About the masking up in germany we just mask up in the truck so that you are ready when you get out.

That makes sense. I believe the pipe man should be masked up in the rig at the very least.

Why? By masking up in the rig your fogging your mask and further limiting your already decreased visibility. WTF teaches you to do this? I get pushing the button and turning the bottle on but masking up is unnecessary and dangerous.

I never had my mask fog up before putting the MMR on it. Also, settle down. I guess to each is own. I think it’s something worth trying out. I don’t put it on till last minute. A couple times I even went as far to lay my tank on the curb and get it after I lead out. As long as you can do it quick enough there’s really no delay.
