Pro tip: 15 years of diving and the bailout bottles finally got lighter
When I started commercial diving back in 2009, we were hauling steel 72s on every job and my shoulders felt it by Friday. Now most of the crew I work with on the Gulf jobs runs little 30 cu ft carbon bailouts and the difference on my back is night and day. Part of it is the carbon wrap, part is the regs getting better at handling low pressure. Anybody else on here switch over and never look back, or do you still like the old steel tanks?
