    Curious: Are you LDS loyal? What do you use them for?

    Sounds like the shop you found is a keeper!! To answer your question: 1. No I am not loyal to one shop. All the shops in my area arrange dive trips so I go with whoever is offering whatever I am interested in 2. I buy all my gear of the interweb- divegearexpress.com (except little bits and bobs...

    Instructor Course ...

    Quote: Once I get back to the UK – it’s time to get ‘serious’ and I’m not sure when I’ll get the opportunity to take up to 6-8 weeks to do something like this. Sure that time involves the 40+ dives I need to do on the side but I don’t really want to pay the prices they charge in the UK to dive...

    Diving Accident, Self-Responsibility and Balance

    Her profile indicates 70 dives over the last five years, OW certified and rents most of her gear (apart from mask and split fins). Good chance this incident was a result of many contributing factors and perhaps key among them would be gear unfamiliarity and lack of recent diving experience and...

    The risk of a shark attack when diving inshore waters of Western Australia

    Here in Australia we don't even execute serial/mass murders. Why should we destroy sharks on the basis that they 'may' endanger human life. Foxfish, as you can see by the reaction and arguments to your posts, no-one seems to be agreeing or even sympathetic to your argument. It is completely...

    The risk of a shark attack when diving inshore waters of Western Australia

    The shark bit her legs, then she activated the device. It didn't come back so therefore the device works??? That is in no way evidence that the ss works. Only that the shark had its test bite and then left. Don't know how many shark attack stories you've read but every single shark attack...

    The risk of a shark attack when diving inshore waters of Western Australia

    Practical and effective? Are you serious? Killing sharks over a certain size and of certain species because they 'may' be a threat is absolutely ridiculous. Why not tag and release all the larger sharks and if another attack was to happen then they could identify the shark (gps tags) and then...
