Rec Diver:Oh no, not George Irvine! Is he even a doctor? This is the problem with DIR...brain washing. I thought that you might be getting your information from another sourcce rather than form experience and knowledge.
But as we all know if your not Doing It Right, well then you must be doing it wrong. I wonder who was the savior of the diving world before George Irvine?
You know, you can complain about Mr Irvine, or probably any other people from GUE/WKPP that use techniques you might not be familiar with/believe in etc.
However, the fact is that they were the ones that got out there, did the experiments, smashed the boundaries of decompression for long dives at depths that would scare the pants off of most of us, and yes, made mistakes along the way that they learned from (and a lot of us benefit from).
is there some nice chart/algorithm that they came up with that will predict everything for you and stop you getting bent? No, but no one else has a foolproof method either.
There are plenty of people using techniques derived from GI's diving, and diving in a safe manner.
