Hello from California!

[Coelacanth]

Hi all! I'm a new diver who hasn't had the funds to go diving since certification (which was back in August... *shame*) I got certified in Monterey Bay on day when visibility was about three feet tops and am excited to experience more diving and (hopefully) better conditions.

Welcome and be sure to check out the Wrinkles Dives in our SoCal forum. Lots of good folks doing shore dives!

Coelacanth,

Welcome! It's great to see another local on here.

Thanks! I joined the forum with the hopes of finding other local divers, I have no diver buddies. None of my friends seem to realize the awesomeness of it all...

Coelancanth -- As a new diver, you're likely not outfitted with gear (yet). Keep an eye on CL, or place your own post for low-priced gear. Sometimes gear can be had for cheap or free! With time you'll piece together everything you need.

 

[Coelacanth]

Um, well, I hadn't considered other divers as 'gear' before...

But hopefully they will be free, its always a hassle to buy other people around Christmas
