Which agency?Would like some recommendations on a solo instructor. Ideal instructor would be more central USA such as MT,AZ,CO,ND,SD,ID,OK,TX and such!
For solo I do not care! I would rather find a instructor who Is very experienced in Solo diving.Which agency?
Good answer. For the knowledge, a good instructor is key. But if you want to use the card to show certification, it might make a difference (for example) if you have SDI or PADI. ideally, your instructor might be able to supply BOTH cards.For solo I do not care!

Right now all my other certs are with Padi.Good answer. For the knowledge, a good instructor is key. But if you want to use the card to show certification, it might make a difference (for example) if you have SDI or PADI. ideally, your instructor might be able to supply BOTH cards.
To be fair I more then likely would be solo lol. Have a few ppl that will stage off but the deepest they are going to do is 300feet so from 300-500 I am solo! Unless I find someone who has done it or willing to put in the work to do it!Solo 500 ft dives? Sorry, couldn't help myself lol
I don't know any instructors in those states, but honestly if you are willing to go from MT to OK or TX, why not just go to SE Florida and combine the trip with some good diving? That's what I did -- went with The Scuba Club in West Palm Beach, did my Solo class dives at the Blue Heron Bridge, then dove solo the rest of the week.Would like some recommendations on a solo instructor.

Pretty sure it came fromWhere did 500 ft come from? The solo classes do not train for that.
