So we define the ending depth for the first segment to be 20 meters

the same gas mixture as the previous step (used gas is left empty).
Ascent to 10 meters will take one and half minutes that is slower than
the fastest recommendation. However, as you can see in Subsurface's
calculations it is still marked with yellow, meaning somewhat
conservative speed (green would be conservative and red on the fast
side). After the defined 10 minutes at even depth of 10 meters we let

Subsurface calculate how we will surface.
If decompression is required these stops are taken into account and
can be easily visualized by setting the first depth to e.g. 40 meters

dive calculation Subsurface assumes a typical 9m/min (30ft/min) ascend
(somewhat dependent on the GF settings). For the ascent phase of the
