Re:decompression
Pages 61-65 of TDI Trimix speaks only to the times of deco stops and not to their effectiveness. Yes the times are close (deco program settings dependent of course) between 80 and 100% but this manual does not speak as to the offgassing gradients of one verses the other (aka oxygen window). Yes high ppO2 does induce vasoconstriction but it takes time. So if your O2 stop is short then so what, if it is long then this is where back gas breaks come in to refresh the lungs from the high O2 effects. In summing up on page 65 the author speaks about "goofing around with stage bottles" as a reason to get shallow and this, echoing DRE, really speaks to poor diving skills. Trimix diving is serious stuff and one should be committed to practice to eliminate these poor diving skills. Some people might think it looks stoopid to dive square lake in doubles with a stage but I have done it many times to improve my skills and you'll see me there still improving. I hope I remembered my flame-retardant drysuit underoos. haha Todd
Safety first, ego last, actions speak louder than words or c-cards.
