Hi guys I had recently posted a thread about putting a tec dive team together and let's say it wasent such a hit. Lol. And I don't blame anyone of feeling like I was trying to step on toes. Here's my new question. I was wondering if their were any guys in the area who have had recently earned their early tec certs. And if so maby we can meet up with each other. Maby hit a quarry together. Get to know each other and hopefully dive real wrecks together. I'm also open to diving with experienced tec divers and even rec divers about to get into the tec world. I'm taking "kwinters" advice on slowly meeting guys on dive boats and meeting tec guys at quarry's but I also would think it would be a good thing to grow with others with similar skill levels. And if any of you have dives coming up or are looking for guys to dive with I could probably join you. Some of the wrecks I dive are the stolt Degali off NJ, the Oregon off NJ, the San Diego. I would love to dive the u853 this summer off block island. A couple of others on my list would be the Texas towers, arundo, Coney Island, Tolten, and many more. As for me diving is in my blood. At least the ocean is. I've been on the water with my father since I was big enough to walk. This is my passion in life and there isn't a moment in the day I'm not thinking about it( new sites, old sites, gear configuration, etc) eventually I want to take this all the way but I want to build myself up to it the right way. Thanks guys. Hopefully some of you feel the same way.
