I am going to get certified this August but would like to get some used PADI training manuals & DVD/CDs... whatever's available that isn't too old...on a tight budget. Have been snorkling and a few dives in Baja but would like formal training & certificate. Have all equipment. Live in San Diego. New to Forums. Don't blog. Thank you.

I'll spare you the summon on diving without being certified.

So that is why I want to get certified. I took class at WET 25 years ago but never finished. Is the DVD & electronic dive planner really needed. Seems costly. Thanks!
 
Howdy and Welcome to SB.com!

I don't know about the DVD and E-planner. I guess some use them, some don't. Ask on your local forum; you'll make new friends and someone might loan you theirs...

You will be happy to know that I just completed my certification last weekend with 4 open water walk-in dives from La Jolla Shores in San Diego, CA. I have my temporary card and expect my permanant one shortly. I'm leaving for the Sea of Cortez in 9 days and can't wait for warm water!! Still it was a fabulous experience... being TRAINED by a PRO! Now I want to join DAN.
 
Your Instructor took you to the sea without a DAN membership?

Good grief! It's free for students.

Well, now is a very good time to join. Do it online, print out temporary card: DAN Divers Alert Network I suggest the middle insurance plan if not the top plan. The bottom one is only $10/yr cheaper than the middle one but has shortcomings.

:medal: Congratulations on your C-Card and have a great trip - just don't go without DAN. Time to start posting in New Divers forum.
 
welcome aboard
