Mark Gardner #AskMark I’m thinking of going to twins partly for a little longer bottom time but primarily redundancy. I'm not chasing depth. Do I need to do any additional training or is a case of strapping them on and doing a few easy dives till I’m comfortable cags51 #askMark hello Mark, I just became open water certified and was wondering if there was recommended waiting period before going to advanced open water or nitrox? Benjamin Szabo #askmark Hey Mark, great stuff in all your videos, thanks for them! I have a debate with my buddies about a specific danger of regulator failures. Not the stop-of-airflow side (it is obvious) but the other end of the spectrum - overblowing our breathing system.. Some say technically it is possible to get in a life-threatening situation in case a first stage fails in a specific way (probably combined with second stage failure at the same time), while others say it is technically impossible to get a dangerous pressure in your mouth (and way forward). Where is the truth? MpPhotoPro #askmark Hi Mark, I would like ask you for your opinion about Technical courses / diving. I'm Rescue Diver / Deep / Nitrox diver with over 120 dives mostly in drysuit (quarries, oceans and seas) and I'm thinking about step in to technical diving. Would you be able share your thoughts about Padi Tech40 vs SSI Decompression Diver. Both are max 40m however with SSI I don't need to change all equipment yet and stage bottle always will be useful in the future. sorry for long question and thanks for videos, they very useful Kent Georgeson #askmark heard from an LDS here in Texas that I need to sell my APEKs kit as APEKs has gone into receivership and we can no longer get APEKs regs serviced locally. Sounds suspicious but any insight on what's happening with APEK's? I have sunk a lot of money in BP/W, regs (sidemount) etc on APEKs..... Should I be worried??? David Hoffmann #ASKMARK What do you think about the Poseidon XStream as a regulator set. I‘m thinking about buying one but recent reviews a very rare and I don’t want to spend this amount of money while being unsure. Thx a lot
