    Hello from WA

    Have you ever been skiing? Do you have enough layers of clothes to stay warm while skiing? The ski slopes are around 30° also.

    Subsurface 5.0 has been released

    I do have the "data pack" for dive mate which I purchased to ensure that I have a backup of the data in case my phone broke and I can "restore" to my new phone. I was hoping that somebody here had already attempted a transfer of data and knew how much data was actually transferred or if certain...

    Musical instruments, who plays?

    Do we need to be able to play the instrument under water? Above water I play harmonica and air guitar.

    Nearly new 30-year-old tanks?

    I agree, Jamaican music sounds so much better on steel drums, not aluminium.

    Nearly new 30-year-old tanks?

    Maybe so, but only for 4 out of the 3 tanks. [If your confused, look at his signature]

    Hello from WA

    Most (not all, but most) dry suit divers in Puget Sound stay warm enough to make it enjoyable. However, there are a few that I have seen that use battery powered electric thermals for that little extra warmth. Might be worth doing some research.

    Things you've found under water

    A "Hammerhead" in Puget Sound Washington. My dive buddy and I can only guess that it once had a wooden handle and the only part of hammer that was left was the head.

    Good destinations for OW checkout dives for 15yo?

    Don't underestimate the kid. My 16 yr old daughter did her entire training and got certified in the cold and murky Puget Sound (Washington) waters with a wetsuit. One week later we we're diving in Australia and we had absolutely no problem with the dives. You can learn to dive anywhere.

    Woman dead - Duck Island, New Hampshire

    It is said that there is always two sides to the coin: [Heads] She was already certified, this was simply additional training. [Tails] This was during a class where the instructor should of had air. [Heads] People need to be responsible for their own actions. [Tails] If the weather was bad...

    How to find dive buddies

    I don't have a boat, but my daughter does. However, I think she would get mad if I took it out of the bathtub.

    Best way to approach being overweighted?

    Looking at your experience vs mine and I ask myself, do I want to argue this with you? HELL NO, I would lose. However, I do question it. I already know that aluminum tanks go from "negative buoyancy" to "positive buoyancy" as the tank become empty. I also know that steel tanks REMAIN...

    question on gear

    If you buy the gear and you fail hydro, you are out the cost of the gear AND the hydro. Can you offer to pay for the hydro first and then buy if they pass? This way you only risk the cost of the hydro (which you will be out that money anyways)

    Best Places in the World for Dive Master & Instructor Training?

    I'm just a simple OW diver with about 60 dives in the murky cold Puget Sound waters of Washington. Went on a club dive once and was buddied up with a guy that had his "instructor" certs. OMG, what a nightmare. The guy had never wore a drysuit before and had no idea how to use it. Our dive was to...

    Not a huge fan of my GoPro

    Ditto with the headstrap factor ... actually, my mask has a built-in feature to mount the housing. Might not be the best pictures but I can just enjoy the dive.
