Hey, I'm an instructor in Pa and dive mostly off of Jersey. I will be vacationing up your way starting in Maine first week of august (near acadia for a week) then ducking inland to new hampshire for a few days then back to the mass and ri coasts. I will be bringing dive equipment to use when not...
KDA and Dudas Diving Duds is having a dive social that day, there should be plenty of people to hook up with there (i may be doing checkout dives until lunch, then I'll be avail).. we usually get a pretty good turnout of all levels of divers just looking to get wet..
East coast dive instructor here planning a cross-country trip with my non-diving (so far) wife next september. We plan to do alot of biking(pedaling) on the way out and I'll dive wherever I can. We plan to spend a week somewhere on the pacific coast, probably hitting it around oregon/washington...
I should have pointed out that before the instructors pulled him out the dutch springs boat had pulled him to shore with the help of the point lookout and a throw bag..looked impressive from my vantage point!!
He was asking what happened after being loaded into the ambulance, haven't heard what his condition was after transport. The hood/wetsuit being too tight was the best guess of the people on the scene,probably cut off his carotid artery and basically choked him out. I was watching through...
Had an interesting finding on a routine physical that just goes to show that nothing is a guarantee. At 44 years old and having been an instructor for 10 years my new doctor realized I had never had an EKG. When he saw the results he sent me straight to a cardiologist(offered to admit me if i...
I honestly havent read all 41 pages, skimmed through a bunch of them and see alot of questions/comments on penetration technique. I urge anyone interested in learning line techniques to take a cavern/intro cave course. I had been an instructor for six years before changing shops to one whose...
Ill be at beaver satying up by the dam from july 1st to the 7th. I would love to dive with someone who knows the lake. I will be bringing gear for any type of diving, let me know. (some deeper stuff would be great, but anything is ok).
dove there a few years ago, was worth doing once though i probably wouldnt do it again. (especially after taking my cave training!!!) Their divemasters really had no idea about cave safety and treated it more like an open water dive. I didn't like the fact that they didn't want us to carry back...
If you dont give up diving before the 4'th of july email me!!
I will be staying on beaver lake that weel and need someone to dive with, hopefully someone who knows the lake. Anyone who might be able to point me in the right direction please contact me. I am an instructor but enjoy all levels of...
This is why the shortest hose i dive with is 5'. I have seen resort divers (in jamaica) go through 100' long swim thru's with no idea of the danger. On that occasion the divemaster waited at the end while my buddy and I had to clear the tunnel, actually dragging divers by the tank valves to get...
Look for a shop to work in that has nice instructors (and they will probably pay less than 10 an hour). In our shop anyone working for the shop gets free classes from one of the instructors if they show potential. I know we are training our future competition, but none of us are making a living...
Uncle pug, maybe i didn't explain it right. I do have a buddy. It is the diver in the buddy team who is following me. I just take responsibility for communication with him. his main responsibility is to the other diver. Our lost buddy procedure is the same as if a pair had been split. Shallow...
On a recent recreational dive in florida my buddy and I were told by the operator to include a third diver in our group. The diver refused saying he had bad experiences as a triple. I explained that I was an instructor and that my method of diving triple was to have the two of them dive as a...
Welcome evan. I am an instructor who uses Dutch regularly. We usually camp fri and sat nights so have plenty of time when we are done with the students to do some fun dives. We also have an instructor who runs trips to jersey almost every weekend. He offers instruction and will take you on your...
