Ed and I went to school together at Florida Institute of Technology. He may have more knowledge and more experience with mixed gas than any other instructor in Missouri. Thanks for participating Ed. As you can see by the views on my blog Midwest divers are interested in Midwest cave diving!

I finished my trimix class with Ed a few weeks ago. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone. He teaches you what you need to know, and teaches from his past history. As with OW classes, seemes like there are a lot of Tecj instructors popping up that are teaching tech classes, but have done very little of the kind of diving they are going to teach, outside of their own training dives. Ed does not fall into this category, for sure.
