I had a retail one stick I was using in a pool for an OW class and by the time I knew what was happening I was on my way up.
Well, since it already free-flowed during a dive on me... there isn't much worse I can do to it. Besides, how do you get to know what you're doing if you don't do it?

I made a wrench from some tubing I had laying in the garage and got everything taken apart, inspected, cleaned, lubed and put back together. Hooked it up and everything worked great for the first few trys, then it decided to free flow again. So, I'll strip it back down and get some new Orings and try again!
