Sent the $$ to MHK for the class have my forms ready to be signed. Got the workbook and the Fundamentals book which I'm reading.
Haven't gotten my long hose back but I expect to get it in time.
Got a good deal on a brand new BARE nexgen.
It has the soft boot, I'll borrow my son's wet...
It's been an uphill trip.
Now the 7" hose had a faulty connector on the secondary side.
But no sweat I called Mark @ 5th D and he shipped a replacement inmediately. Hope to get it on time.
It's beenr eally crazy @ work so I'll take care of the dry suit this weekend

And it's a go!
I spent over an hour on the pool, my feet never flared up. Felt great!
Will have a bit harder time being a newby at dry suits but I can manage.
Not sure if ill rent the suit or pursue other choices. But I'm in

I'm taking the SSI class and from what I was told when doing the suit fitting (pre class) BC for buoyancy @ all times
Dry suit inflation only for insulation and to unsqueeze your personals (ie.your private). HE HE!! Sorry, I could not pass that opportunity to make a fool of myself again...
Clarification on my last post
I've booked a pool session for Mon night to try on the dry suit
I really want to go to the class so short of harming myself I'm trying all I can
The others registered wait and do not give up just yet and anyone else who signs up will make the day.
I really...
But tried several options to get access to a dry suit and be ready for the class and no luck.
Bottom line I would not be up to par on a dry suit to be able to apreciate and concentrate the DIR-F class.
The only way I could get access to one that I could afford would've been to go to LP and...
Expected water temp @ DS that weekend is 50.
No way I can do it on a wet suit.
Mi friends at LDS won't rent me a dry suit without training. I could buy one @ LP, how the hell do I get a right fit from an off the shelf. BARE nex-gen M fits but the neck is way too small. and it'll set me back...
You are all very courteous, supportive and helpful. Couldnt ask for a better group of people to go diving with.
(Sorry for the dangling participle)
Since I have never used a dry suit, I'll try to get a couple of pool sessions next week on a dry suit, see how that goes and rent it for the...
With MHK being a very proficient and highly professional trainer I'm sure he's on top of it. The only reason I brought it up is I do not know if he has been to DS before.
In my case I'm new to this area and have only been to DS a couple of times and only this year. So I do not know how it works...
