Always have, and probably always will

I ALWAYS have a fold up with line cutter in my BC. As stated before, Cozumel doesn't allow knives, but I carried it anyway

I've snorkled naked, never diving, but my 100th will be naked in Jamaica, I guarantee that. ....and I'm surprised that PADI hasn't come up with a cert card, to sell us, for doing it!!!

I've just recently completed the Nitrox cert, and I've just poured over all 9 pages of this, and have 3 things to say to the OP. 1. If I ever sell Nitrox, you won't get any. 2. If I'm ever driving the boat, you won't get on with Nitrox tanks. 3. If I'm ever looking for an Insta-buddy, you...

Please don't do this while flying on a Private Jet (Those that know, will understand)

Since completing the requirements, I've done the Nitrox class, and also want to take my time with navigation. I had the chance to do it in jamaica, but decided that time would be better served doing it in low visibility New England. I thought about tech diving, and it truely does interest me...

I know all about PADI...blah blah blah...but I Just recieved the Master Scuba Diver Certificate and I'm going to take a day or so and be proud of it :D What's next? I always thought it would be Divemaster and it may be in my future only because DAN requires it to become an instructor, for them...

10/10 I think I just got lucky

Best I've done is 37 minutes at 44 deg.

My coldest was yesterday. 44 deg, wearing a 7mm and 7/3 hood/vest. I was toasty warm except for my hands. the 5mm gloves just didn't do it for me....

While I'm totally against paying for E-cards, I also don't see the point of scanning cards and putting the pics on your phone. PADI personal info is on one side of the cards, and the cert on the other, so there's no way to prove any of it's real.

and here's what I wrote back.... Dear Bob, I currently have 8 certifications. That means that , at bare minimum, it would cost me $296 just to have copies of my cards on my phone. How on earth can you not think that’s ridiculous??? While this, in no way, diminishes my joy of diving...

Got a reply from them...form letter. Dear Butch, I appreciate your taking the time to communicate with PADI Americas regarding the PADI eCard™. It is unfortunate that this new product did not meet your expectations. Please know that purchasing and using the PADI eCard is completely...

I haven't gotten a reply from them, yet.

Very Cool!

Congrats on the certification!!! I know PADI is money oriented, but that doesn't overshadow your accomplishment!!! So....what's next??????

I got a nice email saying that I could download the PADI program to my Iphone and get all of my certifications put in there so i didn't need to carry cards. Downloading the program was easy. Then I was made aware that you have to BUY the Ecards at a PADI dive center or online. I figured it...

Congrats!!! Were you nude????

I'm also using the Scubapro MK25 A700...awesome reg, if it's within your budget. Some prefer the s600 because it's lighter. OH! ..and Scubapro is the BEST because I use it :)

I'm not sure why you'd need a signature on data logs.....it's not like you can make them up. Plus the log is also storred in the computer (100 hours for my SOL). I can't imagine how you'd fake a dive into a dive computer, I'm sure it can be done, but I highly doubt it is.
