Hi guys,
A new member here. I got certified in early nineties and was diving sporadically, 55 dives total. Did a lot of them in Caribbean, some in Costa Rica and Indonesia. Have AOP certification. I'm flying to Philippines this weekend for a two and a half week tour. Going to Tubbataha out of Puerto Princesa on a liveaboard for six days, where I am planning to get Nitrox certified and then got another ten days to kill which I still have to plan out and book. I posted a question in a separate thread for diving suggestions earlier, but still cannot see that post. For this trip, finally bought myself a Cressi Travel Light package and a whole bunch of other stuff including a SeaLife rig light for underwater camera. Wondering whether money saved on rentals will outweigh extra luggage fees.
But the main point of finally getting my own equipment was to make myself dive more often and not just when I go to tropics on vacation. Planning to give a poke to local lobsters coming summer. Glad to be here and looking forward to learning a lot more about diving.
