Deep Dives 300ft to whatever

AquaTec · Sep 9, 2002

Anybody out there doing any technical deep diving.
By deep I mean 300 feet or deeper.

If so it would be interesting to chat and discuss procedures, gear, techniques, etc.

I do quite a bit of diving below 300 feet and will be doing a 404 this weekend.

if there is anybody here doing such dive let me know and lets see where the conversation takes us

All my stuff so far is above 200. You might want to send a note to Mike Barnett (auemike) of the AUE. They do some stuff at those depths I think. Certainly some on his list do, Richard Pyle for one. If you are using V-planner they would be interested in your dives over on the V-planner list. I would enjoy reading some tech info on your dives but as I said couldn't participate.

I have read that some of the models seem less reliable beyond 300. Richard Pyle reported seeing a greater DCS rate at those depths. Have you ar any in yourr group had similar experiences.

my dives are to between 2 and 300, haven't broken 300 yet on mix. Like mike F. said, the AUE guys do 300+ regularly.

if it had been me posting about you... then that would have been funny... or you posting about me...

Fun that hurts isn't fun... we need to pick targets more carefully

Targets of opportunity are no good? OK, maybe you're right.

Hey.... how ya doin?

I don't have anything to offer in the 300+ discussion.... but I do have a question... how long are you planning to stay at 404?

Pug - good to see you are still here keeping it all real

Actual bottom time at 404, this has not been totally finalized but it will be between 5 and 10m minutes.
Its really all about deco time, and contingency gas
