In sidemount diving, each diver carries two completely independent tanks & regulators, one on each side of their body.

While it is used primarily in cave diving because it is more streamlined and less likely to collide with cave ceilings and features, I find it also quite comfortable for recreational dives with a pair of AL40s.

It’s also a fun conversation starter with other divers who are curious about my gear!
