    First Scuba Video

    I did use a Snake River Prototyping BlurFix3 CYD (Cyan) filter. I also corrected the color a bit on each scene. The filter seemed to be better the deeper the the footage was taken. The moray was around 50ft if memory serves. The deepest footage was the egg (around 104 ft), and the ray...

    SSI Stress and rescue of Fundamentals?

    Hmm, I want to be careful not bringing up the whole thing again. Do some searching on SB on "GUE vs UTD" and "Andrew Georgitsis" you'll find a lot of good reading material. Also check out http://precisiondiving.net/blog/the-gue-vs-utd-situation . In my opinion this stuff happened long enough...

    SSI Stress and rescue of Fundamentals?

For example, there is a local aquarium that allows people to volunteer, but they require a rescue card or above. After a few courses with UTD & GUE I'll probably stick with one of those agencies and...

    Any instructors in the NYC area?

    Thanks tbone and Jay, all good points. Would there be any disadvantage to taking both UTD Essentials and GUE Fundamentals except to my wallet? It'd be good to get a feel of how both are. evad, I spoke with Tim from Gotham Divers, and while they don't teach any UTD/GUE things they definitely...

    Any instructors in the NYC area?

    Thanks guys, I've already been in touch with Bob. I plan on doing fundies with him when I can, even if I take some UTD courses. Doing both can't hurt right? Everything I've ready about GUE fundies is worth every penny, regardless of what diving religion people subscribe to. I'll check out...

    Any instructors in the NYC area?

    Hello everyone, I've been reading a lot about DIR and would love to improve my skills. I'm trying to locate an instructor near me. I looked on the UTD website at instructor profiles but the website doesn't provide their general operating area. Are there any UTD instructors in the NYC area...
