    Which Fins?

    I have to agree with Brian. I use a Strap Fin and most of my diving is in Warm Water. I use 3mil boot and can walk around in them before I put on my fin. Besides, if you do any cold water diving there in Michigan, you're going to want a boot and I'm pretty sure it'll be hard to fit a boot in a...

    Thinking to get BC or reg.....

    Calvin, I bought mu BCD first. Not because I was having problems with my bouyancy, but because I was able to afford the BCD I felt fit me and my diving style first. That also gave me time to save towards a reg. While I was saving towards a reg set, I decided which one I wanted and could...

    aow course

    sounds like you had a lot of fun. Yeah, the whole Dry Suit things kinda boggles me too. I'm with Andy, I like these warm waters here in GA. I'm thinking about getting a 7mil Farmer Jon when the watrer gets cool. That's still got to be cheaper than a Dry Suit.

    Scuba and Golf

    You ain't lying. I started rock climbing when I was in college in Arkansas. I had to stop when I moved to Georgia (no rocks). Sold my gear to help off set the cost of my scuba equipment. I must say that as much as I enjoyed climbing, I enjoy diving much, much , more! I've been told that...

    Wetsuite to tight?

    You stated there was no problem in the pool. Were you wearing the wet suit then? You also said you were doing the OW dives into cold water. I know every time I get into cold water, it takes my breath away initially. Sorta that shock to the system with that first plunge.

    NYPD Scuba searching for missing officer

    I remember this coming across the computer last week at work. It's so traggic. I know entirely too well what it's like to lose a fellow officer to suicide. I'll saya prayer too.

    Buddy Preferences

    I typically dive with one buddy or another. Two of my brothers went thru the class and a good friend of mine. I usually dive with my friend as we have similar diving styles.We try and stay close enough we know where each other are, but with enough distance we can check out what's going on around...

    Just started the OW course.

    That reminds me of an experience I had in a pool back in High School. I was at a public pool with a friend of mine. We were swimming in the deep end when the life guard made everyone get out of the pool. We were wondering why untill we saw what he was fishing out of the pool. Eveidently, someone...

    Taking AOW immediately after taking OW course?

    I say go for it!! I just got certified recently and have my AOW tentatively planned for the first weekend in August. I hoping to have a few dives in by then. Give time me to get comfortable with my gear and basic skills. If you're comfotable underwater, I say DO IT!

    Just started the OW course.

    Or Blame it on your buddy, "While sitting expertly bouyant on the bottom, my dive buddy moronically hit my inflate button and I shot to the surface of the pool." ;)

    Not exactly a rescue but sort of. Funny

    See, that's why every department needs a Canine Unit. :)
