Realized I was checking my bailout bottle wrong for years
On a job in Mobile Bay, my tender pointed out I was only checking the pressure and not actually opening the valve to confirm flow before suiting up. He said, 'That gauge could lie, but air in your face won't.' How many other little habits have we all picked up that are just slightly off?

That's a scary one, especially on a deep job like Mobile Bay. It makes me wonder about gear checks in general. Do you have a full list you run through before every dive, or do you just trust the main things like pressure?

Check every piece, because trusting just the main things is how you end up in a bad spot.
