As some tech divers have painfully discovered, there’s an escalating risk of decompression sickness (DCS) with Buhlmann algorithms as dives get progressively deeper and longer. The...

Divers still seek comfort in the notion of the “underserved” hit to explain unexpected incidents of decompression sickness. “Hey, my computer said I was fine.” NOT....
Armed with reliable rebreathers, expedition-grade scooters, electric heating, helium mixes, high-powered dive computers, and those all-important P-valves, today’s cave explorers are giving our collective underwater envelope...
Portable habitats aren’t only for cave diving. They have long been a dream of undersea technologists like Michael Lombardi, whose ocean space habitats were used during...
Introduced in 1959, the Italian SOS Deco Meter—the forerunner of modern dive computers—was the first decompression device used by sports divers that automatically tracked users’ dive...
The SOS meter was wildly popular in the 1970s and 80s prior to the advent and broad adoption of electronic diving computers like the EDGE. What’s...
4부로 구성된 이 시리즈중 첫 번째에서, GUE설립자이자 회장인 Jarrod Jablonski가 GUE 감압 프로토콜의 역사적 발전을 테크니컬 다이빙과 감압 연구의 진화하는 동향에 초점을 맞춰 살펴봅니다.
Dr. Alessandro Marroni and his team are preparing to test their real-time diver monitoring system that has been more than 50 years in the making. Called...
The use of trimix—a breathing mix of oxygen, helium and nitrogen—has become the standard for dives beyond 30-50 m/100-165 ft, depending on whom you dive with....
