Welcome to town. Nice pics and great spot to do your first dives around here. Next, check out Kelvin Grove and Tuwanek...

Why have you not gone to a doctor? A medical professional is going to give you much more relevant information than random strangers on the internet. Good Luck!

Thanks guys, thats why I posted, was to get some alternative thoughts on the matter, that I may not have already considered. For the record, I am NITROX certified to 40% (PADI), so I am typically on EAN32 or EAN36 anyways. A follow-up would have been, "Where do I even get anything greater than...

Great pics from that dive. Looks like the water is pretty clear there right now. Might have to test my Christmas purchases out there next weekend!

If you call DAN, please post the result here. I have always been curious about that scenario. I do a lot of cold-water diving (4c - 6c water temp) and I wonder about the effects of the warm car-ride home. I would suspect that any-time you are in an environment hotter than your core body temp (37...

Could also try using some vasaline or chapstick on the mask seal. I know people who have faces like an old catcher's mitt (too much time in the sun!) who use this method.

You're joking right?? All you have to do is look at examples such: - Abalone - Coho Salmon - Sockeye Salmon - Atlantic Cod - Atlantic Salmon - Sperm Whales - California Condor - Spotted Owls - Eastern European minorities circa 1940 Etc, Etc, etc.. Man is very effective at the...

Hi all, I recently attended a seminar on DCS facilitated by the hyperbaric medicine department of my local general hospital. The director of that program espoused the value of doing your 5 min safety stop @ 15' with up to 70% O2 as an additional means of purging nitrogen and reducing DCS...

for that price, I assume it comes with the wireless transmitter and the heart-rate monitor?

Would be curious to know about where you are diving, how you rinse your gear afterwards. Could be residue from your neoprene wash, if you use one on your equipment when rinsing. Or calcium or other minerals if you are fresh-water diving. Could also be some sort of contamination present in the...

British did tests on this as I recall. They took goats from the maximum depth at saturation to surface at 75'min rate, and found that they could get bent from O2. However in 3/4 of the cases it was quickly self corrected (the body re-adsorbed it) and in the latter cases, standard deco treatment...

I have used both, and have Latex on my wrists and neoprene on my neck. The problem with the neprene (I find) is that the amount of pressure it applies vs. the surface area in giving a positive seal, buts pressure on my carotid artery causing headaches and neck pain. I am considering swapping...

IIRC, from my experience with BARE, it is 1 year since the purchase is registered with them. You could have a suite from 2001 that was in-stock with a distributor, but the repair warranty starts ticking at the time of the sale. If you have your proof of purchase or CC receipt, then they should...
