    Good preperations (marking entry/exit points, making sure gear is rigged while it's bright and not change any gear config that hasnt been dove with before the dive) and good navigational skills are recuired for a successful nightdive. Make sure you have a dive plan to follow and an emergency...

    Where did you dive today?

    Me and 10 other divers went north on the west coast to do some boat-diving. Me and my buddy did a dive in 'Ormestad' on the way up, sadly enough we took the 'wrong' course and didnt meet the wall until we reached 33 meters depth...And at that depth on air we didnt have that much bottomtime left...

    Buoyancy Control

    Unfortunately this whole bouyancy thingy varies from instructor to instructor ofcourse, some teaches it the way PADI wants it and some do the little extra if you know what I mean. Bouyancy is hard in the beginning, we've all been there done that and some even got the t-shirt. Practice...

    Home Waters – Not Diving Paradise, But Special.

    We have this small-boat harbour, called 'Grotviks Harbour', this is our home. The harbour lies in a small 'lagoon' that the long stone pier forms. There is one main route on this divesite and it's quite big so it swallows a whole bunch of divers. We go from our starting point witch is...

    Should I buy this? Need some advice...

    Go with a Zeagle Ranger instead, it's convertable to a clean bp/w setup if you would want that in the future, and it's capable of holding up double steel 18 liters just as it is when you buy it.

    Where did you dive today?

    Went to Grotviks Harbour today. Perfect conditions and on homeground what else could beat that? However the first dive was awesome, about 6-8 meters vis, and no current what so ever! First one lasted about 57 minutes. On the second dive (after the diveschool had been on their first) vis...

    Which reg?

    I'd go with the Titan LX, I dive the Titan LX Supreme and I'm really happy with it, I dive cold waters, It has never freeflowed once, not even today when I purged it from 240 bar down to 50 bar to unlead myself. So the Titan works really well even here in cold ass Sweden where the conditions...

    Well, it doesnt count as a dive since it was only 3 minutes long... But me and two other divers in our local club went out to grotvik and was going to marker the sand/stone edge on the reef so that those on the boat could drog an 100kg anchor down as a cesa-bouy anchor. But there was...
