depends on the length of the dive

George,

That slow assent from 20 feet to the surface is that slower that 10ft/min?
Also, do you incorporate a surface transition before getting out of the
water...say 10 minutes of resting on the surface?

What are you asking me? First, I would try to keep the time less than 30 and
even less than 25, meaning 25 starting the clock at the bottom. I would use
50-90% helium, 10-14% oxygen. I would use 50/50 and oxygen to deco on, and
maybe a 35/25 bottle from 120 especially if this were a second dive or multi
day diving ( this would shorten my high ppo2 exposure, this is not related
to the weenie bullshit about second dives, only the oxygen damage ). Ascent
rate is 30 fpm from the bottom consciously stopping at each ten foot
increment to be sure to hold the slow rate, and the first deco stop would be
at 190, then ten foot increments for 30-40 seconds until you hit the
standard curve, then lengthen the gas switch stops and eliminate the ten
foot stop and you should have it about right. Very slow ascent from 20 to
the surface. The whole deco and ascent would be less than an hour. I
personally do that one with about 45 minutes total. If you do the lower part
correctly , there is nothing to unwind later up higher. If you do not, like
most people do not, then there is no amount of time on oxygen that will stop
the damage, but will only make it worse.
