I have been diving air since 1971 (30 years). I dive my limits, stay within the dive profile set by the boat captains, watch the tables, do my safety stops when diving deep and have never been in any type of diving accident. PS I don't use a computer just depth and bottom timer.


The first line and the fact that deep dives are done on air should be cause for concern. Talk to the commercial divers about air and see why all of look 'old' before their time and have serious bone issues especially in the hips and vertibral column.
