    ScubaBoard Invasion 2024 T-Shirt Design Voting

    I wish we knew what the background color would be on the shirt because how the design contrasts with it would probably determine how I vote.

    Apparently based on my targeted ads, I need to stop being a pig at the dinner table, get my fat butt in the gym and stop peeing my pants.

    I get the need for ads but they literally take up half my phone screen.

    Diving with a Bad Back

    A nearby pool let me use the diving pool between the little old lady water aerobics and kids free for all herding cats sessions. They required that I be rescue diver.

    Diving with a Bad Back

    For my last dive trip I couldn't twist in certain ways and I had to get the crew or a fellow diver to strap up my left fin lol. Everything else was okay. Felt pathetic but like you said, swallow your pride and ask for help. Maybe you can return the favor for someone else on another occasion.

    Diving with a Bad Back

    In the water back pain is lessened but it sucks gearing up and getting in and out of the water.

    Down one pant size so far. Haven't weighed in because I don't want to dwell on the scale. Just keeping track of how my clothes fit. I'll take it.

    Why do divers wear bathing suits under wetsuit?

    Also, my Speedo jammers go down to just above the knees. Makes sliding the wetsuit on and off around your junk a little easier.

    Why do divers wear bathing suits under wetsuit?

    So when you take off the wetsuit you aren't naked? I'm not coordinated enough to do the cool surfer under towel wetsuit dance.

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    So based on this logic, doing oxygen therapy for DCS on the boat is purely to displace new ongassed nitrogen vs any benefit of added oxygen in the body?

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    I don’t get this. It seems like the 5% is conditional on the normal air concentration. If the concentration is higher, why do we not absorb at least fractionally more? If we breathe the same volume and absorb LESS nitrogen because it’s at a lower concentration, why do we not absorb more oxygen...

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    Gas limited. Average dive time about the same.

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    I did a 2 week trip, similar diving, same number of dives per day, 1 week on air and 1 week on nitrox. I didn't feel any difference. But if given the option, I'll dive nitrox to lessen the nitrogen absorbed. That's as scientific as I get. I'll follow the more sophisticated discussion and...

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    We can improve our diving and take in less inert gas. My guess is probably breathing technique is the cause.

    Diving "Conservative" vs Nitrox

    I would rather dive the way I want and take in less inert gas than have to adjust my diving to feel better.
