    Diver Control: Hand Swimming

    Mind you I do not use my hands for any of this. However who are you to say its right or wrong if nothing is being touched. Is the only way to mow your lawn the way you mow it. Maybe you should ask your neighbor.

    DUI TLS350 Drysuit!

    Looks like a nice suit! If you have it in about a month I might just take it off your hands.

    To log or not to log... pool dives (noob Q)

    I follow the 15, 15 rule. If its not 15 feet and 15 minutes I don't log it and I also don't count pool dives as dives. I do have a log book for all pool dives that include some kind of equiptment issues, but there again they are never counted as dives.

    Ice Diving in Iowa

    It is definitely fun. I wish it was a longer rope. And maybe something else but its a bit too dangerous to write here! It would also need extra equipment.

    Ice Diving in Iowa

    I didn't see any mention to the under water ice skating. Next time you got to try it. Here's what you do. When you are ready to end the dive, assend as far as you can from the hole, get inverted fill your bc, stand up (or stand down not sure what to call it) and give four tugs to the rope...

    Much Needed Scuba Inventions?

    Now that's funny. Ok back to the real topic. How about a hoseless reg so you dont get tied up in a knot using a long hose or choked to death taking of your equiptment with that necklace around your neck.

    Much Needed Scuba Inventions?

    Reef I guess it was my way of saying you put quite a bit of time into your reply. Knowing it is all in fun, I guess I could have conveyed that it was meant to be in fun from my end too. I didn't mean to cause any hard feelings.

    Much Needed Scuba Inventions?

    Yep Gary you have opened yourself up on this one. I'm just waiting to see where it goes. Plumb Oh by the way you do have an awful lot of knowledge about this. Anything you would like to share with us? Could you also point on the doll where the PADI instructor touched you. :-) All in fun

    How much that the LDS tells me can I believe?

    I looked at 1 1/2 pages and couldn't take it any more. The prices you have stated are WAY to much even for a LDS. I wouldn't care if the guy can dive to nine thousand feet on a half of tank of air, you NEED to find a new shop! They are not all bad. Christ you can drive to my LDS in Minnesota and...

    Trying to get certified

    I can't point you in a direction for someone to help, however I may have something to try. The next time you are at the pool, don your gear and get in the water. Tell the instructors you need a few minutes alone. Put the reg in your mouth and your mask on. Without going completely under water...

    What workbook?

    Yep, Warnberg is right if you want more time just schedule the class farther out. However if you buy one from a dive shop and go back later SOME shops will credit you back your money when you schedule you classes. I would get the coarse and schedule it out a ways if I thought I needed extra time.

    My first drysuit - question about weight

    My instructor wears a beanie that snaps under her chin. I'm not sure but I think is made of wet suit material. I do know it is made for diving, but not sure how it may work under a dry hood. You may be surprised 50 degrees isn't too bad.

    LDS imaginary gear pranks

    O2 cleaned snorkel 300bar I live in Minnesota, if I join the dive team can I have the air fill sent to me? Maybe thru diverite's new fill station. Does anyone know if thats available for mobile yet, it would be great to use while I'm at the lake. I would only have to take one tank!

    Oh don't worry about the AGE either because you scream like a little girl for the whole ride.

    My first drysuit - question about weight

    There has been some great info here. I think one thing has been missed, suit squeeze. If you get it in the wrong spot(ie the boys) you don't care if you come you right side up or upside down just as long as you go up. Because that little button will not put air in fast enough! As far as DCS...
