My friend is trying to get scuba certified and she rented gear. We're in Southern California, so these are cold dives which require a full wetsuit. My question is related to the pool, but also related to her weighting in the ocean. All of the online calculators suggest around 9-10 lbs of weight...

I primarily teach Confined Water Sessions in Delhi, India where its nice and warm. Pools are closed over the winter, so no cold water diving issues here. Was looking at the MK11 + C370 Set, but suddenly came across a crazy offer for the MK19 + D420 set at virtually the same price. Both sets...

Any suggestions on the best option here or that I haven't thought of? For the case where you will just be a few feet under water 99% of the time and so a BCD would be massive overkill. All of these prices do not include the actual weights, which in my case must be coated or otherwise sealed...

Hello all. Complete newbie here. I'm doing my OW course and I like to know the reasons behind things. I wasn't able to get a definitive answer to the reason why I have to always keep bubbling out when I have my reg off-mouth. I understand I need to exhale if I'm ascending, but why bubble out if...

Certifications completed in a pool, Anyone? Buehler? [similar to the various threads out there asking for ‘roll calls’ of other holders of antique cert cards] In 1969 i was 16, and after using primitive SCUBA-ish gear for a 10 years prior, my Mom noticed that a local guy from Lake Forest...

Does anyone in the Ottawa area know of any clubs or stores that have regular pool time practices during the winter months?

I am now a certified PAID (er, PADI) OWD, but I live in the northern USA in the middle of nowhere in northwest Wisconsin near Eau Claire. It's damn cold for over 6 months of the year up here, so diving regularly is going to be a problem. Also apparently there are no dive clubs around here...

Me and my buddy got our OWD last year and did a skills update as well as a perfect buoyancy specialty a few weeks ago. Besides that wie did two dives in the carribean right after we got our OWD, so totaling 6 open water dives now. As we both however felt the need to practice the basic skills a...
