The scuba diving buddy system is one of the fundamentals to learning to scuba dive safely.

Never forget your basics and never dive alone.

I’ve had a few incidents where I’ve rescued my dive buddy due to air problems underwater.

Had it not been for my alternive air source and responding quickly, I’m not sure the divers I rescued would be around today. This is especially true had they been diving alone.

The scuba diving buddy system is taught for a reason and I for one would never dive without a buddy.
