The large meg measured L4.5" R 4.75". Great find By Tyler.

Today's finds on Aristakat. Great day with everyone. Thanks Jamie.

Scooping on Venice beach is all but dead now. Over 200 scoops and not one single small part of a tooth since the beach refurb. Gonna take several storms and a lot of help from Mother Nature to fix that. There is a lot more beach tho :(((

There is a project in the works with over 130 hand signal. It should be ready for release soon. Stay tuned. Best, bob

Lynne, Thanks. I love that being associated with my students. Im super proud of them and their accomplishments. If others are doing that I'm even more excited. The wonderful thing about this sport is that there are so many differences of opinions. ;) we learn from everyone. Generally i...

Free fundamentals skills clinics in the month of May. The following dates I will be offering free fundamental skills clinics for between 1-3 people each day. I have a couple GUE instructor candidates that really need some people to work with in preparation for their IE. Please sign up with...

Oddly not. Swimming. Hit the manifold on stable object and must have hit it just right. Failure was not catastrophic, just a constant slow steady leak until empty.

Yes he hit something. It was pretty funny at the time. We were pretty shallow and he was in disbelief that it was really broken.

I actually had a student break a manifold underwater. They shut done the post, and it still was leaking and they isolated and it still was leaking. I told them it was broke and we ascended to surface non event. Then they wanted to go to shore and fix it. I told them, it's broken for real non...

There are several GUE groups in souther CA. I would go to the GUE instructor list and reach out to Steve Millington, Karim Humza, Marc Hall, Jo, those are the active peeps there. There is plenty of opportunity to jump in with a great group of people diving on a regular basis. If for some reason...

Give me a call I can hook you into the main vein of DIR in Philly. How's your polish? :))) best bob 6077653942

At 6'3 double 100's will not be a very friendly option. They will be very difficult to trim out. They are short and the weight will be high on you. If most of your diving is here on the river 80's or 130's are the choice. Personally I'm not a big fan of the 130's though I have four sets of them...

Of the above options the 80's sound like the best choice. Easy to balance and accessible all around the world and a large number of people are diving with them. Enjoy the class and if you need any help before during or after just reach out. I'm right across the river and we dive every weekend...

I would suggest starting with a TCD, trancs cranial doppler. Much less and even free in some places and non invasive. Since you are on the east coast, try looking up respect trial locations. They are using TCD screening for potential candidates to study. Best, bob 6077653942

I have one student who has the above dates off and would like to do fundamentals in San marcos Texas. I already have two prior classes booked and can not accomadate this student in those dates. i agreed to stay after if we could find a second student. I know this is short notice, but if...

The East coast of USA is a fairly well covered area for GUE. The Middle of the coast is a bit weak, but the North and South ends have several options. If you are close the the North/ South East getting into one should be as easy as making a call. As for why others dont offer this type of...

Ladies and Gentlemen, Having read this entire thread, my first thought was to just let everyone one sort it out, and avoid joining the fray. Several calls and messages have urged me to respond. Where to start..... I don't post here often. I don't type as well as I talk, and I have a strong...
