No it doesnt Kurt.

It allows you to stay down longer by removing the amount of nitrogen in the air you breath and replacing it with oxygen.

yeah to do deep deep dives you use a mix of different gases... sometimes Oxygen and helium which is called Heliox.

Everyone should do diving at one point in their lives.... its awesome

Air fills vary on type of air.

Normally for clean air its bout £5 for 10ltr or £7 for Nitrox air fill.

Worth it tho tbh!
