hi guys
i have recently dived with subex
the first time i dived with them was sep 08, they do a welcome dive to see what ur skills are like and see if u need a private guide for ur week or 2 weeks diving while on holiday
they did not tell me i was using air 28 before the welcome dive, and the only reason i found out was because of the sticker on the side of the tank and then asked what it was all about!!!
there are 3 dives a day offered most days with subex, 8.30,11.00,and 2.00 in the day
there is a night dive on tuesday night and they do thistle gorm,ras moe and tiran on certain days too,on these days there are 2 dives
a typical days diving for me would be 2 dives, 1 to max 30 metres (around 26 or 28) in the morning and 1 to 18 in the afternoon, dives would be 60 min long roughly longer if my buddy doesnt lash through there air,i done this for 6 days in a row
am i likely to have problems with %cns with those kinda repetitive dives??
to be honest i am kinda freaked with subex at the moment for letting me dive without knowing exactly what dangers there were, i am a new diver with 40 dives done and i know a good bit more now but the first time i dived with them i had 15 dives or something and i was just delighted to be diving at all and i ,honest to god, knew nothing about nitrox at all so when i heard the guy talking about air 28 i thought it was brilliant to be allowed to use this "new" air and i would have longer dive times,little did i know??
i dont really see why they are offering this mix to people the way they are doing it? every diver uses this mix when they dive with subex (except for those using EAN32) so its not as if u have a choice to use normal air,is it just a marketing ploy to get people to come back to them,or do they genuenly want to give divers the benifits of the mix?? what do they gain from all of this?
do u think its perhaps the culture of the german people to do things this way,nearly all the people diving with them are german??
