Answer: The ppO2 becomes to high 1.76 ppO2. When that same 5 foot wave goes overhead when at 30 feet on 80% it would give you 1.65 ppO2. Maybe if your doing it right you can swim up and down with the wave action? Or maybe you only DIR in caves where you don't have as many adverse conditions. Now I just mentioned a 5 foot wave, what if its 10+ which is not uncommon in the Northeast where the pizza stained Doria T-shirt strokes dive. You know that if you keep putting a little more rope at the end of the line eventually all your problems will be over. I would like to know what inspires a man to go deeper into a cave. Is there something back there really worth the ultimate sacrifice to see? Or is it just the hope of fame for going deeper into a cave or deeper into the sea. Or is this all just WKPP GOOO CRAP???
