    Labor day diving in Monterey?

    I picked up the plastic one and have had no problems with stability with my doubles. FWIW, the weight rating on the plastic and aluminum legs are both the same.

    Anybody diving tomorrow (8/24)?

    I would, but I have to run my sister in law to the airport, then pick up my mother from the airport..... Hopefully you'll get some responses later once everyone is back in from diving.

    Monterey 7/28 - 7/29 Anyone Interested?

    Looks like Monday morning, at least early, might not be possible for me now. I have a walk in appointment I have to go to at around 8, and depending how soon I get seen will determine if I am able to dive or not. I do want to go though, so I might try to stir up a dive buddy for a little later...

    Dive Report 7/21, Pt. Lobos: Beto’s Reef I finally got a camera, so I can now make dive reports that might be worth reading. Ben B (Biznate) took the day off work, which meant I finally had a Monday dive buddy. Ben and I have dove together a couple times at Breakwater, but he had only...

    Dive suggestions for Monterey, CA area

    If you are going to be diving over multiple days, the breakwater is a good place to knowck out your first dive, just to get aquainted with Monterey diving (easy entry and easy navigation). Vis at the BW typically isn;t as good as other places though and it can be pretty crowded on weekends...

    It was good diving with you guys too. I thought for a bit that Ben was gonna take us on a sand tour....again :p. Anyway, sorry I wasn't able to stick around and chat, or do the second dive, but I had to rush off to work.

    Doubles and DIRF

    I think it depends on your situation and what you want to get out of the course. I'll tell you about my experience though, take it or leave it for what it is worth. I finished fundies yesterday, in a doubles set up. I too debated doing it in doubles or not. I had dove the singles system...

    Sanctuary vs. Cypress Sea

    That drysuit will come much quicker if you suck up the shore diving for a bit. At $80 a charter, you coudl have a used drysuit in decent condition pretty quickly.

    Possible Essentials class in March

    I would recommend that you try both out for a couple dives before making a decision if possible. I bought a new back inflate BC (Ranger LTD) before trying a bp/w, dove it 12 dives before I tried a bp/w set-up, bought a used bp/w and never looked back. The ranger wasn't a bad bc, but I could...
