Hey Sideways, thanks for replying. I like to meet and encourage new divers, but I do have a few concerns about doing a dive with you on Sunday.You say that you are picking up your gear on Thursday,how familiar/comfortable do you think you'll be in new gear and your first beach dive? Are you comfortable diving to depths up to 90'? We sometimes go to these depths. If you want to pm me, I'd be willing to set up a dive with you on another day when there won't be so many other divers meeting up with me like there will be this Sunday.I hope I'm not coming across like a dick.
Thanks for the reply BL! I understand your reservations. As far as the depth, on my 5th and 6th dives, they were between 80-100' I was completely comfortable with that. As far as new gear?? Well..the stuff I did my cert dives in was "New" gear to me . As far as my first beach dive, I have to do my first beach entry at some point. I grew up surfing in Huntington, and have been in the water all my life. That being said....throwing on gear for entry I'm sure is deffinatly different.
All this being said, I absolutely understand and respect any reservation you have, and defer to your judgment

Greg & Jamie - I'm just a sideline observer, but may I recommend for Greg to wait until our Dive Picnic at Veterans Park on July 26th?
FYI Greg, I dive with Jamie quite a bit and I think he is an excelent buddy. Having said that, our picnic may still be a better time for you to start beach diving.

Miss diving with you guys by the way. Hope you have wonderful dives.
Thanks for the input Ren. Hopefully I'll make the picinic As far as my first beach dive, it's looking like it will be with guys from work on Monday or Tuesday morn
Cheers,
Greg
