    An end to my diving career

    F**************************************************CK! Was so much damn fun with you Todd! Good times feeding that wolf eel at Browning... sh*tty. It's like having a friend die, but not be dead... feels crap. Might I suggest: Iron lungs? Still sitting here in shock...

    dive saturday anyone?

    Dear lord, yes I will. No drinking on Friday, so I'll be up early-ish. Ange may come too. My drysuit leaks...again... but not so bad I can't make a dive or two.

    Viking Bayonet Dry Gloves

    SiTech screw gloves with marigolds and not a single leak. Check that the o-ring isn't pinched (easy, just look at them before you dive). Use a single 'slide' of zipper wax on the inside of the cuff at the edge, which lasts about 4 dives and makes donning SUPER easy and doffing SUPER easy. The...

    I wanna go diving...

    Your BCD is really only to offset your weight to make you neutral, then it's lung power all the way. Dump a little as you go up and add a little as you go down, same with drysuit. But, yeah, practice is the way to go.

    I wanna go diving...

    Just remember that air wants to go to the highest place (where the least pressure is), so venting is just a matter of making your dump valve the highest place. Might have to "chicken wing" to get it out sometimes, but depends on your valve. I don't use my drysuit for buoyancy, just to keep out...

    Official Remembrance Day 2010 dive thread

    I pulled some strings and was able to move my apt/meeting to friday, so I can dive. But chatting with the missus about a site, we'd still like to do Keystone as we haven't been there for almost a year and the last time was not such a $h1t hot dive for her and she'd like to do it again, not to...

    Well, my missus hasn't chimed it, but I'm game. I prefer to car pool with someone, just let me know who. I'll be using my 72cf 32% until they are near empty and I can time out deco pretty well, so a few minutes won't kill me if I time it. I end up blowing gas just finding the damn walls when I...
