Martini 0 #26 December 7, 2006 My mistake about the pressure at altidude, the website I looked at was incorrect and a further look verified your numbers, 1/8 atm did seem pretty low. I agree that time at reduced pressure promotes offgassing as long as bubble formation does not occur but bubble size, location and effect can vary widely. How did you arrive at a safe altitude of somewhat less than 8k? My use of 8k is based partly on looking at data and equally on intuition/experience. Not very scientific but we're talking about uncharted waters (pardon the pun). BTW this discussion is not just useful but as funny as anything I've heard recently; "why would anyone want to jump out of a perfectly good boat?"Thanks Tim.Sometimes you eat the bear..............

Shark 0 #27 December 7, 2006 Ben, I have often jumped the next day after diving. My typical SI is 18 hrs. Of course, 24 is better. My dive profiles are fairly conservative and it's usually a 3 dive day. I work in the "sky" so my one day off each week is Dive day. Shark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
