Like to dive before work and to make that happen I need to find somewhere closer to honolulu so I don't hit the traffic (work in Ft. Shafter). Any decent shore dive...

    I'm in the market for drysuit boots and was hoping for some reviews. Ive narrowed my search down to 4 choices, but I'm open to other ideas. I wear a size 14 shoe, and my suit (when it gets delivered) will have neoprene socks. I'll obviously have socks on under that for warmth. I'm looking at...

    Question on.... pockets.

    I've tried to stay pretty true to the DIR philosophy of diving pretty much sense i got my OW card. I'm to the point now of needing room for more gear, particularly a notebook, smb, finger spool, and dive tables.
