...begun doing shallow reef dives on 80%, very shy at first, i keep on playing with PP. of 1.6 at various depth for small intervals of time, them slowly increasing the level of complexity on more demanding dives.
Well when I started on Nitrox 1.6 was a good conservative number and 2 bar was what people used to do. Also I admit to getting in a fight with people over only using 1.1 bar or below on a rebreather, which I think is going too far, but I will admit that routinely using 1.6 at the bottom, finning part of a dive is pushing it. I'll do 1.6 hanging on a string in chill out mode but not rooting about looking for something interesting and especially not if it was a rather tense, not been here since I got hurt big time, dive.
