Hey - now that PADI are getting into Tek-Rec, maybe they'll come out with a
Trimix version of the wheel.

  Ok, quick question. Each dive I do or have ever done, in any circumstance.
Is done using a Uwatec bottom timer and tables (PADI wheel for dives less
than 40mtrs with no deco) ( Stop Laughing this is a serious question) as I
thought this was DIR.

  However I get the feeling that on lots or recreational dives, lots of
people who dive DIR, use computors due to convienence. And I must admitt it
would be more simples to use one, BUT I'm quite quick using the wheel (stop
laughing) to calculate bottom times so there isn't really an inconvienence.

  SO my question is : Is DIR no computors for anything bar nothing ? and if
so what tables etc are people using to calculate bottom times on casual
dives less than 40mtrs (no deco)? or is using a computor on dives less than
40mtrs with no deco within the DIR frame ?
  Cheers
  Chaz
