all very good advice....please keep it coming. I do know the instructor very well and have many dives together...so we do have a good dive relationship going in to this. Any advice, suggestions,etc.....all intended to see what experiences everyone has been through...and hopefully I can...

Any DM candidates have any advice for going to your first class with an instuctor and 2 open water students? thanks!

I am sure someone who have told that you got your MASTERS DEGREE yesterday...if you gave them a chance

Viz has been great all year.....there is a sulfer layer forming now....have run into it at about 50 ft. Temps on the shallow side in the upper 70's.....and below 40 ft...in the 50's. I have been diving there for 3 years...and this is the best I have seen it. I am going there this afternoon!

I was under the impression that as of this past January 1st you needed a passport.

My sightings have been over by the christmas tree area and the fish cribs. Actually got in on video last year. Not sure where the tape is though....really...lol

My weezle is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Besides being easier to maneuver in, it keeps me warmer than any DUI undergarment. I find it easier to detect when i need to vent upon ascent. Also, no squeeze issues. I dropped weight when i changed from the DUI undergarment to...

Ask your instructor, you may be able to combine the courses

I was in court yesterday, I just needed to show proof of registration....however, the lawyer that was there for the city was giving advice to those caught speeding or moving violations. In Illinois if you plead not-guilty and go to trial, there is a good chance to lose your license. To me...

Spring straps make it very easy to put them on. I went from split fins to the jet fins recently and love them. Still getting used to the frog kick, but so happy to give up my flutter, and so is the rest of the quarry I dive at. Mine was given to me....but i'll ask if it was the LDS or an...

I had nothing but problems with my seasoft neoprene....finally had my first dive with my DUI....and I love it. Not sure I will ever dive wet again...may want to get a 30/30 for my warm water trips.

Anyone who thinks their camera equipment and photo oppoutunities are more important than manners and being alert to the sealife and other divers.

Thanks Simon....I wasn't clear on that. I didn't believe it "rolled" over literally, but I am not familiar with boating/ship terminology.

please go into detail as to the definition of "list" . Is it a hard to sway to one side?

i was stung on the face by something "invisible" on a safety stop during my trip to Coz. I wear a skin although i have control of my bouyancy, just makes sense that there are things out of my control and i should protect myself if its available. plus, after 4 or 5 dives a day for multiple...

I always stick my face in the water with my reg, no mask prior to every dive for that purpose. Haven't had that issue since. Especially since its chillier water I have been diving.

turning 36 this year

nope, i read this board while at work ...lol, but i go diving for the love of the sport. It is interesting to read the different views, etc.....but i have to remember as with any news site, thread/board.....you take it with a grain of salt.

I have been diving with my buddy for over 300 dives...we know each others set up but still check prior to each dive and go over the dive plan, even if its in the quarry we frequent and not in an unfamiliar place.
