Welcome from someone else who had to do a cold water cert. We had a nice fire on shore to warm up with between dives, hope you got the same.





Later, Hawk.

It sounds like you really enjoy that cold water.

Glad to have you here.

Welcome Iceberg - and all I can say is "brrrrrrr....." but then I am one of most vocal CADs!

I'm trying to complete my AOW (one dive to go) and then Rescue but in the warm waters of the Gulf of Thailand... Unfortunately over Christmas it was way too windy and (dare I say it?) cold! :scared:

You've definitely found the coolest place (pun intended) on the internet to spend your suface intervals and learn and share information from a bunch of likeminded dive loonies!

Cheers!

Welcome to the board! What was the surface temp. during your checkouts? The last winter checkouts I was divemaster for were so cold we had the students do the surface intervals in the water because the 37 degree (f) water was MUCH warmer than the 3 below zero (with the windchill factor) on the surface!

Enjoy your SI here, there's LOTS of good info to be had!

Congrats iceburg on all your certs, and for the simple reason your not afraid of cold water. I believe coldwater is good for you - makes you hearty and strong and causes things to shrivel up! A lot of us like the cold, and if you have any questions about it, this is the place to find answers. Cheers

I guess your name is taken based on the experience of your first dive.

Well, good luck and many warmer dives to come.
