Nevermind. While I have enjoyed this site for many years recent circumstances with a moderator on the board have made me decide that I cannot whole heartedly support the scubaboard any longer. While I may be a small fish among the many I feel the focus of the bb is not with its supporting...
Thats kind of how I am feeling now. I fell for advertising in that a micro will keeps it closer to your body and doesnt interfear. I was a newb.
I will pass on the micro and probably get an Oceanic octo regular size. Have to see what my local dive shop carries.
Hey guys I was wondering if it would be ok If on my Diveshow.com site instead of running my own forums if I put the tank up but had it come to your site instead.
Seems silly running a forum when your forum is so complete.
Thoughts? Approval?
looking for a good micro octopus. Mine doesnt seem to really pull air right in fact it requires a bit too much draw to get air. It works but it was also a little on the cheap side.
I didnt know it wasnt that good until during some checkout dives the instructor teaching the class went to...
That sounds reasonable to me. The reason I ask is I was on a dive where the divers couldnt surface something and upon boarding notified the captain that they tied their item to the anchor. The captain didnt mind this but I couldnt imagine other boats taking the same stance. This was a pretty...
Suppose I was on a dive and found something that I didnt think I could surface.

Depends current can get a little much in Jersey but dont get carried away I have dove many a time with Force Fins because it gives you a little easier walk on the boat deck. They just feel a little weird but you get used to them. When current seems a little much I throw on a pair of TUSA. No...
Does anyone else feel like the requirements to becoming a certified dive instructor are a bit low or can be achieved in too short a time?
I constantly read on how divers withing a few months even weeks after their first time diving go and become dive instructors where most of their dives are...
It amazes me divers find something like this where you can trace it back to the owner. You wish you could capture the expression on thier faces at the moment they hear you say that.
Thats good to hear when I was trained we had to do that but entanglement should be taught a little more since I believe it occurs more often it seems.
Too many times you hear the moment your dive buddy isnt looking is when someone gets tangled.
If I had to I would pull my pony bottle and...
My really nice scuba pro mask with purge. Popped right off during a boat entry. Guess I didnt hold it against my face good enough. Stupid Mistake I never repeated. Now I tuck under my hood. Coast of Jersey Shore might have been on the Stolt Dagli.
