teaching diving or might want to cross over to UTD, please let us know via mail: ben@utdscubadiving.com
Great video
Very good video
Hi Ben! Thank you very much for this helpful video. As always, you offer really valuable information in all your videos!
I have a question, regarding the cylinders content. Could I use the same bottle, besides the issue of the labeling, with different gases? That is, if I have a stage bottle with bottom gas, once it's completely empty and the labels are changed, could I use the same bottle for oxigen 100%? or it is necessary some kind of cleaning process before? The same example could apply, for instance, if I had a deco bottle but, instead of a deco mix, I would like to fill it with air (cheaper, easier access) for training.
What is the standard material for stage vs deco cylinders? Thanks.
Hi Matthew, we think that the cylinders you wear on you side need to be aluminium. Regardless if they are called Simemount-Stage-Deco. The ability to be able to move the cylinders under water is crucial in all 3 applications and aluminium cylinders, especially 40cf and 80cf sizes are almost neutrally bouyant and have a good balance with regards to how heavy they are at the top vs. the bottom.
@@UTD_ScubaDiving Thanks for the thorough answer and all of your excellent videos.
What is the name of the instructor in the video and his contact information and where is his dive school/dive center located please?

@@konceptoriet thanx 👌🙏
@@benbos1925 I am in Libya :)
I have been watching your videos and I like your style. I'll be in touch.
This is the first time I’ve seen bottles rigged without a tank ring. This makes a lot of sense because it’s one less piece of hardware to buy, you don’t have to have your tank valve removed in order to install it. Where did you get your labels?
