    have you lied...?

    I never had to, I'll usually last out and still have lots left, sometimes I am 20 minutes (late) or longer, so the guys I dive with know that I for some reason, just don't consume as much and I solo mostly, so never really comes up... altho it's fun to come out 20 mins later and have 1k :)

    Kid's diving dry...What do you think?

    I dont see why he can't dive dry, most 10 yr olds make adults look stupid when they play them on video games or such (multi task loading multiplied !!!)..... If the kid is smart, and listens to directions and respects that what he is doing is dangerous. I'll bet he'll pick it up pretty quick...

    To those considering an OW class...

    There is NO WAY a short class can teach a person SKILLS, it can let them know about things, but to learn a skill it takes experience. I'd rather see it done in a classroom for the basics that they are supposed to teach SKILLS and no pass you until you can master them. I started diving in...
