DIR Fundamentals & Tech 1 trip report

[O-ring]

Was yours the class where the guy toxed because he didn't analyze his back gas and was breathing 50% instead of 30/30 trimix (tanks were marked 30/30)?

I heard Andrew had to rescue him when he convulsed...

Unless there were 2 classes in Croatia at nearly the same time, that was the class.

The oxtox in question happened to the LDS owner, who also mixed (and recorded as analyzed, even though no analysis was done) gases for the trip.

He flubbed, and got the lead for an O2 tank, and topped his tank with that instead of He.

Thankfully, his was the only tank he mis-mixed, and he recovered after a trip to the local hospital.

Yes, this was the same class. The diver was not a dive shop owner, only the organizer of the class.
