Divers need "life lines" when diving in caves and wrecks. Here is few pictures from old limestone mine where I like to do cavedives. Permanent lines are of course absolutely must to find the way back to home from overhead environment.

Thank you Jonathan. Yes, diving is fun.:)

Here I am preparing to do jump. I make primery tieoff with my primary reel.

Here I have connected my primary reel to main line and I am putting the cookie to jumpline to make sure I find my way back to home even in zero visibility.

Now the cookie is in right place and I can go on my exploration.

Nice detail that your name in the tank!

After some divetrips I have considered to mark my gears somehow... 10 ikelite housings, 20 DS125 strobes all of them having same kind of charger and batteries....

Yes, it is good to have something personal to regodnice your buddys. Most of the technical divers look same because they have same kind of riging and black drysuits.

:D Good place for tecnical divers must be Bahama with sharks...everything have to be black...and gases are easy to plan to 6 meters depht:D

This yellow tank can get interest from the sharks:rolleyes:

That depth we can use just pure 100% oxygen from white tanks. Then we wont definitely get any decos.;) Does sharks like white color?

Thank you Andrew.

When I dive to 25meter depth I use only double tanks eather air or EAN28%. In 45 meter depth I use Trimix 25/25 in 2x18 liter 232bar doubles and EAN 50 and oxygen in decos. Bottom time in 45 meter level is between 20-40 minute. Dive time is between 60-90 minute. Deepest dive for my is 80 meter depth with Trimix 11/50 mixture.

When I am diving in lakes and sea I dont dive so deep. I like to do shallow dives in lakes between 3 to 15 meter depth. When I am cave diving I have to dive deeper, because in my home we have only mines, not natural shallow caves.
