Hey Swampers, I'm looking to get myself a dry suit and I wanted to first hear your opinions on shell verses crushed neoprene, brands, economy (I *am* a college student), etc. I'm intending on stopping by Scuba Toys or something to try a bunch on since I know comfort is probably the main...

Again, just sharing, this was a project for my Intro to Film class. This is the final, polished version, that is (in theory) to be screened at the Fort Worth Modern Museum of Art next week along with other student films. YouTube - Dive Around Texas 2010 Documentary Final Version

I may be able to go.

A project I did for my Intro to Film class that I thought I'd share here: YouTube - Dive Around Texas 2010 Documentary

I've been planning to go, but I may have a conflict at this point that will prevent me from attending.

I'm not sure what's going on just yet, but I'm considering it.

Take a giant stride to The Giant Stride?

I rent tanks on a regular basis and the O-rings are almost always bad (either that or I'm just unlucky). I almost make a habit of swapping out the O-rings just because I don't trust theirs or there is obvious wear (have had at least two blowouts, both above water). I usually have O-rings with...

I was just there on Friday cleaning Deep Hole and the Archaeology site. Finning is simply using your arm or fin (hence the name) to direct and clear off the dark particulate matter that collects on the top of the springs so they look pretty and are easy for kids and other tourists to see...

Is the clean up dive a regular event at PK?

I'm trying to get some people to sign up for a Friday evening charter with Lake Travis Scuba (I'd like to dive Friday evening off the boat if possible). If anyone is interested, then send an email off to Robert@laketravisscuba.com or fill out his reservation form if you haven't before so we can...

Was just wondering what the Swampers think about diving at Possum Kingdom and what places on the lake do you think are best to dive (in terms of visibility, interest, and treasure hunting) in the event I ever go there?

I dove today with wrightcrew and his son. Visibility was pretty good in most areas. That thermocline was pretty brutal though, almost an immediate drop to like 66 degrees in some spots. I doubt I'll be going out tomorrow, but thanks for the reponses.

Besides being restricted, it's friggin cold, heh, 68 degrees year round (felt even a little colder than that to me in the middle where the spring comes up when I was swimming there).

So far, it looks like the weather will hold up, so I was wondering if anyone would care to join me for a dive? I know it's not Lake Travis, but I haven't been there yet and it's the cheapest and closest option for us DFWers as far as I know and I'd just like to keep the gills wet. Athens...

Best way to find what you're looking for. (the URL apparently gets censored, but you get the idea -- uncensor it for some amusement) But here you go

*bump* I agree, for the best dives on Lake Travis (and perhaps in most of Texas), go with Robert.

Yeah, unless you're related to Jacques Cousteau, I'm not exactly sure how much Gulf diving you're going to get to do lately. In regards to your charter question, a good gauge as "average" is about $50 per dive. So if you go for a 2 dive charter, $100 would be about a median price. After...

I would like to be part of this. If anyone would like to let me know what exactly I need to do in order to join up as part of a team, then please do.

Euless or DFW area.
