After a week, I just did make the flight. I would have enjoyed staying longer but my wallet kept telling me no. Overall, it was an excellent trip. Meet some great people while we were there and couldn't have asked for a better group of dive buddies than the ones we traveled with. Water temp was...

This question is mainly for the service techs and LDS people here. Before we start, I have been a Scuba Pro, AquaLung, Atomic and a couple other lines service tech for around 12 years now. I recently quit a LDS because I told the owner he was screwing his customers and I would not have my name...

I don't know if it is something that I did or if SB has just upgraded itself right off my screen. When I first get on the Forum page, it is literally 2 screens wide. The height and fonts and spacing etc are all normal. Once I leave the main Forum page and get into a thread or any different...

As many of you have read Amy passed away in a diving accident on Oct. 16th. She and her husband, John, ran Outer Banks Diving. She was a wonderful lady and was always a joy to see and talk to. A memorial college fund will be set up for their 2 children, Kailee and Johnnyboy. Information...

Finally a knock against Buddys' Dive Resort. It is their orientation class or lack thereof. They only have to conduct it occasionally but they will not do it on Saturday afternoons. It isn't a big deal for me since I have been through it (support it and will gladly add another tag to my...

We've recently gotten back on board with XS scuba and order a "few" tanks. One thing I was having trouble understanding and couldn't get a definitive answer from the sales department when we ordered. We paid extra for the 40% nitrox tanks, does that mean they are clean for partial pressure...

I was recently contacted by a local volunteer fire department dive team about dive tender training. He didn't have a much info about the course other than it was for non-divers having enough knowledge to assist dive teams. Does anyone know if one of the PSD agencies teaches a course similar to...

Has anyone ever run into a situation where an XS bc doesn't have enough lift to float a diver using and AL80 tank wearing a 3mm wetsuit and no weights? I haven't seen the actuality of it but hoping to this weekend.

I have a gentleman that is wanting to dive but has acid reflux, he feels it is job related. He is on the medication Protonix and is in fine shape otherwise. A search of DAN didn't give me any useful and definitive information. Is acid reflux and absolute contradiction to diving or should I...

Even though Isabel took a huge toll on Hatteras Village, John and Amy took a hit on their house, the dive shop and boat survived. The October trips to Wilmington are still a go. If you have any questions feel free to call them, just be patitent if they don't answer right away. Their phone...
