    Nitrox Class - Puget Sound - to Benefit Kimber Fund!

    I'll pay for two Seattle type divers to take the Nitrox class, 100 bucks each for Kimber (she sounded great on the phone yesterday), plus books and cards, and stuff, if you know them (which was why I asked about your former studii), or if someone like Ron Sallee speaks up for them. Real...

    How's the sign-up going? Have you taught any OW classes up there yet?

    If by chance I'm in the area that weekend, I'll attend, but you might have to throw in dinner...

    The First 5 Feet

    Make sure you're getting all the air out of your BC. Most people don't. I suck mine tight with the LPI before every dive. Are you nice and steady on your safety stop?

    Out of Air at 84 ft

    ESA. Your buddy 30 feet away is 25 ft too far to reach, especially since he doesn't know you're OOA. I can swim over 150 underwater horizontaly with fins, and most could, with practice. Making it up 84 feet would be a snap. Staying next to your buddy is a snap, too... :crafty:

    Hungover Diver

    I'm hungover all the time when I dive on vacation. How hungover I am is something only I can decide. I'm probably a more capable diver when I'm hungover and sleepless than a lot of people are on their best game. Do you forbid people to dive when they're seasick, and may be in much...

    What depth is that rule good to, I wonder?

    Least I'm not cheap. That light gets a little brighter each time you chip in, eh? I always do.

    computers & tables: split from ow vs aow

    Bollox. You exceded NDL by four minutes, and didn't notice till you looked at your (beeping) computer. "We got four extra minutes runtime by not paying attention to my Sunnto." Without the computer to tell you, who knows how long you'd have blown it by? The computer saved...

    computers & tables: split from ow vs aow

    That's english for "blowing off deco". Either you needed the ten minutes or you didn't. Such a question had never entered my mind. You post your profiles adversarially, no one asked for them either time. You jump up on stage, you get to dance, pal.

    Philosophical question on tech diving.

    Tell your source of information to lay off the pipe. I'd say that the majority of my dives -are- at or above 90 ft, but this is mainly due to logistics, gas availability, willing charters, ect. But there's a whole lot more ocean under 90 ft than there is above it. Tech diving...

    Backplate/Wing, as opposed to a traditional BC.

    computers & tables: split from ow vs aow

    Not by much. It's just a gross overcomplication of a uniquely simple device. IIRC, designed in the late 1800s. Second only to the 1911A1 in simplicity, utility, and longevity. And it already shanked you once. Dive how you choose. If you change your mind, E-bay it...

    computers & tables: split from ow vs aow

    I think you had that answer when the thread began. I've seen two AI computers interfere with eachother, and a lot of batteries go dead, I just don't trust them. Above all else, a diver has to know how much gas he has left.
