have rolex submariner - nice watch, if it would keep time like a timex (barely ever wear it, was a gift and carries this image of a penis extension for older gentleman), a breitling avenger seawolf - beautiful but a real alternative to your weightbelt LOL. its supposed to be good to 10.000ft, i...

seems like nearly everybody on my site got a mail along the same lines. whats wrong with people? do they really think thats a "concept" that works in the long run, beside the fact it is basically identical with my old messageboard and shows in fact a bunch of the original posts from there...

but if money is no object, call me and i will create it for you including a massive platinum backplate and 10ct diamonds as reflectors ;)

100 ppl 101 different opinions LOL

seen to much money spend on a reg without common features! i knew there was a reason my sp regs are blowing bubbles. ok, just kiddin'!

i personally use apeks, poseidon and mares regs. they all served me well so far. there are many other good regs on the market without doubt. the idea should be, what are you comfy with, what do you actually need them to do and to a certain point (some ppl will cry out loud at this) what is in...

you have to be very specialized (and usually involved in the really risky stuff) to make a lot more than that. still a pretty good income compared to recreational diving instructors! wonder when they will finally get their act together and go on strike :)

speaking for myself, i dont "give away" courses. when i teach the courses are usually priced on the upper end of the locally going rate. now, i have a fulltime job and dont depend on the money. i dont barter or make deals. thats my price and its your choice to pay it or go to somebody cheaper. i...

well here in jamaica the going rate is between U$500 and 600 mostly plus materials and agency fees. sounds very high looking at some of the posts. must be the "tropical advantage plus" rate i guess. personally paid nothing - thx to family members (but worked twice as hard for it :).

one is made to believe so :), i guess at the time they still had staff in the shops that was bright enough to make the connection that a card without pic in combination with a pic id like drivers license works also ROFL.

good luck!!!! - thats a big and tricky job.

you trying to say i sunk my harley for nothing in my goldfishpond??? ok, serious :), padi wreck course with a good instructor is a nice intro to wreck diving. if there are no suitable wrecks in your area, forget it. if you have a serious interest in wreck diving, consider courses of tech...

well, beside the questionable "luxury" of a instructors income, every single one of my computers is older than 5 yrs at this point. i dont see anything wrong with it. as for any other piece of equipment - service and maintanance rules apply!!! that means basically, also your divecomputer may be...

a dive is a dive and just being in the water (or under) is great. some are better some are not so great - end of the day, every single one is better than a day in the office ;). so yes every single dive is a blast for me - even after all this years. there are no bad dives, just next dives that...

have to agree, start already before the dive with a couple attempts and once youre in the water start at the surface with a slight attempt. head back and sometimes shaking your head left to right helps, so does the yawning attempt (watch your mout / reg) and swallowing. while sudafed and friends...

will be happy to offer professional help. just take me along and i will reassure you that you made a good choice all the time by choosing gilboa :D

i often use a walkman on dives (usually solo), but i guess it wasnt me - classical music would have to come from somebody else.

using "of the rack" and custom suits for years, i cant really agree. yes the custom might fit better, especially if you are sized in a way thats usually kind of in between the usual sizing. by not overstretching material from start it keeps you warmer. beside that, sofar every suit was more or...

no probs here with it here. dive 5mm and it seems as warm as my old 5mm. beside the above mentioned compression / less insulation issue you have with nearly all suits it sounds like a bunch of bs to me. if you wanna get around / minimize compression look for a crushed neoprene suit. denser...

well, i live in jamaica, so it is not like i am going on a huge trip. just the other side of the island for the weekend. would love to switch and take the palm beach trip instead!!! diving used to be very nice diving around there, even if i heard it degraded a bit after last years hurricanes.
