For me, it's a way to track anything interesting or problems I've encountered during the dive. It is also a tool to show new operators (perhaps abroad) about your skill levels and pinnacle dives.
That being said. I know many people that make up dives on their logs so they meet the requirements...
Hey guys,
I have 2 friends that are PADI DM certified going over to Australia for work holiday. Can anyone suggest a place where we can start to look for LDS needing helpers? Or do we just start knocking on doors in person :D
Thanks!
Ah~ I see! thanks you guys for the clarification
It's just I never had problems with weighting, I was about 6.6lb weight / 3mm wetsuit in salt water with AL80 when I did OW, and hasn't changed since.
However once I corrected my trim and propulsion my sac /rmv increased dramatically.
Though...
Please correct me if I'm wrong. But I don't think being correctly weighted was the major problem. Even if you over weight yourself, it just means you will need more air in your BC to compensate your buoyancy. If you had perfect propulsion technique and trim, judging by also the depth of only...
I might be missing the point. But I have put off taking AOW for some time because I believe skills like trim/propulsion/neutral buoyancy requires practice to perfect, not something that can be fixed in 1 session.
Am I missing anything by not taking the class? I mean like... what would be covered...
Check out the "close-out" sections in the online stores.
They usually have some great deals. Just make sure they have good reviews from past posts on SB as well.
I agree with Bob, maybe venture out of cressi products to other varieties.
Also, try to see if your LDS can match the price. It...
This is for my gear overhaul project. I have heard good things about the MK5 and want to start with it.
Also would be better if the HP/LP hose ports dimension are the newer standard sizings. I want to keep it simple for now.
Please be willing to ship to Asia. I will pay you either by paypal...
I am sorry if this was posted before, but I really couldn't find any info.
Say after 300 charges. SP1 battery dies or is left with minimum potential. Can you take it out and put in a new one?
Thanks
Hey all,
I'm looking for a small bladder for my sm harness.
My friend got one from korea that looks about 10-20lb lift bladder for ~100dollars, but he forgot where he got it from....!
Does anyone know of any korean brands that manufacture such a bladder? or anything that might fit the...
woops sorry! thanks for correction. I was trying to be conservative, most of my peers actually trade in their 10y.o. gears for new ones. Fail into the trap of marketing haha.
Considering if you place them next to the tank on backmount. If ever you want to ditch them, you can't reach it.
thoughts?
I mean this in a DIR sense. Should one use it? or just keep it on weight belt/quick release?
Personally I think BC/ Mask/ Goggles can be bought used.
A regulator can be bought used if
1. You can still find parts for it
2. You can find LDS that service sit
3. Most importantly, if you know how to check quality of used regulator on the spot. So you don't pay for a broken reg.
But I...
