AOW in my mind is merely OW v2. No better time to take it imo than directly after OW. It's basically 5 guided dives in 5 different diving scenarios. After 30 dives say, there's not much to get from AOW that wouldn't of been worthwhile in the beginning.

Without reading the 'other' 12 pages.... I've never agreed with the idea that divers should absolutely do training (new divers at least), in the most challenging environments because it prepares them for ANYTHING further down the road. In no other industry do people train in worst environments...

It looks like it's even free. https://nsscds.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blueprint-for-Survival.pdf

There must be a statute of limitations on posting old stories no?

Looking for a camera for my non diving, but snorkeling brother. Anyone?

Was he struggling for breaths in the water, or on the boat that brought him there I wonder?

Sounds like typical police work nowadays unless it's some high profile case....

My experiences have all been good with RR but haven't been there in a few years. Going back in June. The current is what the current is. Why were you on 120's? So long I didn't go through the whole thing.... Note: Unless things have changed, going with their guides is NOT mandatory. We...

Looking for possible mid term property rental between Quepos and Uvita.

$215. It includes all gear. I had not rented gear ever before, it sure was convenient, but man I wish I had had my own regs. lol

Update. Went with Costa Rica Dive and Surf in Uvita. Seemed like a really great run operation. Nice DM's, staff, location, etc. Good comprehensive briefings from top to bottom. Snacks, waters, lunch after tank 2. First dive cano island, front right side. Lots of morays, large stingrays...

You got me beat on that one...

....then, I ordered a drysuit. I think I just spent more than all my other gear combined. LOL!

Update?

This seemed the best place for this question. Although I'm not doing long tech dives, after 30 or 40 minutes, I find myself preoccupied with how dry my mouth is, and start having warm feelings about getting out of the water rather than enjoying the last 20-30 minutes of a dive. That being...

I won't be there until the 19th. I will look forward to a brief trip report? :)

Unfortunately I would agree with this, there last week.

My left ear will over a few days become what I call 'fatigued'. It becomes mildly sensitive to clearing, and then the bubbles from exhausting out of the left side of my reg will go past and bother it. I believe this has happened more than once. The trip I just got back from, a few people...

The bleaching looked this week like it's already recovering.
