If you are diving with a buddy, then stick with them as long as it's not life threatening. Deep stops are not practiced by a lot of divers, in OW training they were a foot note. If your buddy intended to use them that should have been discussed pre dive. That said, diving with multi...

Was this a deco dive or a rec dive? You seem to be interchanging t,he terms. In either case it appears you didn't bother discussing the dive plan and actions before the dive, an important step for every dive but critical for pickup buddies. If this was and expected deco dive then an you...

My two mk25/650 sets will be on eBay soon, specifically to be replace with Hog d1s. I'm not doing the swap because SP are bad regs, I'm doing it because having dived the hog I'm more than satisfied. Now couple that with being able to service the reg myself and it's a no brainer. Now the...

It would be helpful to have a single page where we can see all the advertiser banners. Since the back page reloads ads if you happen to blow past one, it's not easy to find it again.

I'd suggest posting to a photo critique site like http://www.photosig.com

Especially when I'm taking photos. I don't need photos of fins and bubbles, nor do I need peeps crowding me when I find something interesting. I Just make sure the DM is aware I will be lagging behind with the group in sight.

Dive shops that can support an SCR diver, or at least 40% Nitrox fills? Dive sites that are must see opportunities? What type of water temps should I expect?

This type of experience isn't limited to Cruise Lines. Many group "dm lead" dives turn out just as bad. I usually find a local dive shop and book a boat where I have the option of hiring a DM if I feel the need. Where I have to dive with a group... I'm always at the back of the pack where I...

All were covered in my SSI Open Water class....

Only thing to add to BT's list...make sure the D rings are stainless steel not plastic crap.

This summer one LDS is filling air for free.Nitrox blends vary based on percentage at other shops.Of course it's an 2 hours of driving round trip, so factoring the price of gas in it's around $3 per 80cf

I prefer not to lower my expectations, especially when I'm the one paying the bill!

Fly Quantus or Singapore Airlines... and avoid the issues ;-)

actually they have no chance of actually accomplishing it.

lol... I'm 6'5"... anyone even thinking about leaning their seat back is encroaching ;-) Very few flights in Economy that I don't have bruised kneecaps on arrival.

Im sure 350xFire will provide any details or hints you need... He should have spare parts to boot

So what's the best value all inclusive on St Croix?

Well this isn't just Airport Security, it's also Mexico.... That said, thanks for the heads up and I'll change my fall plans and head to USVI. Oh and while people talk up fuel cells.... let's wait and see how long it takes for them to find an excuse to ban them. I'm still waiting for Bra's to...

Heck, I've gotten to the point of comparing Econ vs 1st Class... with the extra baggage allowance of 1st Class the gap is closing

Doesn't even come close to making me want to rent! I want to LIVE I tell ya! Travel with tanks and it gets worse. For those worried about the Sorb restrictions, Sofonolime 797 is under the 4% limit mentioned below. LuggageFoward.com just quoted $217 for a 75lb bag shipped from US to...
