Re: Hammerhead 10 Foot Stop Elimination?

the tissues will offload correctly, but the gf limits are based on current depth, so even if you have say a gf high set to 90, and you are sitting 20 fsw instead of 10, the projected ascent will use the limit for 20fsw (which is a lower GF (or loading limit that must be met), thats why when you ascend past or to the next stop depth it sometimes instantly clears because you now have a higher GF allowed..
I don't think so. At least it shouldn't be done that way.

Let's say you are at 20ft and your watch indicates you should stay at 20ft. Why does it keep you at 20ft? NOT because you haven't fallen below the 20ft GF, but because if you ascended to 10ft you would violate the 10ft GF.

So, if you tell your watch that the last stop is 20ft, it should only clear if a direct ascent to the surface would not violate your HI GF.
