I may sound like a hypocrite here but I've been on both sides of the "boat" if you will. As an instructor/dm in the Caribbean, I may have rushed divers on more than one occasion, but never to the point of bypassing safety checks. It was more for inconsiderate divers and those who didn't care...

I've used the twin jet max and currently have the slingshots. Nothing can touch the torque and propulsion of the slingshots. They are fantastic and comfortable. Yes, they are a little pricey, but so is scuba gear. The only thing I have found close it good old fashion rocket fins.

I'm 6'6" and 300lbs, with a size 13-14 foot The mask has to be a good fit. You can't go by a "brand" or a style. Try them all and purchase the one that fits your face the best, regardless of brand. For fins, there are many different styles out there. Much has to depend on your leg strength. I...

I remember the guy saying that cat weighed 1500#s. Could I have misunderstood? Possibly. At this point I don't care. It was a very large cat. I thought some of you fans-whose school mascot is a tiger-would like to see it. Apparently I was wrong. How's that for a better story?

No, that wasn't his permanent cage, it was a transitional cage. Thankfully. The pic doesn't do his size any justice. My hands, when I spread them across are 10" from pinky to thumb. When I spread my hand across the top of his head there was still at least 2" past each digit just to the edge...

I would be MORE than happy to do a dive on the 13th. The Whiskey is right in my backyard.

#9 VT was so tough they dropped to #15 quicker than an LSU student drops advanced math. Oh and LSU has the tough opponents like Tulane and Middle Tennessee and Louisiana Tech, and two of those games at home. And you beat the #12 team EASILY. I don't call a 8 point victory an "easy" victory. Give...

What a joke. Maybe USC should play a Conference USA team to keep their standings. I'm willing to bet the rankings will be back to normal after next weekend. This is just another example of the blatant SEC bias.

Small chance I might be able to commit after Wednesday evening. I'll be able to tell then.

"...And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

It's amazing how any Florida fan can feel confident about their record. I guess when you beat up Troy and W. Kentucky, you've got a lot to brag about. I'm sure LSU, or any other SEC team, is shaking in their boots.

I'm just not real thrilled about driving all the way to Pensacola when Gary's is right down the street from me.

You're going to find that almost everything is homes or rooms for rent. I can't recall too many apartments. On St. Thomas, they're is a lot of government housing (don't live there). A room to rent or sharing a house is probably going to be your best bet.

OK, who do I need to contact to get in on this dive? I'm pretty sure I can make it. Gary, I'll dive as crew if you need an extra pair of eyes :D

First, There's not much on St. John. Housing is limited and expensive. St. Thomas is much more populated. The first thing you need to go with is housing. Everything after that will fall into place. You will find a ride quickly, although you really wont need one. I lived on St. Thomas for a few...

You might want to point out that these temperatures are Celsius and not Fahrenheit.

Land is cheap in Missouri for a reason. You don't need the name of the guy, he knows an experienced diver when he sees and talks to one. There are other circumstances other than just "showing" a C card, for example being in a Navy uniform with one of these on the first time you walk into...

Shane, I commend you for posting here and allowing us to interact with you in this format. I am planning on diving Vortex here in October and will look forward to meeting you and your staff face to face.

Personally, I would do both. Especially if he can do both either consecutively or at the same time. BTW, the poodle shooter is the better choice. The MP5 is too limited.
