current

Hey guys, Looking at getting some new tec-style fins but getting a little lost in the millions of threads that exist (which inevitably contain one person saying "RK3 HD are too flexible they're ****" followed by someone else saying "RK3 HD are perfect"). Genuinely open to suggestions but my...

Anyone happen to know if the current is still really strong around Sand Dollar today? We were cleaning the coral gardens on Friday and there was a swift current going from North to South and we had to hang on to the platforms to keep from getting swept away Just want to know if it's worth...

Hi, I'm a writer and I'm writing a part of a story that involves being adrift in the ocean. They were survivors from a military ship sinking. I've written that the waters were cold, I'm thinking 40-55F. Somehow two of them manage to float on debris. Imagine it took months to do, but they...

I'm doing some long range planning and interested in Komodo. I've come across Current Junkies and really like the idea of their approach; small group and make the most of the current, rather than avoid it. The website suggests they do some training at the beginning of the trip, but all the...

I'm a very new diver - this incident occurred on dive 8 for me. We were diving the Clackamas river, a relatively small river just outside of Portland Oregon. The current is quite strong, but at Big Eddy there's a swirling current where the river hits a large rock that creates a pocket of...
