    Just got two new certs!

    Thanks! I'm excited. It's been 13 years since I got my last certification (Padi Advanced Open Water).

    Just got two new certs!

    So I finished my NAUI Nitrox Diver and NAUI Rescue Diver card. The latter of which was pretty challenging. Woot! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    My daughter's first night dive

    I agree that it would have been ideal, but we got in late on our only night there and I kept her in constant contact with me. It was a relatively short dive considering we did a 5 minute safety stop. She got to see fish she hasn't been able to before and experience something a lot of divers...

    My daughter's first night dive

    Our first time to Lake Ten Killer and we got there later in the day so I figured I would take my daughter on her first night dive. It was short at only about 20 minutes with a 5 minute safety stop. We went down to 30 foot in the scuba park and got to see quite a few fish. She started getting...

    Any condition reports from CSSP this past weekend (9-7, 9-8)?

    Where do you all enter at Lake Murray? I went there once and was told murrietta point, but it was impossible to get in there. Is there a place you can enter without hiking down a rocky cliff?

    Anyone interested in a morning dive with Lake Travis Scuba Saturday 9/14/2013?

    How did this go? I haven't dove lake Travis yet and am curious how it is right now. It must be awfully low.

    'Super-cheap' dive qualification to only 3m/10ft

    This is a horrible idea IMO. The first atmosphere down is the most dangerous as it has the largest pressure change and due to the shallow depths you get a false sense of security. This has the potential of creating a lot of issues for new divers.

    Her First Dive Didn't Go so Well

    Outstanding, looks like a great time was had and she performed well.

    Pony bottle; replacement for, or in addition to octo?

    I keep my pony clipped to the front and moved my octo to it. That way if something happened, I could attach it to my daughter and she will be good to go.

    Her First Dive Didn't Go so Well

    The important thing is she is safe. Beyond that, it's all gravy. She got some very valuable lessons there that should serve her well in any future diving. While not the ideal outcome, definitely not a bad dive. I try to turn dives with my 11 yr old daughter into teachable moments as much as...

    Lost my new mask and didn't get to use it once

    I did have it on backwards so it wasn't showing distress at least.

    Lost my new mask and didn't get to use it once

    So I went to Lake Murray up in Oklahoma today for the first time. Took quite a while finding a spot I could park but I finally found a spot at the day fee use area and got in the water. I had my fins in my hand still and was working on my mask as it needed a little tightening, I guess it got a...

    Twin Lakes near Houston

    Is it? I haven't been yet, trying to find out if it's worth going on my way back up to Sanger tomorrow.

    Galveston Shore Dives

    I guess I will have to do this on the way back up.

    Galveston Shore Dives

    Unfortunately, that is not an option. We would spend all our time driving between where I would be diving and staying. Not much of a vacation IMO.

    Surely something somewhat decent exists that doesn't cost hundreds of dollars. I read something about st joes beach?
