    Back Roll off a boat... Will I die?

    Thanks NetDoc. This is not my preference for these dives but is dictated by other needs. Thanks for boosting my confidence!

    Back Roll off a boat... Will I die?

    Hawkwood has the winning answer! Steve_C- I am getting dizzy just thinking too hard about how to rotate. Photo op requires a tip.

    Back Roll off a boat... Will I die?

    Anyone doing sidemount entries this way? I will have two aluminum 80s. Anything to watch for for? (I have this fear of ending up hanging by my hoses and being beaten in the face by the bottles while a squid pulls my mask off...):scared:

    Peeing in wetsuits

    I think otherwise. I have one dive buddy whose wet suit always smells like pee and I have been on dive boats where the whole stern starts to smell like pee. I think it is like smokers who do not notice the tobacco smell. ---------- Post added September 1st, 2014 at 12:23 AM ---------- I...

    Mermet Springs: looking for a Dive Buddy tomorrow, August 29th

    Glen will find one for you if you just show up. Alternatively if you have a solo or intro cave card you can keep going down to Penny Royal and dive there.

    no din in bonaire.......?

    Put your regs in your bag. Then put two pro valves with inserts and an Allen wrench on top. Change valves on rental tanks. Use inserts for fills. Everybody happy.

    Keys Drive and Dive thoughts?

    I'm just glad I didn't give up enjoying cookies in grade school. Of course they're trumped by H2O Below over in Pensacola. They cook hot dogs!

    Keys Drive and Dive thoughts?

    I liked Rainbow Reef. They have cookies. If I wanted I did my own thing. If I wanted I could follow one of their groups. Or both. I was happy to have their help getting my tanks on and off the boat. They would have helped with my other gear if I wanted. The surface intervals were shorter...

    Scalding hot tanks

    Vinegar is not am oxidizing biocide. Chlorine at tap water concentrations is probably effective for 15 minutes. Health Safety of employees is important. As far as temperatures. I doubt most people would comfortably handle a 120F tank. They might even describe it as "scalding"! This...

    Why do we worry about galvanic corrosion on stage bottle rigging but not on doubles ?

    Agree with protecting the paint and covering the screw to prevent slicing things. I think a covering prevents cutting the rope as well.
