    How to handle sarcastic responses?

    It’s unfortunate when you ask a question and get a sarcasm response back from a SB member if you haven’t got anything positive to offer the individual why bother making a comment in the first place. My thoughts on sarcasm. We are here to learn from each other and share our knowledge and...

    Question AOW

    Thats fine thanks for your opinion I already own 2 of them so it’s not an issue and if I find a dive resort that won’t let me use one when I want to go diving in one there are many more shops that would also like my business. Not an issue

    Question AOW

    I appreciate your response to this question but you can only learn so much from a course book it’s the time in the water when your practicing these skills whether it’s in a 20 foot pool or at 40-60 feet in a lake it’s still time in the water doing it. The difference is in a Drysuit you have...

    Question AOW

    I’m spending minimum of 2 hours in a deep pool to get some experience using it and practicing the emergency procedures and buoyancy. If I’m able to book more pool time I definitely will before doing my AOW course in June. I’m not intending on jumping into the lake and expect to know how to use...

    Question AOW

    It’s about gaining knowledge and experience along the way and networking with others that can share their past experiences with new divers that’s how many learn. I will never be an expert but if I can gain the knowledge to be a safer diver that’s all I can ask for and will allow me to enjoying...

    Question AOW

    Thank you for your opinion If I should wear a Drysuit while doing a AOW course It’s a 2 day course with 5 dives involved so it’s not a big deal getting cold if wearing it may cause issues during the course. I will still be wearing my Drysuit after the course is over and will gain experience as...
