    First Underwater Camera, Site Recommendations?

    I got a brand new underwater camera, a lot better than the Go-Pro I usually use, for Christmas and I'm in love with the quality of the image, I even got a mount for it! I think the brand name for either the camera or the mount was Sea Dragon, but I'll need to check for sure cause the box, case...

    Dangerous Scuba Instructor

    Yikes, this guy doesn't sound legal if this story is true. Maybe he faked his PADI partnership or something like that? Cause the first thing that struck me was the diving alone thing. In every class and group dive I went on, we were always instructed never to dive alone, and last year a camp...

    Should I try a rebreather?

    Yeah, I get the whole differing opinions thing, and I'm taking all advice given greatfully, as well as yours! These people are usually much more experienced than me so I get the concern, since I'm still pretty young and inexperienced (I live in Richmond so we don't have a lot of spots to dive...

    Should I try a rebreather?

    That's a pretty good goal you set yourself, I hope to do the same so I'll be sure to look into it. Hopefully I can find a safety course near me to check out!

    Should I try a rebreather?

    Well I had no idea this thread would go in this direction whoops. I'm thankful for the help I got on the subject and I'll ask again when I apply for my advanced divers lisence, but wow this was a really mixed threat

    Should I try a rebreather?

    Yeah, I just wanted to see if I should try it to see if I would like it since one of the questions I got asked when registering was what type of rebreather I used, and sidenote I'm a she not a he ^-^

    The Closest Shark Encounter I've Had

    Oh yeah, I know, and I've been informed on how to handle them as well as passive and active interactions and what to do in those scenarios No one touched the sharks or anything, they got close to us on their own accord and showed no aggression ;3

    The Closest Shark Encounter I've Had

    I saw someone else post a story about a Great White Shark here, and thought I would go ahead and post one of my own about my encounter with sharks, aka, some of my absolute favorite ocean animals (besides Mantis Shrimp and anything bioluminesent) So this dive was directly after a pretty serious...

    Orca stealing a yacht

    This reminds me of this video I found of people calling the police on grey whales, except this time calling the police on this Orca would kinda make sense

    Thanks for the info, and as someone who reads Steven King books a long read isn't an issue for me

    Should I try a rebreather?

    I've seen rebreathers in my local dive shop, and was asked about them on the survey for this site, but I've never used one before, I mainly use the standard regulator system with a yoke valve. Would a rebreather make my dives last longer or could I go deeper? Would it be easier to use than a...

    Hello there

    I have been to Lake Phoenix before, and even met a guy in my dive group that was a Vietnam veteran that still went diving after the war. It's a pretty cool spot, and even has this weird thing happen sometimes where pockets of cold air are scattered around the lake and the temperature difference...

    Hello there

    I signed up with this group recently to try and get advice from the pros and more experienced divers out there, as well as pointers to better dive spots (there aren't many good ones near me). I seem to be on the younger side of the majority signed up here, but I hope that doesn't effect how...
