What is the Wrinkles Dive?

This is a monthly gathering of all divers and non-divers in SoCal who can make it. It's a lot of fun involving diving, eating, socializing and sometimes even camping!

It all started when our SoCal member, Wrinkles, mentioned to a group that she dove with that it would be really fun to be able to get together at least once a month. Pasley, took off with the idea and announced the first "Wrinkles Dive". The rest is history!

It's open to everyone of all skill levels from "I'm not certified yet" to "Do we really have to dive the Andrea Doria again?"

We've found this to be a great way to meet our fellow divers locally and many new dive buddies have been found though these "dive soirees".

[Code Monkey]

Well, I've be there (just the 1 of me -- maybe I can talk my family into coming over to Gina's afterward)! Sign me up for, say, bananas.

Time to start diving, again, this season. WOOT!

 

[JMdiver]

Hi Christain,

I'll be there & I'll bring ketchup, mustard, pickles & tomatoes.

 

[Ted S]

Now that it's a 10 minute drive I guess I may as well show up.

 

[divekim]

Now that it's a 10 minute drive I guess I may as well show up.

But, will you be diving?

Kim

 

[Ted S]

But, will you be diving?

It's been known to happen once or twice, but I make no promises.

 

[drbill]

I'm going to try, I'm going to try, I'm going to try...

 

[bluesbro1982]

You can do it, Dr. Bill!

Christian, put me down for a big ol' bag of charcoal and lighter fluid.

I promise not to drain a full HP 100 in one dive this time... (note to self... breathing off the reg on the surface WELL outside the surf zone is a stupid friggin idea!)

 

[Rickster]

Teresa and I will be there! put us down for the water. This time I won't forget it. Thanks Ted for getting some(1 bottle ) I still owe you.
