"Deep specialty" training dives and I'm insisting that we go to max depths. I don't think they will allow 32 as that would be 1.6 ppo2, instead of 1.4
I can see both sides of the argument. I am assuming that DEEP is >100' for sake of argument. I dont think that 32 is going to be a bad decision as you are not going to be at 132 for the entire dive. However out of prudence and what i would call responsible training protocol I would approach the dive with the constraints of not exceeding 1.4 as if the 1.4 pp was not at a hard bottom and teh entire dive was at depth of 1.4 pp.. AND if an equipment failure occured that you retained the option to continue down and rest on the bottom with out exceeding 1.6. After all this is a training scenario after all. Personally a 110' dive would be good for me to evaluate the dive from an instructors view point. Much like AOW definition of deep being greater than 60' so you do your cert at 80 +/-.
