but, but but ohhh ok see you in April (and here this was going to be my prime time to get rid of my like new BC, Sherwood regulator and 7mm suit... or at least keep posing questions to elude to trying before buying...) BER Thanks for the reminder on the Meet and Greet- - I almost forgot...

shipwreck show- - - - http://www.shipwreckshow.com Sorry I'm not familiar w/ Detroit and have no real idea where it is... particularly sorry that its looking like I'm not going! Whatever the case I know a few people that are going and it should be a great show and even better chance to...

Hi Paul. There's no real quick advise on any of this... other than "go diving" and in many cases even that is "all to simple". I must say I'm jealous, boat, summers off, and built in dive buddy... :-) Have you done much research on how deep you are planning on going? In some respects...

not trying to derail but am curious if anyone has thoughts on the Agir vs the Golem and/or the "H"...

Went there Friday 2/3/06 water was in that 57'ish range w/ a 3'ish foot vis range.... "current" noticeable, could noticeably watch silt and particulate flow... Outside was gorgeous with no snow on the ground except for a few places along the road in. This was- I'm sure- an exception to...

Agree... (and hope I wasn't being unfair) but I probably still won't be going with another... :-)

Bob - - glad to see your post... (I was there with him as we went from store to store) can't help but throw in 2 cents on this but on a slightly different twist and since you were there when my "H" problems began... On that final day of our "check out dives" for cavern and cave (w/ Penny...

I could be interested... any ideas of how much you were thinking... and/or are they ready for nitrox what year does the hydro expire and/or are they on the first hydro... Dave

sorry I didn't make it up to join you Jim. Life made it too difficult to leave town... much easier to stay at home w/ family and plan to play another day... water temp sounds pretty normal how was the vis- - 3-4' ? :-) 124' hugh... so how deep is that silt layer at the bottom? ;-)

Congrats on planning/thinking about going DIR. I suspect you will find the fundies class without a doubt exceptional and well worth it. You might want to consider "pausing" on the initial gear purchase and do even more "hands on"- for yourself by yourself research. Doing so could easily...

EXCELLENT. See you on Monday. Looking forward to meeting never can seem to find enough people to go diving with... No, haven't seen the wall and overhangs... gotten some glimpses at the rockish wall when between the 50' and 90' but never ventured very far. Had to laugh at your...

Looking at mapquest DC to Mount Storm WV is at 3hours 9minutes... and for "fun" yahoo's weather is showing it as partly sunny 49 deg high on Sunday.... hopefully Monday will be a little nicer outside, but I doubt it. I wonder if Santa is still down at the 90' platform?!?! (I'm...

If you'd be interested I can dive on Monday, but I won't be able to make it up there until noon or a "hair" before... I'm good on tanks... question more so for some local buddies that were hit by reality of doing a multi day trip over there and having to rent tanks at the same time... I...

uggghhh me w/o my date book... will let you know once I get back to work after Christmas... So are you bringing that many tanks, or have you found a decent spot over there to get airfills? Please tell all if you have a place for fills... :-) Dave

Will do ! Last year in the January/Feb. time frame we had a few lucky weekends where the air temp was in the low 50's and a dive at mt. storm worked well (not too much snow, water not frozen like everywhere else etc). You back in the area around January 7th? I might even be able to...

Should be in the 50's, probably the low 50's. There are two 20' platforms, one 50' platform and one 90' platform all of which are connected via ropes (which is a good thing as the visibility will probably be in the 5' range). I don't know what the deepest spot is, though I believe I've...

Any interest in diving at Mt. Storm on either 12/23 or 12/26? No elaborate plans; feed the fish, check out the platforms etc I'm guessing it will simply be a single tank dive... too cold outside for the surface interval.... :-) Dave

For what its worth I too would side on the "I was better to not practice" so to speak... Most everything I was shown about diving before fundies wound up changing after fundies (not everything, just most everything). Fin strokes were certainly on the top of the list... with lots of reading...

Can't resist to comment... Don't let everyone kid you Randy- - As Brian and I were driving up progressively became all the more "jokingly serious" especially after heading North of Columbus (it really would have been easy to pick you up...) tears started coming out of my eyes about 30 minutes...

ohhh crap Randy you make me laugh... I gotta stop looking at this board during work hours... See everyone Saturday. Looks like Brian will be coming up so Randy again the offer is there if you want a ride... I'm probably going to throw in a campstove and pots to warm up water for Brian...
