A little Video of Double domes and Roller Coaster.

One in four women have experienced sexual assault to some degree in their lives. This is not to suggest that every fourth woman that you meet has been violently raped at knifepoint - but, statistically, you probably do know someone who has. Just because someone hasn't had a knife to their...

Hello, i have been looking forward to start my experience with cave diving but i didn’t know where to start, either take intro to cave and then full cave or i can combine both or what to do exactly. Noting that i am in Egypt already so i will have to go abroad anyway and i am still lost for...

I hear a lot about divers needing to unlearn or be retaught how to do certain things when starting technical and/or cave training, often/especially very experienced divers. Having just finished AN/DP (with tech sidemount) a couple months ago, I only have limited experience with tech instruction...

Hello, I live in the Mayan Riviera, been diving for 25+ years and I've been doing the caverns that my PADI Rescue Diver certification allows me to with a friend who is a guide. I was thinking of getting deep into cave diving (no pun intended). I talked to an instructor and he suggested I...

Good evening everyone! I'm a cave diver and currently use 2 Gralmarine K2 lights as backup lights. They're fixed to my helmet and, while on land, get quite heavy on my head. That's why I'm looking for recommendations concerning new backup lights. I'd prefer one that's as light-weight as...

Greetings, all. Just sharing some info I find very cool. Cocom is the name of an ancient Mayan family and dynasty who ruled the Yucatan Peninsula before 1440 A.D. Today, one of the living members of the Cocom Family owns a property near Playa del Carmen, where there is a cenote with a...

Cert wise, I'm interested in sidemount (maybe british style?), overhead environment like wreck, mine and cave. And maybe some diving advanced tec "toys" like DPV or Rebreather. But it'll take me 5+ years to even touch those type of specialty diving. Still a long way to go for me to be a cave...

Hello all. I have not been diving since my drysuit / intro-to-cave class in August 2019. I got stressed and exhausted myself during this class. I decided I will just do a brain dump and explain my situation and ask for some advice. The first mistake I made was going into the class after...
