Looking for a cave instructor

[duckster3d]

Reggie Ross top notch instructor. the hardest student to teach is another instructor, and he di a great job with me.

putting in a plug for michael o'leary - http://cavediving.org/

his style is almost fatherly. he's very honest, gives positive and negative feedback without being harsh, and is very very clear about what skills are being done at what points of the dive. i liked that, because my biggest fear was the 'sudden mask removal during air sharing while stuff is being stolen out of your pockets' stuff you hear about. maybe some of that comes later, since i only did through intro, though.

Up north here I was told Larry Green as well as Jim Wyatt are Da Man's. Can't wait til May for my first 2 classes. Very Excited !!!

Another vote for Johnny Richards. When he's not teaching, he's cave diving. Check out his site.

Johnny Richards, Mike O'Leary, and Jim Wyatt would all be excellent choices in my book.
