Nope, I wasn't born in 1999... I was born back in the 1950's.... I just liked Agent 99 in the TV show Get Smart!

Well, Martha's right now is closed, and Fred needs to have about 20 people show up to even cover his liability insurance (or so I've been told), so you have to travel. The viz in Old Hickory is about 5 inches and Percy Priest is not much better at 2 feet :-) I have dove in Lake Cumberland and...

Greetings from White House, TN Lance!

If you are a PADI professional, go to the PADI Members web site, login, and you can buy it directly from PADI. And it's not anywhere near $300.00 for just the instructor manual. They may have been quoting you what is called the Instructor value pack which includes a bunch of other stuff....

I live in Nashville, TN and I can say that there are several of us up here that dive in drysuits. It's the only way to keep your skills up, outside of practicing in the pool.

There are several around here. As already mentioned, MTSS is affiliated with the Cool Springs Scuba Club. Scuba Supply has the Nashville Scuba Club affiliated with it And Scuba Adventures in Hendersonville has the High Tide Divers Club affiliated with it. I know that the High Tide...

Well, it still boils down to "It's the instructor, stupid". If YOUR instructor didn't teach you trim, buoyancy, and non-silting kicks, then that's his/your fault. My PADI instructor taught me the frog kick first, and then the modified flutter kick. He also worked with me on my trim and buoyancy...

As far as Sony launching this soon, I wouldn't hold my breath. Sony has a tendency to hype products up and taking their time about releasing it. Having been involved in TV Broadcasting for over 25 years, I've seen it time and time again. As far as taking a HD source and then outputting it...

The ONLY problem I have had was the neck seal. I slipped when doffing the unit, and tore the neck seal pretty bad. So no, I have had no problems whatsoever with the seams....

I have had an Armor Shell for about 3 years now, and really love it. I looked into the DUI's and really couldn't afford to sink the $1600.00 into it at the time, and I found a Armor Shell for about $1000.00. The thing I like about the DUI suit over the Mobby are the Rock Boots. Hope this...

Well, I hope that everyone had a good time today at Martha's, despite the weather threatening. For everyone's reference, I dove down to the kitchen area (44') and it was about 60 degrees at depth. Surface water temp by the original ramp area was 66 degrees. Was clad in a 5mm suit, and it was...

A friend of mine bought a 84" hose from TechDivingLimited (www.techdivinglimited.com) some time back for his Abyss. I don't know if they offer a 90" hose, but I am sure they could custom make one for you.

There is a person in Nashville TN trying to get a DIR-F course there on 4/8- 4/10. Contact Randy Cain at randy@scubarandy.com or visit his website at www.scubarandy.com for more details.

Agreed. I would say that the course is SLANTED towards the software, but Michal did show the underlying math in the course. As a matter of fact, the only thing I used the software for was verification that the math I was doing was correct. We went over the little tables that is in the back...

He tried it AFTER all the problems were fixed.

I was talking to Randy (tndiveinstruct1) the other day and he was telling me that he was banned on here for some reason. He never got an email or anything saying why... but oh well... Drop him an email at randy at scubarandy dot com.... He did say that his instructor was VERY thorough and it...

JDog, I can't speak for Cancun Mark, but I will tell you this. He was actually pretty close on the spelling.... it is opprobrious, and it means: Expressing contemptuous reproach; scornful or abusive I must say that the tone of the thread was opprobrious, and therefore was right on...
