haha, no bends. i didn't even get narced. well, i mean, everyone's narced a little deeper than about 80' but I still had a clear head. I found a Yuengling Beer Bottle. It was in a part of the quarry that I've never ventured to before and it looked totally different than the rest. Big boulders and what not. It was dark, too. And I'll say it again ... cold. It was definately a proud moment for me. The day before I had beat my record at 124'. On the dive to 142' i had a single AL80, stayed down for 30 minutes total and still came up with 1000 psi.
Of course we couldn't stay at 142' the whole 30 minutes, we were maxed out for probably a minute, then ascended slowly to look around.
Note: I am not thrill seeking here. I was with an experienced diver and feel very comfortable with my diving. I'm definately not going out on every dive trying to beat my max depth record.

Very good to hear!! Congrats on the depth record. Giving any thought to mixed gasses?
