    Aeris Atmos 2 Memory

    Adza, If you have the download cable just dump the computer after every two or three dives and don't worry about running over the memory. The thing you will notice is that the computer will restart the dive numbers. I'm not sure if this starts after the saturation monitor returns to zero or...

    Practicing Skills

    Completed AOW recently with a number of younger lads quite eager to get out and dive. I asked one of the guys for his # and told him that my buddy and I routinly hit the quarry at the beginning of dive season and when we get new gear or just to mess around practicing. If he was interested I...

    Quarry trained Divers

    Seems like alot of you fellas are getting sick out there on the pond? Preparation is the key. Be hydrated and take some crakers to munch on. If your really prone to it take some bonomine or motion sickness medication about 1 hour before you get on the baot so it has time to get into your...

    S. Did you get the vulcinized boots or the trek boot configuration? I have an older XCD2 pro Dry and I noted that this years models were changing from the 7mm vulcanized boots to 4mm boots. I wonder why this is? Also if you have the trek boots how did you like them before the water...

    Should I go for it?

    I believe you will have to take all the courses. As I have put in other posts your dive log should count, like working in the trades, but it doesn't. I would have to take the boat diving specialty to recieve it even though I have spent half my life working at sea? It is one of those....accept...

    Quarry trained Divers

    Yes you are correct, a quarry is the lake that remains when the mining is over. Some are very deep and large and others are fairly small. Some are crystal clear and others..... Some have wall dives and others have fish and other marine life. If you need the boat ride just roll your car...

    So what is NOT covered in open water cert that should be?

    Actually it works out quite well given to the tollerances of the situation. You should be back and ready to exit with a third of your tank. Normal fills are not exactly 3000 for a standard 80. Usually you end up with 2700 so your now coming on board with 900. Last time to 100 feet spent 8...

    I dive Sherwood and have no issues. Bought first reg in 91 and it is still my primary the seconday is a newer blizzard. the old reg is bullet proof and has stood the test of time. Not too keen on the looks of the newer reg but its low profile is perfect for being under the chin. All around a...

    Whats in your toolbox?

    Its polyurethane (sp?) glue that is water proof and bonds to lots of different material. It takes 24 hours to fully cure but will do so in the presence of water. It foams as it cures to fill gaps but this foam is not as strong.

    So what is NOT covered in open water cert that should be?

    I spend alot of time researching, reading, practicing and I dive with a really skilled buddy. In my early diving we did crazy things like back rolling out of a speeding zodiac and swiming around at 80 feet looking for stuff. That was the crazy days when you felt like you would never die. That...
