I am newly certified, and I live in southern California. My friend introduced me freediving a couple years back, and since than I have always wanted to get my c-card but never had the time. My buddy and I finally went through the PADI OW certification together and completed it, but unfortunately he has encountered a medical condition that may temporarily put him out of diving.I am bummed, I have just purchased all my main gear including computer and I am eager to start diving. I am concerned that because I am newly certified it will be hard to hook up with other divers around here because of my lack of experience and the extra responsibility of diving with me. I signed up and was accepted in the dive club, so I am sure I will meet somebody that will help me get my fix, but still I am worried that it may be a little slow going at first. My buddy will be back diving,it may just be a couple months. he has already purchased his gear as well and is probably more bummed than myself not being able to dive at all!
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
