Halfway there!

Hello, been lurking around the board for a few days, reading and learning lots. Decided it was time to make my presence known. My girlfriend and I are halfway through the OW certification. Open water checkout dives at the quarry this weekend! Can't wait. All that's left after that is pawning personal belongings for equipment $$$ hehe

Heya and welcome to the Board! This a great place to hang out during a SI. You’ll meet tons of new friends and dive buddies right here! This place has a wealth of knowledge to offer divers of any level.
Congrats on getting things started, keep us updated as you complete your OW cert. we always love to hear what new divers think the first time they blow bubbles.
Best wishes!
BTW, what's your gf's screen name so we can welcome her also?

Hello from Matt,

Welcome to ScubaBoard ! :1poke: I came here to look for help with my scuba diving dream and the response has been fantastic. So, I know you will enjoy being a member here.
There are a lot of nice and informative scuba divers. It's a good place to meet other divers and share experiences and dreams. Take care from Matt.

Shes not a member here (yet), more due to lack of available computer/internet connection than lack of interest. I'll be sure and let ya know if (when) she registers.

Oh, and "blowing bubbles" for the first time was awesome. Gotta love the feeling of thinking "Humans aren't really supposed to be able to do this, are they?"

Welcome to the board. Believe me, most of us are broke after the initial purchases. Guess my wife will just have to work harder

Welcome to ScubaBoard! :happywave

Glad you and your GF are joining the ranks of divers everywhere. Good luck with the class!

Maybe a few EBay auctions (like a garage or yard sale without the garage or yard) will get you the gear you want!

Dive safe!
