I have extensive experience with scuba and hookah. I used a machine from Kneene Eng, but the ones from J-sink and Brownie are also good though Browies are expensive because of the name.

Still carry a pony bottle with reg. and I liked a BC for control. Don't forget the dive knives.

It would be a good idea to take a scuba class, as all the same dangers apply to hookah diving at those depths.

I have been diving for many years, and have used hookah while gold dredging. There are some differences, but more similarities.

Doing a scuba course is sound advice.

But just in case your one of those dudes that for whatever reason won't....

then there's one thing you must never do on compressed air... scuba or hookah or whatever.

DO NOT HOLD YOUR BREATH!!!! Especially when surfacing.
Not going to go into the ins and outs, just take my word for it.
Ignoring this most important of rules can result in serious injury or horrible death... especially when surfacing!
