    Alternate Location IDC?

    Thanks for the response WheelsUSN, so it's safe to say that not many Alternate Location IDCs are actually approved?

    Alternate Location IDC?

    I've heard that a PADI Dive Center can host an IDC as an Alternate Location? Does anyone have any experience in setting one of these up? What's required? Thanks

    Upgrading PADI Junior Certification Cards

    I agree, stick with the junior card. The PADI Regional Manager was out here earlier this month, that's one thing I asked him about what the $40 for an electronic copy of your card with their app. He said it's a new revenue stream. I asked him if they considered they might sell more if they...

    Our Bonaire Adventure

    I spent last week on Bonaire and we had a great night dive on the Hilma Hooker on wednesday. It was just the two of us, each with 10W HIDs and quickly had two large tarpons gobbling up any fish that got near what we focused on. They would swim along side us and then bolt from behind our...

    Yet another glowing report on Bonaire

    Saw this on Bonaire talk: That is what is called a wind reversal. The wind is from the west probably due to one of the hurricanes. When this happens the west side has surf, that is what caused the water on the beach and no visibility. This happened to us one time in October. The dive...

    Am I Just Crazy?

    Unless you're going through rocks in the warm water how else are you going to get immersed into an environment like the kelp, looking up and seeing the sunlight come through it's hard to beat. During a dive in Grand Cayman I was thinking, I miss the sea lions... this place would be so cool if...

    Scuba fatalities - Los Angeles County - 1994-2007

    Ken, What defines the LA Counties jurisdiction? What about casualties at outer islands or at the banks? Do they work with other Coroners for Regional Statistics? Thanks for your posts. They're very educational. Mark

    dive gear for kids?

    My son got certified when he was 10 and has been diving in a Back Plate/Wing since. Diving is already expensive and didn't want to be dropping a few hundred if not more every time he got a growth spurt. He's now 14 and still wears the same set up, I've just had to adjust it now and then. At...
