    What's with sidemount?

    Disclaimer(I dive sidemount as a lifestyle, and never took a class). 1. Sidemount classes to me are like drysuit classes. If you need someone to teach you how to dive in that configuration/equipment you need to dive more at a basic OW level because you don't have the comfort in the water to...

    Feeler: 2 Worthington LP 85's trade for 95's/104's/108's

    As the title states I am considering trading my Worthington LP 85's(not doubled, I sidemount) with 200 BAR combo valves for something a little bigger(95/104/108).

    Giant Stride with a Goodman Handle?

    While remote, the possibility exists where if you are wearing the light head on your wrist and giant stride in the cord can get caught up on a piece of gear and not allow for full extension/use of your arm if needed. It happened to me once, so when going off a boat my lighthead is clipped to a...

    checking up on your buddy...

    While it may feel like paranoia to you is actually outstanding dive awareness skills being developed. However, it could be that particular buddy making you feel paranoid. In my opinion a bad buddy is worse than going solo. Hence the reason I got solo certified in case one of the few people on...

    Buy a Drysuit or Log more dives?

    Go with the drysuit, used ones in decent to good condition can be had for a very reasonable price. I purchased a Dive Rite 905 for a few hundred bucks last September, dove it all winter and replaced the zipper last month. I have a suit that will last me for years and I'm out well under 1000...

    Suggestions for finding the anchor line.

    Personally, if it's my first time on the wreck and I plan to go further from the anchor line than the viz(losing "line of sight") I run a line. If I know the wreck then....well I know how to get back to the anchor line.

    New diver- New gear

    Alot have already beaten me to the punch on great advice here. While I am a firm believer in supporting your LDS, that doesn't mean I will let them "beat me over the head" on price when purchasing equipment(esp. since my LDS owner is one of my best friends!). To that end, get certified and...

    Divemaster Gear Exchange

    I just completed this exercise yesterday and learned two important things: 1. The best laid plans can go to crap really quick. 2. A tank of air lasts a really loooooonnnnggg time at 10 feet.....you don't get a refund for the unused portion and this isn't a timed exercise, use as much as you...

    Lake Rawlings

    If you have the choice go dry. While most of the temp reports are accurate, there are still some spots in the lake that are downright balmy!
