I don't know if it was covered in my OW or not, it was too many years ago. Before you blast me to review my OW class, which I should, how about sharing your opinions.
Assuming a square profile, straight down, and straight up. Not exceeding the no decompression limit (NDL). How much air you would need from 33 ft, 66 ft, and 100 ft.
I am guessing, at 33 ft, for a beginner, you should have about 600 to 700 psi.
At 66 ft, with a 15 ft 3 min safety stop, 800 to 900 psi.
At 100 ft, with a 15 ft 3 min safety stop, 1000 to 1200 psi.
Maybe I'd add an extra 100 psi for current, rough surface enviroment, hazards, etc.
Remind me where in OW did they discuss this.
