wmw999 2,160 #11 November 20, 2013 Given the sub-headline, I'm sure her choice of spelling was deliberate Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

decompresion 2 #12 November 20, 2013 JohnMitchell Whew! That was close! I wonder how he feels about all this attention over line twists? I bet he kicks his publicists. Hard. Imagine if word got out that line twists are a common thing and for someone whit his experience at 3000' he is way above his decision altitude...this could have come back as a total backlash and not just in this dinky forum. I feel bad for Omar that those publicists just made them look bad. I did like that it looked like he checked altitude in the middle there.There are no dangerous dives Only dangerous divers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
