Old fashioned Air

Air is the gas of decision for each plunge resort since it contains sufficient oxygen (79% nitrogen, 21% oxygen) and is modest.

The main issue is that the nitrogen your tissues ingest during plunge and base time is delivered on climb. This nitrogen load confines base occasions and the rising rate. Nitrogen likewise keeps you from going a lot further.

That is the reason air is best utilized for sporting plunging down to 130 feet.

Nitrox is effectively accessible besides at remote destinations yet you really want verification of certificate to plunge this gas.

Trimix

Trimix is a combination of oxygen, nitrogen and helium. Since helium is idle, it doesn't respond with our bodies at scuba profundities and allows you to have an unmistakable head. Normal Trimix contains 21% oxygen, 35% helium and 44 percent nitrogen. This permits specialized jumpers to go up to 197 feet or 60 m.

For jumps further than 60 meters, hypoxic Trimix or a combination with 70% helium is utilized.

Trimix is accessible at resorts that offer specialized plunging courses. Evidence of certificate to plunge this gas is required. It is a costly gas to utilize and jumpers use rebreathers to minimize the expenses.

Decompression gases

Utilized for decompression plunging, you want decompression blends that are 50 to 80 percent nitrox and 100% oxygen. Be that as it may, you should be a prepared specialized jumper to acquire the abilities important to plunge securely.

Business and Exotic Gases

Business plunging industry generally utilizes Heliox instead of Trimix. A combination of helium and oxygen can be utilized around the profundities 984 feet or 300 m! To go considerably more profound, Hydrox is utilized. It is a combination of hydrogen and oxygen utilized by exploratory business jumpers.
