Simon, could you get this stroke to subscribe to techdiver - we have not had anyone to fry in weeks. The best chance for neopreme to hold to any degree at all is the commercial grade G231 stuff that has nitrogen bubbles in it intentionally in the manufacturing process. This mateial will compress less than non-bubbled neompreme, and will rebound exceptionally well, but still has a massive buoyancy swing. Only somebody who does not know any better dives a neopreme dryuit of any kind. We use the G231 nmaterial for our hoods so that they do not stay crushed and rebound at deco to keep us warm. The problem is diving is that you have an expensive , upscale sprot that is taught by roofers and insects who are dumber than mushrooms and can't get anything right. I saw an explanation of oxtox on the GUE list that some guy got from one of the other agencies ( he threw it out for our amusement) that was cause for Baker Acting whomever told it to him. What amazes me is that the smart people believe the cockroaches and then go so far as to repeat the slathering moronity that is taught to them by the dive industry savants. This is yet one more example. What you ar "missing" , Simon, is just how freaking stupid the dive "educators" really are. Good thing we have these lists, or we'd all be Tai Chi breathing and taking deep air classes in bondage wings , steel tanks with wetsuits, hemlets, square lights, skin diving fins, neopreme drysuits, fucked up manifolds, tec bs's, slobwinders, impropperly marked bottles, stroke gear configs, stuffed hoses, Poseiden second stages, high speeed inflators, 1/2 inch port regs, etc, etc. Simon Murray wrote: > > I had a conversation with a long term hardened stroke over the weekend > and he told me that his non-crushed neoprene dry suit does not change > its buoyancy characteristics as he goes deeper because the helium that > he uses to inflate it penetrates the neoprene and stops it from > crushing. > > Sounds like one of the best stroke stories I have ever heard, or am I > completely missing something ? > > Regards, > > Simon Murray -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
