Trimix

Nice work- it's tough to sound like a macho tech diver breathing the goof gas.

Who are you taking the advanced wreck class with and when?

Good questions,,,, I had planned on completing my Adv. Wreck this Aug. ends,,,,but it looks like I will be better off holding till next year. I have interviewed 3 TDI instructors,,,2 in WI. and one in MN.. I am leaning towards one of the fellows in WI.. He is usually booked a year in advance,,,,spec. in Trimix divers doing deep full penetration runs. The program is 6 days long.....classroom-1 day/pool-1 day and 3 seperate wreck sites-4 days...costing about $1300. He has a slot avlb. for next seasons class so I will be needing to place a deposit soon. Help$$$$$$$$!!!

Jason,,,, at some point I would love to give a try to a CC unit,,,,I have only read and visited with a few divers who have them......I see from your bio this is something you do....that is kool! For now my efforts will mainly remain in OC diving.....though if given a chance I would love to try the CC gear!

I'm sure you love CCR instead OC....especially tech trimix dives.

Not sure about y'all. I finished up my advanced trimix class this past month, but I went into the class not really expecting to learn anything new as I was pretty clear on the subject prior to starting the class. I bought all texts....tdi, iantd, padi, etc. Devoured them and read and read and read and read books/internet articles. Theory wise I do not think that I learned that much from the instructor that I didn't teach myself. What I did value is a little company/supervision at 330 feet for 25 min or so(and of course all the deco to follow).
