    I have Asthma and I want to Scuba dive!

    As long as there are lawyers standing around waiting to sue when someone dies from a "scuba accident" that is really a health related accident that just happened to have occurred underwater (I foresee more heart attacks and out of shape/unhealthy accident related health incidents occurring as...

    Recommended hotel 1 night after Truth trip, Santa Barbara?

    Next time, check Carpinteria/Summerland. Everywhere in SB area is pricey but there is a Best Western that is nice in Carpinteria I haven't stayed so not sure but I'm sure it's less then $200. there's a Motel 6 and Sandyland Reef Inn also in Carpinteria...not great but budget friendly.

    Where to find horn sharks in Southern California?

    I see them regularly at Malibu Road. Not so much at Point Dume and occasionally at Leo Carrillo in the shallows ear surfers rock.

    Suggestions on San Diego diving

    you could always buy a hooded vest - that would make a two dive day comfortable enough. Priceline hotel.... Or look for a boat that offers sleeping onboard the night before like many of the boats in Ventura / Santa Barbara county offer. Not sure if there are any boats that do two day...

    Diver missing - Emerald Bay - Catalina Island

    It was Santa Cruz Island on the backside....three in a week in SoCal :( Refreshers, guided dives, qualified buddies - if you don't dive regularly consider one or all when you return to the water....and pay attention to your general health people, I wonder how many of these had nothing to do...

    Wetsuits and Women's sizing, where to start?

    I would try on the couple/handful of brands your local shop carries, depending on whether any of them are "close" to fitting properly would determine whether I would bother driving anywhere to search for an off the rack fit. I would definitely try Bodyglove, their fit seems to lend it self to...

    What gear to buy for a beginner

    Some gear obviously costs more than other gear so depending on how much you can afford, that might dictate what you buy. The regulator will be the most costly when you look at purchasing the octopus, pressure gauge,compass and/or computer at the same time. YOUR FIRST SET OF GEAR I bought a...

    Helping Wife Learn Scuba

    I prefer not to have a husband tag along, it allows the wife to relax and not worry about meeting any potential expectations you might have about her abilities, fears, etc. It is nice if you want to tag along on her final (dive #4) checkout dive so that if it's on a boat you both can do a dive...

    Diving and Exercise

    Sounds like enough time, you will most likely feel tired in the legs if you beach dive from the day before activities. Usually I would move my long runs to Saturday and then dive Sunday the cold water soak is always good on the muscles. :). good luck
