While not there in Knoxville, I am over here in Nashville.... There is an active ScubaBoard member that goes by UTDiverMatt that is a student there in Knoxville.... Great diver, and if you ever find yourself over here, drop me a PM, and if I find myself over in the Knoxville area, I'll do the...

Due to it's nonreactive, heat isolating properties, Argon is an excellent choice for drysuit inflation.... or is it? Skin can be frostbitten easily by exposure to cold Argon gas. . Funny, we are talking about using it when diving in a drysuit, and most people use a drysuit in... cold water. It...

Being in the buckle of the allergy belt (Nashville, TN), if you don't like the congestion, wait 5 minutes and it will change :-) That said, I tell my students not to dive on medication. I don't know, and perhaps DAN or a research pharmacologist has other info that I don't that indicates it may...

Was out there 2 weekends ago... Vis was about 5 - 10 feet. If you're going to be down in the ditch, bring the 5 mil suit at a minimum and a hood. As far as the "tickets" go, I would recommend have your instructor talk to Fred about getting some of the tickets for the shop over in your area...

I teach exclusively in a BP/W and the long hose... There's a shop here in TN that I teach thru a fair amount, and the owner has never told me to stop teaching that way... As a matter of fact, he has encouraged me to use it especially in our Rescue classes! Randy

Greetings! I just got back from the PCB and Destin area, and I must say that the diving down there right now is the best I have seen it in some time. Dove with Emerald Coast Scuba (www.divedestin.com) in Destin, and with Panama City Dive Center (www.pcdivecenter.com) in PCB... Trips with both...

Greetings Patrick! I dive a 5mm Titanium Hyperstretch here in TN.... I got the Combo, which is the 5mm Core Warmer and the 5mm full length wetsuit.... This time of the year here in TN, I dive the Core Warmer as a shorty.... Been down to about 50 ffw here in a local quarry as recently as last...

I don't take Sudafed when I dive because of the mentioned side effects, but yet, living here in the allergy capital of the US (Nashville, TN), pollen sometimes gets so bad that you do need to take something.... Alfalfa tablets from local health food stores.... Yes I know it sounds bad, but...

Hey all, I'm glad we all finally got to meet, and yea, the vis was kinda bad... ok it was VERY bad.... I'm all for closing out this thread (mod's can you do that for us??), and let's all get together again.... We can go to Panama City, or Destin, or Cozumel, or Hawaii... Or we can get back...

In regards to the tank, Fred should have some.... As for the wetsuit, mine is a 5mm full length.... About the only time it's not enough is if I drop down below 40' out there for a LONG time....
