don't you need special training to use the bp/w setup?
nautilus or sworld or my home "school" are options... even the resort pero might be hassle free-er kasi if it's someone here...
thanks though =)

there is nothing tech about my gear. ever piece of gear i own is normal recreational stuff. i even consider my backplate recreational. the only thing that would be tech is the longhose.

rent at Divers Point. Wilson St., San Juan cor. P. Guevarra.
Portulano would be busy on the 24th, kaya baka maubusan ng size dun.

many people have diff interpretations. lets just say that once you go beyond the recreational limits of 130ft you are in the realm of the tech diver. also if you have overhead environments caves and wrecks you are in the realm of the tech diver. usually the tech diver will use twin tanks with tri mixes and deco/stage bottles. other than that the equipment is basically the same.
