A discussion about the way I ascent from depths of 20-30 ft make me wonder which way is correct
I have heard two different scenario about how to ascent from a beach dive.
At a depth of 20 -30 ft I watch my computer gauge while I ascent if I trig alarm I slow up .
The reason I was once told the shallower the more a chance of dcs (air expands much faster the closer we get to the surface)
The reason I asking I never heard of this before.
On a beach dive in 20-30 ft I was told I take too long, and the proper way to ascent is to release all the air in my lungs
and I would float to the surface much faster. It doesnt matter I still going to take my time from a 20-30 ft beach dive , they can wait 1 extra minute for me .
