    Air Breaks and CNS

    I've only ever done a handful of dives that were pushing CNS limits, so this is a theoretical question. Lets suppose I do some monster dive and end up needing a couple of hours at 20 feet. That's going to be way over 100% CNS. Assuming I do normal air breaks (12 on 6 off, or thereabouts) will...

    DIN Plugs in O2 Cylinders. Good Idea? Bad Idea?

    After hearing of David Frisks recent horrible accident my initial response was to always ensure I have a Stainless DIN plug in my O2 tanks. Benefits: 1)If the valve is accidentally rolled on, O2 will not leak out.This would prevent the possibility of the O2% in a truck or building increasing...
