50-59, certified in 1995.

I started by just learning swimming back kick and then went to gear.

We love to stay at a small place with apartments called Diver’s Paradise/ the rooms have all been refurbished in the past 10 years or less and the owner (John) is great. It’s also inexpensive and you have a full kitchen. Just a thought.

Hi again. It’s been awhile since I posted. I haven’t dived since the pandemic started. I had a litter of Doberman puppies, retired from my job, have been busy showing dogs and for awhile o went back to school. We’ve been unable to go diving for about 2-3 years I guess. Still working out a way...

I was. I moved about 6 years ago. So much nicer here! She-p is complicaed compared to a condom cath. Trust me on that.

Check out “Amy’s Baking Company” in Phoenix for example of a company threatening guests who leave bad reviews. But honestly this guy sounded prettty impossible.

You guys are so lucky to have external urination anatomy.

I haven’t dived since 2019 but we are getting ready to start going to the quarry. Our main sticking point is that all of our tanks are out of hydro and we live a long way from someplace to get the hydro inspections done, plus no place to get air fills. But, it’s looking like it will be an...

Hello- I’m about 100 miles from Myrtle Beach. Would love to get together and go diving sometime!

I live in North Carolina. I second Moorehead City, it rivals or exceeds many of the trips I’ve taken to more exotic destinations. Also, is there a swimming pool nearby where you can practice? It sounds like you could just use some hours underwater practicing buoyancy,kicks and other skills. I...

I know this is a few months old but I’m hoping to take a cave class this winter or spring.. I’m probably about 2 hours to Lake Norman. Would love to meet up sometime.

I have the atomic aquatics frameless. I went through so many masks and couldn’t find anything that didn’t leak or fog badly. I hope they keep making these because they were a game changer for me. The lens is so clear too! Although I do need to get some bifocals soon so I guess I’ll be finding...

Superlyte- that seems overly generous,2 months to stronger than new. I was 4 months out,had a bad car accident and the C7 vertebra busted in about 9 pieces. It looked like the screws were not fully hardened into the bone at c-7 and the plate combined with those screws to make a lever...

I’ve been diving hundreds of times since mine,c5-7. I did wait a year or so but I also had a very bad fracture of C7 after my fusion which was my main slow down and I was also in residency starting summer of 2002. Just be very,very careful about what you lift and super cautious about nitrogen...

In cold areas you can often do our dry suit course in conjunction with the OW since you will be diving dry locally most times anyway. I dove wet for a year in Puuget Sound when I first started. Looking back,I would have found a way to afford a dry suit a course but I was an intern and money was...

I find a Lycra skin helps under a thicker wet suit better than all the other options,I’ve even taken mine to the store when I try suits on. I think yours sounds too tight. Muscular builds need to go up a size or two. Back zips are generally easier than front zips but you may need help if you...

Sounds like it could be a type of trench foot. Cold,wet conditions to the extremities. If that’s the case then I suspect that diving day will fix the problem by allowing you to layer and keep your core warmer,plus your feet would be dry. Would be curious to see if your hands are better when the...

Well,we are finally diving out of Myrtle Beach,just almost a year later. Going with Express Watersports to “Civil War Wreck”. What’s it like? Anybody else planning to go tomorrow? Btw, staying at Lakewood Campgrounds which is pretty nice. We wanted to stay down at the state park in Murrells...

Thanks everyone. I’ll give these a call.

we are planing a trip in two weeks. Will leave Laurinburg on Thursday August 2 and come home on the 5th. We are flexible as we are taking the camper and haven’t reserved a spot anywhere yet. Would like to try diving somewhere around Hatteras but open to anywhere between the Northern NC border...
