Info Is Buhlmann GFhi=95 really similar to DSAT?

I recall an article about using GF99 to drive your choice of stop depth. Anyone know where I can find it again?

Ah! That was it. I deliberately forgot, because there are a whole bunch of disagreements I have with his simplistic presentation. I was tempted to rewrite it, but I'm not as smart as you. But that was it - thanks!

Hey, rewrite it so the facts are right, send it to me, and I'll edit it so the language and clarity are there.

Yeah so my GF99 is always really low and only increases on the ascent from the safety stops.
I'm also usally just hanging until others are on the boat quite often. That's because I will hand off my BCD / tank to the crew then my fins before I climb a ladder. Often I will take off my inserts first as well and hand them up if over a reef so if a dropped insert easily recovered.

GF99 is usually low on NDL dives, that's the nature of them.

I've seen my GF99 stay at 1% even when in deco on dives.

Either I'm missing something or you are thinking about GFsurf. Doing a stop with GF99=1% seem useless at best, probably contreproductive as you are ongazing the non director compartiments.

Sorry not quite what I mean was that during the Deco part of the dive not at a deco stop.

GF rises as I ascend in the latter part of the dive.

Then you were off gassing the leading compartment, just very inefficiently. You could have still been on gassing a slower compartment
