Subject: Clarification on no necrosis from deep diving post
We believe that necrosis comes from long nitrogen exposures, whether
they be deep or as part of extreme deco, as well as completely wrong
decompressions from any gas, like what is taught out there now ( if it
were to be applied to real diving like what we do). Lukily, anyone who
does real diving quickly ignores this slop and gets the real truth.

  When I did do air dives ten years ago and more that were "deep" or
even not so deep , the bottom times were extremely short. I have never
done a long bottom time other than on gas, but I always did the decos
short and sweet, from a deeper depth. My big exposures are all on gas,
but here was no template for this behavior, and everyone said I would
pay the price . So far they are full of shit.

  There are WKPP divers who ar no longer on the team who did get
necrosis  in the shoudlers, but they were doing very long cave dives on
air at all kinds of depths, and they decoed on air as well.

  The big offenders in necrosis are the old "commercial" divers who did
long dives at 200 or so on air - they have the lesions and the necrosis.
