    Old dog, new tricks. Fundies.

    I have decided to talk a little bit about Fundies. This past week I took GUE Fundamentals in High Springs. Before I get in to the class, let me give you a little background on myself. I have been cave diving since 2002. Most of my dives have been in caves. When I started diving I was mentored...

    A few photos from Peacock

    These were taken by my friend Jeff Rose at Wes Skiles Peacock Springs state Park. He does a lot of UW photography, but this was his first time in a cave doing it. I hope you enjoy them even 10% as much as I do. I plan on blowing up the originals to hang on my wall.

    Halcyon 55lb Explorer wing

    I have one Halcyon 55lb Explorer wing looking for a new home. I will not lie and say "this wing only used ten times" or anything like that. This wing has seen a lot of diving, but it was all fresh water and it was well taken care of. It has never leaked or had any issues at all. It has treated...

    Jug Hole

    Had a great dive there today. The flow is up and the water was nice and clear. Visibility is pretty much unlimited. It is such a beautiful and fun dive that I have been thinking about it for the past seven hours since I got out of the water. I did take about an hours worth of video that I will...

    Hydro SW FLorida (Naples Area)

    Hey, I have a few AL80's, AL40's and doubled up PST 104's that are a few years out of hydro. Deployments kept me from diving them. I need to get them hydroed, but want them done right. None of this steel tanks hardly ever pass hydro type places, and a place that I work directly with the person...

    Oh Happy Days! My newest SM Kit.

    I just got my newest kit delivered via UPS. I ordered the new Manta Industries SM harness and wing. It looks to be very well made. The one concern for me would be the plates. They are ABS or some sort of plastic. They still seem tough, and in all honesty, I am not very concerned because they...

    Our state is dying of the dehydration coach!

    Please everyone, watch this video below. As all of you are aware I am sure, our state is drying up. In the ten years I have been diving I have seen the springs wither. We can not allow this to happen anymore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzpIKtfJRiY&feature=relmfu

    Intova Sport Pro

    Well, my Intova came in today. I already have two GoPro's, but I wanted to try this out as an affordable option to hopefully recommend to my friends who don't want to put $400 in to a GoPro. Just playing with it a little bit, it seems nice. First impression is not to shabby. It seems to seal...

    iPad Dive Log Apps

    OK, I have searched, but my searching ability sucks. Plus, the threads were all older. So, those of you that use iPads to log dives, what app do you find to be the best? I have been using a Droid tablet, but just decided to buy and iPad instead. I have a PC, and not a Mac, but that could change...

    Beef and Macaroni night... PG-13 for gross humor

    Before you read this, I can not take credit for it. This was posted about 4 years ago on another message board by the person this suppsoedly happened to. I just thought it was very funny, so I kept it. Now, I know that there is a lot of embellishment that occurs on this group and I am...
