Dahab Technical Dive Sites

I'm not the one lifting all that siltI actually had to go thru it

Poor you

Yeah the Tiger House is another tech dive. Personally I don't like it so much but that's just a personal opinion. Actually some people love it, especially the single tank dive warriors

I don't think so. The names are of the people who discovered the system are written on the map. They are Russians. May be they were using Tom's facility for supplying gas, etc...

Yep,they're definetely a group of Russian divers that dive with Fantaseatec.I think it's the same group that did a 200+ dive in the Blue Hole a month ago.Sebastian Kister,despite the name is French and is one of Tom's instructors.I'm going to ask who actually discovered the thing

The last month's 200+ meters dive was done by one of them (Andrey) escorting a buddy. Tom's team was doing the safety. I believe it's a promotion dive before Moscow's dive show.

Yeah,I know.I actually don't think they ever do more than safety on those deep dives.
Didn't know there was a Moscow dive show...not that I want to attend
I always happen to bump into that Christov whenever I'm there.Maybe he lives there

Frequently works for them in serving the Russian market and promoting their services.

BTW, this dive (the 200+ meters one) was postponed for one complete year Ask them about its story when you come.

Sad news about the death of Swiss (?) or French world record attempter Brigitte Lenoir. Died on a dive to 200m. Problem with O2 supply on ascent at around 147metres, seizures, so I'm guessing toxicity. Body lost to the depths. R.I.P.
