Re:Recreationall TRIMIX
Maybe Gert will pop in here and give his opinion too. I have been bugging him to rset up a GUE recreational trimix class here in the fall- right after his next DIR-F class. There is a need outthere that no other shop is taking seriously.
You would be amazed at all of the little details you miss at 100' when you don't think that there is any way you could be narked. This gas, triox, is really great for those dives in the 100'-130' range. It becomes really important when people start entering overhead enviroments- like shipwrecks! You get all the benefits of a clear head, which you don't even know is a problem if you have never tried it, and the increased no-deco time. Getting bent can happen just as easy on air, or nitrox, if you don't keep your ascent under control. There is a lot of misinformation out there about trimix right now- just like there was about nitrox 10-12 years ago. Now everyone dives nitrox and doesn't think twice about it. Triox, and trimix, will be coming down that same road in the next 10 years. IF you have the correct gas analyzers and the deco software it really isn't and tricky as people make it out to be. I am sure that you'll get the chest-beaters out there who don't think their narked at 100' becasue their so tough, but I have done air dives to more than twice that depth and thought I was just fine too. It wasn't until I actually went down with a CLEAR head that I realized how much I was missing- like the fact that most of the deep wrecks off of Milwaukee aren't really all that neat because they have been stripped clean of anything cool. I have even dove it on the Willy, which is normally just a snorkel dive for me, and have seen all kinds of little details down in the engine room that I had never noticed in my hundereds of air dives on her. You won't know if you don't try and this would be a great course to take without having to invest in stage bottles and other trinkets needed to make deeper trimix dives. Jon |
