Just passed 100!

[nimblemind]

Wanting to introduce myself to get some posts to enable DMs to buy some camera gear! I started diving with my LDS in 2018 after an awesome Discover Scuba, great even though it was just in a pool! Got my girlfriend (now fiancee) into it the same way, and we've gone to Cozumel and Roatan already.

After my first trip in 2019, I immediately came back and got my own equipment, and thankfully, the shop owner put me right in a backplate and wing, which I now am very happy he did. I've done my training with PADI but not gonna lie, the GUE Fundamentals course is calling my name... I just have to learn how to swim better

Well done. I crossed 100 last year shortly after GUE Fundamentals. Highly recommend.

Congrats! I know GUE isn't for everyone- but I personally cannot highly recommend the GUE fundies course enough. If you truly care about improving and refining your abilities/techniques in the water (especially if you decide you want to take on tech in the future), the course will not disappoint.

Congrats on hitting 100 dives! The backplate and wing was a great call early on. GUE Fundamentals is an awesome course - challenging but totally worth it. Keep diving and enjoying those amazing Caribbean trips!

Thanks everyone! I just saw a Going! deal (previously scott's cheap flights) to Hawaii for September, so hopefully we'll see the manta rays at night soon! Have to get the fiancee aOW certified locally maybe this summer?
