Welcome! To the board, and this infectious hobby! :)

Welcome to ScubaBoard -- looking forward to hearing of your adventures!

Welcome to the board -- and many, many years of underwater exploration!

Welcome to Scubaboard -- hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

cool! Thanks!

My R190's honk like migrating geese too --never noticed if my MK10 honks, but it's developed an air leak which I suspect in an o-ring. Hope it's not all cut up inside like yours, Dr Bill!

Actually - you about nailed it down! But don't get everyone started on gear advice -- you'll be here past your course date reading all the replies! Do a lot of reading, ask questions - learn from where you take your course and your local dive shops - and then buy what you think is best! Some...

HI! Welcome to the board -- hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I'm just gonna say it -- I love my v-12 splits, especially with the spring heels on them! Easy on and off, and I never have any trouble keeping up, except with Randy from Emerald (how does a big man move SO fast???)! Say what you will, but I like em. I think that's the selling point. Try em...

Very nice -- now I want a camera like that! :)

Welcome to Scubaboard from Ontario!

Hey --- welcome! Hope you enjoy it here as much as I do!

I don't think there is any reason for a dive shop to question the medical form, unless they something visibly wrong that would give them cause. In Australia, I had to have a doctor sign off ANYWAY - testing my lungs, blood pressure, etc. and stating that I was fit to dive, in their medical...

You can go to PADI's website and use the contact information to have them deal with your card issue. If you have the PIC information from your course they can probably track it down for you and issue you your card. Good Luck!

I took my OW in Australia, after studying PADI E-learning in Canada. Not counting the time to do the course online (which was pretty much at your leisure) my course was two days. First day was knowledge review/testing to make sure you knew what you took online, then off to the pool for the...

Hold your head high - each diver is responsible for their own EVERYTHING! What would have happened if they'd been separated from you, or the "instructor" (who appears to have BOUGHT his ticket, and perhaps bought their c-cards)? These two obviously were not prepared to dive that day, or ANY...

oops.... that's gonna cost somebody!

Thanks for passing on your experience -- not something anyone would think about, for sure (unless they were EMT or DR). Good advice to check the pulse on an overly winded, seemingly overexerted diver, who didn't have much exertion. I'll log it in my book.
