I've heard some about this, Chris..How do I calculate where/how long
the deep stops should be, and do i need an O2 enriched mix or plain
air (my back gas)? Im guessing the type of diving I'll be doing
initially is in the 110'-50 to 70 mins range or else shallower-60-80'
for 100+ minutes.Any suggestions for reading material, plus where to
get it?
