    Question about backplate and wings

    The last I checked Sport Chalet didn't carry any bp/wing setups, but it might've changed or some stores might carry them and others don't. Even so, I imagine the ones they carry will be Apeks. The way I see it, a backplate assembly is a bit unnnecessary for newer divers, but if you know what...

    Grand Idea or Grand Delusion???????

    I have yet to meet a wealthy instructor who doesn't have a second job(including owning a boat/diveshop), but if that's what you want, then you should go for it. Life's about here and now.

    Pool Pervert!!!

    If I'm in a pool swimming and I happen to see a gorgeous girl swimming next to me, chances are, I'll be eyeing her more frequently than the surroundings. And it's quiet a fine line between checking girls out and being seen as suspicious. Of course, shadowing someone or sitting around the pool...

    Jessica Alba does deco diving??

    I remember reading somewhere that all the actors had stunt doubles while filming, which includes the harder freedivings and many of the scuba scene... so I doubt the actors are doing much hard works.

    wetsuit in Monterey, CA

    I remember meeting a guy from Michigan a few years back. He was diving a 14(you saw it right! 14 mil) mil wetsuit. How people get in and out of that, I may never know, how people can carr that around, I don't think I want to know. But, if you're interested, I'm sure it's not hard to find someone...

    Chinese Characters

    If you really want to tatoo Chinese characters I suggest just tatoo the first character of "diving", consider the second character only stands for "water".

    Early scuba gear

    Breathed the Mistra when ut was sent to the shop I'm at for testing. How can I put this... it's a little less than expectation, quite a little less. We all agreed that if all the regs in the world have exhalation like the Mistra, overexertion will be a much more important problem than buoyancy.

    Tank Position

    In order for students to learn how/where to position their tanks in respect to their bcs is, as people have mentioned, a process they need to learn through experience since everyone is different. However, here we teach students to keeps their tanks to a somewhat low height to avoid having their...

    divers and smoking

    I actually don't think you should go into indepth lecture to those smokers... it mind end up annoying them. Just express your opinion to them in an at least respectful if not nice manner.

    The way to find out how much water a dry suit can hold . . .

    I've been using the same DUI suit for 2 years, and the suit was already a year old when I first got it, and other than the regular rinsing after each dive and zip waxing, I've never had any work done on it. So just so you know not all dry suits leak.

    Instructors pay....

    What about instructor level? Certainly an open water instructor shouldn't be paid as much as a specialty insuctor or a course director?
