My father and I are diving with our club on the may 24 weekend, and the dives planned (in Barcelona new york) are deep. The first day is a 120' followed by a 90', and the second day is two 105' dives. We both dive with computers, but were wondering if we could add an extra stop on our ascent to help increase bottom time one the next dive. I am not talking about a mandatory decompression stop, that is well beyond my current skill-set, but a stop to help us off-gas if that is possible. We will both be nirtox trained by the dives (not that the math is any hard) however we will not be able to clean our tanks in time for the trip. I do however have an Al40 / an Al 19 at my disposal that could be filled with nitrox.
Now, if this is a bad idea (again, not talking about mandatory decompression) tell me straight up. If there will be no benefit do the same, but if there is a way to make my next dive after the 120' more than 9 minutes (without an insane SIT, based on NAUI table for example purposes) please tell me.
Oh, the trip:

Off topic, because someone will mention this: No, I do not have my AOW. I will however be doing this dive with my AOW instructor as he is another member of the club.
