I know we have visited this topic many times on this board.
The topic point this time is to explain why a diver would need to do a stop half the distance from their deepest depth to their first required deco stop depth. (If I understood the question asked of me)
Example (hypothetical) The dive plan calls for a max depth of 300 ft, based on the BT The first stop required for deco is 100 ft BUT the half stop point then would be at 150 ft for 1-2 minutes before ascending to the 100 ft deco stop.
Are there any Opinions and reasons for doing this half stop - on this approach to deco dives?
