Ratio Deco Dive:

Dive at 150fsw for 27 min. 30 sec. Run Time: 33 min.
Ascend at 30ft/min. to 70fsw Run Time: 32 min. 40 sec.
Oh...and this part is wrong too. ;)
 
limeyx:
Yes, definitely dont ascend to 70 @ 30 fpm.
My first stop would be at 110ft.
 
I believe this is exactly why ratio deco should be taught in the class room and not published on the internet. Because without the whole idea being understood it leads to false ideas about how it works and is used.
just my 2 cents,
Milo

Oh well. Maybe we should stop the free download of deco software too.
 
Anyone willing to actually read AG's 4-5pg PDF should be able to figure it out quite easily.

I'm positive there's no brain surgeons on our team.

Well, the first time I read it, I went "W T F is he talking about", its not an easy read. LOL
 
Sorry didn't mean to sound like a censor.
Just saying that without the trainiing and the knowledge to go with the method it is not of much use.

The first page on air or EAN32 to 100ft is jibberish, but the 150ft 21/35 stuff and beyond seemed as straight forward to me as it could get, but I do admit to putting on the X-shorts and tin-foil hat prior to reading it.

I originally learned deco-on-the-fly from the man himself, and I liked it over RD for a short bit, but after using RD I won't go back as I find it much faster and easier to use. Contingencies and all.

Oh you didn't sound like a censor, but the same thing could be said about the deco software. There is nothing special about Ratio Deco.
