    One computer shows safety stop, one doesn't. Why?

    I dive with two Suunto computers. I primarily use my D9, but I also have my Cobra 3 as a backup in case the Cobra fails. This past weekend I noticed while diving that my Cobra was showing my 3 minute safety stop countdown while my D9 was not. Why would that be? I am pretty sure I have both...

    I FINALLY feel like a real diver!

    I am so proud that today I completed my first dives where I was not diving with an instructor or under the watchful eye of an instructor. A group of us from my LDS were headed out to dive the LuLu in Gulf Shores and I was given an instabuddy who had fewer dives than me (I had 37, he had 12)...

    Ear Equalization Issues

    Hi y'all! I am hoping I can get some advice on what all I can do to lessen my ear issues while diving. A little history: I've never generally had a problem equalizing on my descents but I do tend to get reverse blocks easily. For that reason I try to make both my descents and ascents slow and...

    Nikon D7000 Accessory Recommendations
