Re:DIR Details
Regarding the freeflows. As you know, when you inhale on a reg's 2nd stage, the diafram depresses a lever, which opens a valve, letting in LP gas. This already cold gas cools more as it expands. If it's cold enough, and there's water (or vapor) inside the reg, it could flash-freeze. This ice could cause the lever to stick in the open position, causing a freeflow. The solution is to shutdown the affending reg, and flood it with water, wait a minute for the ice to melt, then startup again. If you keep the reg in your mouth, keeping it dry, you may be able to complete the dive.
