Wow, I always joke about how getting getting a loved one into diving just because you're nito it is one of the worst reason for diving... It's like my dad trying to get me into playing golf and off surfing. For all the parents out there, if your kids aren't into a certain sport and you push...

Jessica Alba is hot!!! :D Aside from that, from the looks of the trailer the movie seemed fairy accurate (as accurate as hollywood gets) Like those people are actually certified, they're actually using real gears, and scuba seemed finally to be used for purposes other than fighting 20ft...

That or you can also look into Expert Zoom or Twin Speed, good fins and their prices have really dropped recently. Btw, shouldn't this be under the Fin thread? :D

I say go high pressure steel, but it also means that you're gonna have to convert your reg into DIN setting. Otherwise you can also work on that breathing. I'm still yet to see an experience diver that hasn't improve his/her air consumption since their first dives. Besides, imagine how...

When I descend in my drysuit, I usually orient myself so that my head is pointing upwar, then I look up so the air would escape my neckseal due to the shape of our neck muscles. This is also how I vent out my air since that dam* dump valve just never seemed to be working fast enough. Of course...

Thats actually kinda interesting... I started breathing Aqualung Titans, but ended up settling with the B2 that I just fell in love w/. And now looks like the Titans I keep in the corner is gonna be a rental reg for da scuba club. Still, if a novice but serious diver comes to me for gear...

I think you just carry it in your hands, noone's gonna stop you. :god: Also, when I left for Taiwan 2 weeks ago I ACCIDENTLY left my knife attached to my bc... and no one caught me. Also the reg in my carry on just went right through the checkpoint... no alarm sound, no double-check...

That's awesome, just remember to start making friends with the smaller students in the course from day one so you dont have to tow someone twice your size out of 20ft waves. Can tell you right now it's not all that fun.

Da*n it, we need more flashy clothing line and hot babes in two-piece, just like the way surfing community portrays themselves. Come to think of it, Bill, Tina got her store on the pretty right idea, all she needs to do is to fix that place up a little bit... =D

Also not seeing anything wrong here, but if you really want to get more exps... start introdeucing yourself to the local pacific divers. Eventually you'll know enough of them so that every dive you do in the future in that area will be with someone you know and trust.

I know of some shops that actually provider their renters/students with weight bags (the lil black bags) so it not only prevents people from mashing their gears with weights without telling them, it also makes it easier for them to transport. As for people with rollerbags like me, it's kinda...

It's actually kinda funny how the two people on the cover of da dvd are both instructors not master divers... though really, what's the point of taking that extra effort in getting a master scuba diver cert anyway... It's just PADI trying to fill the world with c-cards again.

Currently in Taiwan right now... visiting... any1 has any suggestions on who to go to for guides (and a DIN converter)? I'm living in the Souther region right now. Thnx

I see the people here aren't all that crazy about conservations =)

But do we realli need repellents? I mean... whenever I go diving I look forward to see sharks, not avoid them. Besides, I don't think the sharks are all that interested in moving rubber figures with metal cylinders strapped to their backs and streams of bubbles coming out.

It never hurts to have more fish swimming around you the next dive. ;)

I can kinda guess what happened... and in my opinion buddies are important no matter how ****ing skilled and experienced you are.

Never dove a warm water dive my life.... and now hearing all these from you guys making me want to sell my car to pay for one of those trips... :11:

horrible? dive? those words don't go together my friend. ;)

Ah.............
