As of this posting, I have 30 dives on my new LYNX. Have used locator, compass, Multi-diver air integration, and simple personal use. It is an incredible recreational computer. I wore my Oceanic OCS wristwatch style computer for every dive as well. All depths, temperatures, and logged dives...

I suppose a price drop is in order. $400. Or reasonable offer.

Splits are excellent for snorkeling at the surface. Splits will not work for a back-kick, are ineffective for micro adjustments and subtle directional kicks, and are barely marginal for frog kicks. They are effective for scissor kicks if you don't mind contsantly and spastically moving your...

Some are explicit directions, some are not. For argument's sake, we are talking about the confined water progression and the sequence of skills in modules 1-5 on our slates. I consider it a baseline because it lists what must be taught. Nowhere does it define "how" it should be taught. We've...

Just thought I'd add $.02 to the conversation. This does not need to be complicated. Minimum standards are a baseline, a foundation. There are no PADI requirements to conduct programs in vest style BCs or on knees. A creative instructor can single out the minimum required skills and make...

I currently own 4 drysuits, but have a "go to" suit 99% of the time. The choices of suits for my drysuit diving has come full circle. I started out many years ago in a Whites 6mm neoprene suit. For most dives, I would wear a t-shirt and shorts as my base (and only) layer. The thing was a...

It depends on a number of factors. If you are talking about insulation, it depends on the type of neoprene used. If it is an incompressible neoprene like Rubatex, it may never wear out or lose its insulating qualities. Other factors: Make and durability of the suit. Glued seams, blind...

I wear my OCS as a watch daily, and have well over 100 dives on it. No problems what so ever. It's very good looking yet tough and reliable.

My dive company and I have quite a few opportunities to try different gear with the variety of students who practice with us, and through relationships with manufacturers. I'm also a gear junkie. I have strong opinions on what I like and why I like it. Gear should be simple and functional...

I've been to both, and enjoy both for similar and different reasons. Curaçao is more interesting visually, culturally, and with the diversity of diving. Bonaire is set up for diving, offers more diving and easier access to dives. In my opinion, the reefs are healthier with more abundant life in...

I would never expect a tip for any class that I teach. The student has already paid the class fee for my expertise and service. If the student pulls money out, I usually tell them to save it for an equipment purchase or for their next dive trip. If a student/client pays for dinner, I'll...

Back to the original intent of this thread. Great reports! This is exactly the kind of dive trips that I like to put together. A cold water trip and a warm water trip. Very inspirational, and thanks for posting your reports!

$1100 and taking offers. This suit is in perfect condition, no leaks, cool colors.

I usually advocate learning and practicing a skill while neutrally buoyant. But since we want to stay on a level plane, it helps in this specific drill to use a level plane surface as a learning tool. Try lying face down on the floor of the pool. Keep your legs relaxed but straight behind you...
