| Hi all.
I need to point out that doing such an aggressive Deco profile was a bad call on our part. We knew when we called the deco that it was not sufficient but decided to go with it for all the wrong reasons. I guess we got too arrogant after two weeks of 80-100 meter diving.
That said, the diver that got hit on the dive had other factors contributing to the hit as previously mentioned.
- Drinking the night before
- Very tight suit
- Did not drink or eat prior to dive.
Of course the main reason is the aggressive Deco. But the other divers were OK, and this goes to show how these factors really make a difference.
As for calculating Deco profile for a 90 meter dive I do a 3:1 ratio.
As for the deeper mix, I would add a 35/25 (36m bottle), only for gas management issues. I see that a deeper deco gas might speed up the Deco and make it cleaner, but if you have the gas to do the deep stops I believe the result is the same with out having to carry an extra bottle.
In the case that I do add this bottle then I do on it half the time that I have to do from 21-9.
