| Imported post Hiya Richard Welcome to the board mate, your just up the road from me so we should be able to buddy up sometime. What exactly do you mean by extended range? Do you mean 'Deep Air' and if so why? I'm also becoming very interested in technical diving and intend to progress down that road but I wouldn't want to go past say 40m max on air in some of the cold dark places around the UK, myself and others in YD are about to start training towards our 'Entry Level Trimix' ticket... would you be up for that? if so PM me and I'll let you know some details. Best regards Dave (Edited by Dave Williamson at 12:36 pm on Oct. 1, 2002) |

| Imported post Welcome Richard, nice to have you with us. Always room for a few others! Happy bubbling. |

| Imported post Hi Dave, thanks for replying. I would love to do the entry level trimix course, as it would be ideal to do 40-50m dives with a clear head. Unfortunatly at the moment, I can't fully justify the cost of 1) the course & 2) gas fills. Having a 3 year old & another due in 6 weeks, my money is being spent elsewhere, and definitly doesn't leave any spare cash for trimix!! It is something that I am definitly interested in doing in a the future. For the moment, I'm quite happy doing 30-40m dives when I can, applying ERD techniques to these dives. |

| Imported post I understand completely mate, kids cost a bloody fortune, but I wouldn't swap em for a helium fill.... or would I??... |

| Imported post Wwll, your face at the weekend when you strapped on the Inspiration gave Brad a small amount of cause for concern!! Good to have you here Richard - if trimix is a step too far there is an Advance Nitrox for mid-november at a very reasonable price? |
| ||||
| Imported post yeah I wouldn't swap the little guy for any helium, but an Inspiration.... Hmmmm...... :thinking: |
| ||||
| Imported post Thanks for the offer, Driftwood, but I've completed the BSAC Extended Range Diver already. Would love to do trimix in the future - will just have to wait until the kids let me have some spare cash!!! |
