The issue here is how to get all the gear the op wants to bring onto his flight without paying the excessive excess luggage fee. If the op already is an elite member or traveling in first/business class, there won't be an issue in the first place. That said, for F class Star Alliance allows...

Asian Diver, a dive maganzine published in Singapore used to have this "VIP club" programme, where they gave their subscribers a luggage tag earning extra 10kilos allowance with local airlines, for an annual membership fee. It's been some years since I terminated the subscription and dropping...

Take a DSD in a tropical destination with good shallow dive sites. Thats where my wife, who used to be the kind that won't go anywhere near a drop off when snorkelling, decided she needs to be certified.

Tokyo had some unexpected showers last night cloudy right now

Same here. :mooner:

Oh. I think I missed that part

Bandon has their own deco chamber too.

Only the guy diving in a BP/W with can light seems decent. (don't mean to bring up the BP/W vs poodle jacket thing)

I'm also 2&4.

Impressive! And from such close range :cool2:

Interesting post, though I'm not sure if this post should be specifically in the NorCal section ;) Reminded me of this post too. Kaza

I think this post should help. Kaza

Hi timegan, correct me if I'm wrong, but are you asking why the hose on the pee valve doesn't get replaced, like the connecting tube and drainage bag used by patients with bladder problems?

Hi fish10 Before getting into which dive ops to go with, I'd like to point out that with just about all of the resort islands, there will be only one resort/hotel on each island. That's because most "resort islands" are essentially large sandbanks covered in vegetation, and this restriction in...

JB has a point here. You don't want to waste your time training OW in the Maldives. You'll be grounded in class instead of enjoying the beach, doing skills in shallow sand bottomed lagoons instead of diving the reef. If you can manage, get OW cert before boarding your flight. On the other hand...

All the dive services I've dove with in the Maldives mandated you to carry a dive computer. You should be able to rent one, but if you are going to continue diving for the foreseeable future, I suggest getting one. Early July would be in the rainy season ( the locals have 27 seasons called...

SangP, give me a pat on the head ;) I remembered where I saw the pass-thru buckle. It's from Golem Gear, the buckle's right here, and here's the ready-made harness. I'm sort of wondering why I couldn't come up with the manufacturer straight away:dork: Kaza

You'll be trained as an adult, but since this course is supposedly your first time going deeper that the open water limit, your instructor may want to keep it shallower than 100ft, but this also may depend on how well you dive (or how the instructor sees you). At your age, you can take the...

Sang P, are you looking for something like the "Sidecar" or the "Polygon" on this page? As for quick release buckels, I have a remote memory of seeing a near-hog harness with a pass through buckle on the shoulder harness serving as QR. Sorry I can't come up with where and when I saw it. Kaza

And I forgot to mention the optical connection kit Kaza
