The DIR club is a group of (mostly older) divers, all of whom have
Dived. In. Roatan.
A fairly exclusive group at first, they needed some way to set themselves apart as scuba became more popular.
So they made themselves unique.
Each member had a small rock tied with a special knot on their left hip. They each had a short stick hanging from their right shoulder strap. As the group grew, each new member could add something, but the rule is that all the members then had to dive the same way.
Now you'll see all sorts of buckles, and lights, and hoses. And every single diver looks exactly the same. Kinda cool, huh?
