Kevin even with your dry suit I seem to remember you dancing around my heater last year! I have to admit, I am not looking forward to breaking the heater out again. Kevin if we do another dive when it is sleeting like we did last year....I'm with Jonathan, I think Ed is going to sell another Black Ice Dry Suit!

Dude, that weather sucked. No matter what your in you will be cold then. Ben and I did a dive around that time when snow was on the ground at JB

Diving in conditions like that y'all should just move north

Noo!! I think it should never get below 60 degrees in Florida. Move North :mooner: what's wrong with you, you should know better. Do we need to talk to Rob

68 degree water is plenty cool enough for me! Air temp temp needs to be warmer then the water for me!

Congrats to both of you. It will only get better

And Walter got tangled in his own line and thought it was me trying to hog tie him. I love it when things happen on their own (it makes my job easier ), but why do I get all the blame!!!

I was doing my lost line drill at the time. Rob gave me a blacked-out mask to put on and then Rob drug me over to my start point. once I had tied off I took off to where I thought the gold line was. Unfortunately, I started turning to the right and ended up making a circle and my light got tangled. When I went to deal with that I noticed I was caught in the line in a couple places. I started cursing Rob through my reg because I was sure he grabbed some of my line and tangled me up with it. in the end I could only blame myself (damn). After dealing with getting untangled I lost the little bearing I thought I had and was pretty well screwed from that point on. lesson learned, loosing the line= suck.

Oh man lost line drills suck! My question is....did Rob wander off when you guys were in Twin? He has been known to do that.

68 degree water is very warm in the winter...at least getting into it. It's the getting out that sucks!

And what bearing was that...

....did Rob wander off when you guys were in Twin? He has been known to do that.

Actually, since I had a full class, I wasn't ever part of the team. But team members did wander off and get lost in JB a couple of times and Twin once. After the first time, they were much more attentive to each other!!!

He wasn't a part of our team but he did hide a few people. When my light died I had just run a line to retreive the "lost buddy". I thought Rob turned my light off but the battery died. It made the drill more interesting that's for sure!

 

[GLENFWB]

All I will say is you guys got off easy! When he was in our team, he wasn't just a lost buddy....he was a running away from us and going around in circles buddy! And that's all I am going to say about that!
