"With the announcement of the SDI Solo Diving certification course, numerous instructors have taught and certified well over 2000 divers in the USA alone. "
Frank,
Are you sure about that figure? 2000, when will Padi and Naui step to the plate? I'm impressed if it's true. Many rec.divers don't admit that they are solo for at least part of every dive and those that this step should be safer for it. I'm for any training or philosophy that is intended to save lives and raising awareness. Those that have spent years working on solo techniques probably won't take a class though.
