■Buddy Breathing
If, by chance, your dive buddy should suffer an out-of-air emergency and you have no octopus or have a malfunctioning octopus, your last option is sharing your regulator in turns. We call this buddy breathing. Usually, you take turns taking 2 breaths each while slowly and safely ascending. Of course, having and maintaining back-up scuba equipment is something every diver should do. |
