rhwestfall - thanks!

I took the Nitrox class through PADI in September of 2013 and we used the tables for everything. Now that I think of it, I used tables in my OW and AOW too...I never used a computer until I bought one. All of this training was in 2013.

I'm jealous right now. I stayed at Aquaventure too 4 different times last year. Got my OW, AOW, and Nitrox certs all through an instructor that uses that resort exclusively. All of the places we went to dive around the resort were legit. Now I'm diving quarries and thinking of switching to...

That's legit.

Hey Mike! What part of Indiana are you from? I'm in the Southwestern portion of the state.

+1 for Greenhills... I've stayed at Aquaventure in Anilao for 3 or 4 separate weekends last year. The food (buffet style) was always good if you're into Filipino food. They always had a fairly regular crowd on the weekends that were friendly. Diving was great. The nightlife outside of the...

On the 6th-8th dive of my life I was at a dive resort in the Philippines that I've never been to. My buddy was with me but he had about 40 dives under his belt already. The dive shop realized how inexperienced I was compared with the other divers on board and paired me up with a DM that looked...

Welcome! I've been to Boracay once but never got to dive there. Was too pre occupied with all of the other happenings :D

Welcome! I was lucky enough to get certified in the Philippines and dive in Anilao and Subic Bay. Wish I had more time there to explore all that country has to offer underwater!

My girlfriend hasn't even snorkeled before so what you have working is legit for me...God Bless

Trying to be. As a new diver I have taked what is given to me.

As a new diver, with right at 25 dives under my belt, I can tell you that I adhere to my buddies advice and instructions because they have more experience and skill than I do. The reactions of your buddy raises concerns to me because as a new diver I can't imagine ignoring you as a more seasoned...

I hope all of the unrest in Bangkok won't cause any interruption to your endeavors in the southern part of that beautiful country or hinder any buddies from flying in. Have fun! Wish I could join you.

I've dove in Anilao where the macro is amazing and the vis is generally great, and I've also dove in Subic bay for the wrecks but the vis was pretty bad. As far as Anilao we stayed with a dive resort called AquaVenture Reef Club and their weekend packages included lunch on both Sat and Sun as...

Correct me if I'm wrong since I'm pretty new but I didn't know people routinely dived on air...

Sea snakes and snakes in general get me every time. I first encountered them in the Philippines doing some snorkeling and I instantly left the water and wouldn't return. I went back to the Philippines and got some certs and encountered them under the water and they get me every time. Very...

+1 for 2 hour boat ride, 4-6 ft seas, and taking seasick meds. I went meg tooth diving off the coast of Wilmington last year and all of that applied. Depth was right at 100 ft and we all used nitrox. We just had the anchor line to guide us down to depth and back up to the boat. Great couple of...

Will do!! Thanks. Take care!

Thanks for the link. I've never been on the site. Yeah I read reviews of Pennyroyal before and will be planning a trip there this summer for sure!

Hey tsormdiver! Evansville isn't too far from me. A little over an hour. I've been looking at places to dive here in the Indiana/Kentucky/Illinois/Ohio area. Not many to choose from here in Indiana from what I've read online so far. My folks are a member of a boat club with a fairly large lake...
