I would like to post a couple of things which I feel the wider world needs to know, after a short chat with Il Juzzo. He knows not the way of the bailout, and has not learnt from his Jedi master. This is not the bailout you are looking for....
Quote Juz:
"There aren't many buddies I trust implicitly, but you [Digger] are one of them." - lovely, what a guy. You should see the list of people he didn't put on the implicit list!
Quote Juz:
"An ally 7 is about the same size as a steel 12." ??? I think he got a bit confused.
Quote Juz:
"You can get out off an 80m dive with 2 AL80s (bailout). One full of bottom mix and one full of 32%." - Seriously, someone do the sums, because largely I'm a bit tired and it will be more fun to see how much deco would be left when he runs out of gas, given a sensible bottom time. 20 minutes on the bottom sound resonable? Someone run the sums please...
It is my assertion that 50% or 80% would be more sensible. I get the feeling I'd get out of the water less bent, but have little to prove it other than how it feels numbers-wise, and a lot of tables and a VR3.
The root of all of this comes down to this. I need to work out what bailout to carry. I know what would be nice, but it doesn't quite fit, and on any decent dives I end up having to carry 3 tanks. Which is no good IMO. I can no longer accept Juz's advice or trust him, despite being my evil twin, so any suggestions much appreciated. I've thought it through and changed my mind so many times it's not even funny any more. I have 4 tanks now available, and I want to get them filled once. Or at least once a season or so. Dives from 35m to 80m. 2 x AL80 and 2 x AL60. Oh the numbers...
Digs.
