Finished AOW today!!!

Nope, we played with a tennis racket tied to a ball. Never felt anything strange.

It took me a while to equalize and besides that my tank slipped free. I just held the tank and continued down and had someone help me put it back on.

Congrats completing further certification! Welcome to the wonderful world of AOW diving

Hopefully you have met a few other divers with whom you can now continue to dive and practice skills. Maybe that DMT is willing to buddy-up with you again in the future at local sites?

Yep. Anytime I want to blow some bubbles, he'll be happy to join in. It's handy that he has some tanks that he'll let me use as there is a close pond to play around with, all I have to do is pay for refills and find my own weights.

Though, I do need 34 lbs to sink using a 7 mm wetsuit which is more than a bit to be lugging up and down hill and dale to this particular pond.

Next up, Rescue Diver, and maybe even Nitrox--which includes a couple of dives.
