Subject: Conserving air?
Date: Sun, 15 Jun 1997 13:38:14 -0500
Hello,
    I am a fairly new diver and wanted to ask for some feedback on how
other divers try to make their air last.  I dive with an Alum. 80 and
usually can dive for about 35-45 min to around 85 - 95 feet for 20min of
the dive.  I would like to extend this time if possible.  Do you have a
pattern of breathing you follow? I've been told everything from not to
even think about my breathing to  exhaling slowly for as long as
possible and then taking a similar inhale.  Any information, advice,
etc., on how to make my air last longer would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

Walt Egan
