    Practicing 'emergencies' / 'accidents' underwater - cue / training cards

    thats impressive - not often ive seen that sort of commitment to excellence in a new divier - keep it up -with that mindset my guess is youll eventually head down the technical route I have about 25 cue cards - on one side is the problem the other is the solution -no point practicing the wrong...

    An age-old question: ways to 60m.

    OK so just to clarify you would prefer trimix because it allows you to think more clearly ?not withstanding makes the WOB better ? so you are acknowledging impairment? have you ever been in a high stress situation at depth on air? and yes ive been much deeper than 50m on air, around 75m (thats...

    An age-old question: ways to 60m.

    I dont understand how people claiming they are technical divers can keep defending deep air- mental impairment is anathema to technical diving which is about complexity and risk mitigation I know we all think we can handle stressful situations because were so awesome but when we are in a life...

    Provocative talk yesterday at NSS-CDS: Toss out the rule of thirds?

    excellent comment! Each time you get into a situation that creates a stress or exposes a weakness is an importunity to grow, but not everyone wants to 'overcome' What was stressful on your first few dives is not stressful anymore because youve stretched your, lets say - stress horizon Going...

    How long can you expose a scrubber to air?

    I would have thought absorbing moisture in a humid environment would be more of an issue - at least in a sealed box its more controlled

    RMS Lusitania - sunk 110 years ago today

    I must say I get a bit envious when I see how many wreck you have around the coast - most of my wreck diving involves flying to another country - having said that its hard to beat the amazing vis you get in the pacific - on a good day you can get 30-40m on an 80 m dive - highly recommend the...

    Decompression plan vs. redundant computers

    you can do this on multideco by putting in the relevant legs and its pretty realistic - depending on BT youll do most of the deco at 6m, work out your consumption rate at that depth and set that volume aside ( plus some) so when you get to your turn time you can cross check with your TTS

    Riding GF99 instead of mandatory/safety stops

    I think hes meaning those that are diving these depths on a regular basis have based their decision on real world experience rather than a software model - No doubt your have hear of DR simon Mitchell who is one of the worlds leading hyperbaric specialists haas this to say about it and the bro...
