What is a DIR course and who is giving it? Specifics please.
I guess that your dive buddies need a leader or atleast a good
example,are you up for it?
Use the proper gas for the dive. If you have a question post it-delete
the useles and ponder the critical.
Toss in 55 or 60 bar of helium on the next dive you do to 40 meters,
print up some tables from a pc and dive a no deco limit-you tell me if there
is a difference in the dive. Make sure it is some place you have dived a
shitload of times.
Pissed on? You made a statement, I pissed on the statement, if some got
on your shoes I'm sorry_EZ
