I believe it was Pete Guy who often (?) said that you could teach a recreational diver all they needed to know to be safe based on what they were going to end up using, in 10 minutes.

Yeah, when ever I go in for my annual, or to get meds changed, I get the clearance signed.

Ha...backspace...backspace....it's tedious to be sure

I'm very curious, if you are seeing a doctor because of your "yes", and the doctor says you are good to go, why would you then say "no"? Wouldn't you simply have the doctor sign the form clearing you?

As mentioned, PADI will not have that. Whoever (or wherever) you take your courses through keeps those on file. With respect to PADI, the doctor's clearance is valid only for a year, unless there are changes to one's condition in that year. After a year, and you take another course, you will...

I really think the new platform is configured nicely for mobile devices. It is very nice on my iPhone, better than it was on the iPad, but not as nice on the MacBook. Change is never fun. I'm starting to get use to it.

and I seem to get them when I don't want them...hahaha...

Don't know what to say. I was able to go to the classifieds you mentioned.

thanks

It happened to me with the old SB. Started maybe in the last month. I was pleasantly surprised it didn't happen with this one when everything got started. I just assumed it was a Mac thing. Then it started to happen again. Oh well.

Hey folks, this Thread is in the SDI/TDI/ERDI Forum. Keep the Posts on topic, which is "SDI Nitrox vs TDI Nitrox", not SDI/TDI vs XYZ Agency's courses. Feel free to set up a Thread in an appropriate Forum if you want to do a multi-agency comparison.

In the interim, how about posting that the item is sold and you will close the Thread once SB is back to "the new normal"? That would keep the noise down in your classified.

Yes you did! It's all there.

I have the students do the float as the very first thing in the pool. It gives me an idea of their comfort level watching them in the water over that 10 minutes. Plus I have a captive audience to go over hand signals. Why waste those precious ten minutes? I only "make" the students do the...

Cool.

Commercials have been on. All very tense..."He's been down 30 minutes..." Lots of concerned faces and mood music

You really need to discuss this with someone other than us "random folks on the internet". Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) may cause air trapping. As a diver you understand that air trapped in the lungs is a bad thing. Lung over expansion injuries are the concern. COPD is a...

You can turn off all or as many of the Alerts as you wish. Just go to the Alert button at the top and let the drop down menu appear. Select Alert preferences and delete as you wish.

That is an excellent point. If someone is going to post that their instruction was lacking in something, maybe they could let us all know what agency it was through and when they took it. The agency and the time will make a difference, and let others make comments that are helpful.

Likely just as many hated it.
