For all of you people that were at sharks cove today that elected to call your dive due to the conditions, I applaud your decision, for those of you who elected to go out there anyway, I can only hope you made it back and can take something positive from the experience.

Lets look at it from a different perspective. As members of the dive community we all have a duty look after each other, there are many different ways we can do this but it has start somewhere. we can learn from this accident. ok so there was a language barrier, diving has a language all its...

small Chinese lady with more weight than a bcd can lift? really? the average lift on a small bcd is 24lbs of lift....care to guess how much lead she would have had to have on for that bcd to not surface? that would be more weight than she could put on to a belt and walk with it. she had been...

you are very right, and all of you who aided in the effort are to be commended on your actions. it is always a sad day when the community loses one of its own.....a diver. but think about it, if there was air in her bc at depth then she had achieved neutral buoyancy. getting to the surface...

it was indeed a good thing you did, and the dive community is a better place with you as a part of it. I do how ever have problems with your theory....30 to 40 ft of water, bcd inflated, something panic divers dont do, that to me is not a panic diver, that is I diver that is on the surface...

the moment my head is below the surface, I'm having a good time....if that's the type of diver you are, you will have a good time.

most of the people I know that use said filters do so to compensate for natural light. I personally do not use them as they tend to add unrealistic color....but thats just me.

I have seen their van at kewalo basin quite frequently, so I just assumed they had started diving out of kewalo's. I would hate to think they just up and left. you might want to contact PADI main office and see if there is any information they might have on them moving.

well that s the price you pay for diving for "free" you have a choice, pay for your fills and dives or....do what you got to do to stay wet.

You know, nothing is more irritating than the person who thinks they have a tip coming just because they did their job. There are many people who bust their butts all day long and never ever get a single tip. A tip is something extra, not owed, not expected. its a way a person says thank you...

one day many years from now when I am in my rocking chair I will give this thread some thought and it will all come to me..."it s a slam?" ....maybe not.

you know serval times I have come across this thread and was tempted to say something,first of all I can not believe this thread has endured 5 pages, wow are you kidding me? I just dont believe any of this story, if it had happen like that we would be seeing some names. I have no Idea what the...

what is this? some kind of game?I find this story to be just that, a story. Without validated facts this is nothing but a fairytale.

been thinking about doing sharks this week let me see whats up with my tanks.

Nice job seeking the name of that guy scotty. if you look really close you can see the rings tapper in at the belly, thus the saddle, and like they said, very rarely seen. awesome pic and what a wonderful sighting, I for one never knew they existed so thanks for the treat, and thanks for...

um...sorry to say, and I could be wrong but I dont think that is a magnificent snake eel. Its facial structure is different from that of the magnificent snake eels, those markings are not of the magnificent snake eels. This eels head is more like that of a zebra moray, I will go out on a limb...

I have been involved in several of these conversations and my personal opinion will not change on this subject, its kind of like a motorcycle helmet, 365 days a year you wear it, but feel like you did not need to because nothing happen, you just have to make up your own mind state law says use...

I just dont know about the whole story.

dont know anything about no 74f where we are diving it, that would be a blessing, its been a nippy 71-72 on oahu according to my three dive computers. wearing a 5,4,3, a lava core hooded vest and a 1mil rash guard.

I think there are some good points made here and some stuff said here that gives cause for concern. We always avail ourselves to the customer, but when it come to setting up their gear, I always let them take a crack at it first, mainly because it tells me a lot of what I need to know, but I...
