Your max depth!

Maybe he's talking about doing gas-switch extended no-stop dives?

45mtrs with stops and gas switching and then accelerated deco on anyhting between 60% Nitrox up.

Interesting thread, but what difference does it make. It's not like having been to a certain depth makes you a better diver or gives you some degree of respect.

I agree that the only reason to dive deep is to see something you couldn't see at shallower depths. Every individual has to decide when the increased risk of the dive is justified by its "benefits". For me, my deepest dive was to 254 fsw to get photos of the bow of the Carrie Lee on the wall in Grand Cayman. My housing is only rated to 200 fsw so I got lucky and it didn't flood. Trimix and a CCR made it fairly straightforward -- just a lot of deco!

I agree with everyone who says that our max depth is in no way a competition. It really doesn't make a difference, unless of course your free diving. I started this thread with hopes of getting some of those people that I've seen lurking around, to post their incredible max depths. Almitywife was in a thread that had pics of people with rebreathers who were heading down to the 400+ mark! That is insane and I guess I was hoping to hear some stories.

Nothing really, except the ones here in the Atlantic where they're not supposed to be. It's kind of a joke Archman and I have been running for a couple years now.
