    DGX Custom 30# vs Hog 32# BPW?

    I'm a little late to the party, but I'd say go for the least expensive one.

    Why choosing an instructor sucks

    That kind of goes back to points 2 and 3. Everyone has their recommendations and now that I've spoken to a few instructors I've had good vibes from all of them despite several other people saying to both go to them and avoid them. Everyone sounds competent to someone who doesn't know any better.

    I'm in the process of choosing an instructor for cave diving, and in reference to anything that is trying to kill me I always seek out second opinions. Here are some of the many reasons this process sucks. 1. Factions. In my home state of MO there are multiple groups that cave dive and none of...

    COVID Air Travel Experiences?

    To answer more pointedly, no changes other than what fewer people brings along with it. If it weren't for covid these would have been the best flights ever.

    COVID Air Travel Experiences?

    I flew to Fort Lauderdale from Kansas City about 10 days ago on southwest. No middle seats were being sold and so few people had bought tickets that we were also seated about every other row. Everyone in the airport was pretty equally on edge so everyone was very cool with mask wearing and...

    Missouri/Arkansas get together?

    I might be going down to Beaver tomorrow, I'll take a pic of the map but even the current C&J map is outdated if I'm not mistaken.

    Arkansas, Missouri and oklahoma

    TD Scuba in Lees Summit, MO has private use of a quarry just outside of Sedalia, MO. Small area but the vis is 30+ on good days and they've put a bunch of swim through tubes and stuff in there.

    Hey guys, I'm Brian from KC. I'm absolutely down to go! I've been looking through the scuba park for the last couple weeks - could you guys describe how to get to the enchanted forest on the other side of the ramp? Also, I haven't got any time restrictions and am making weekly(ish) day-trips...

    Howdy from Kansas

    I don't actually say "Howdy". Whats going on everyone, I'm Brian from Kansas City. I got my OW cert at the Utila Dive Center just before the bay islands shut down for covid in March. I really messed up by pushing straight through OW, AOW and PADI Deep Spec in one go because now I've got the...
