What level of training do you have?

[builderbloke]

club diver with the saa (sub-aqua-association) or is this poll only for padi divers since the grades are padi grades?

Often? No, I have dived at Shark Junction several times. Now each time we're in Grand Bahama I dive there at least once, hoping to get a better pic!

I think I'd be pretty nervous around a bull or a great white too!

just a couple safety tips: get fairly good with your bouyancy before you dive with a camera. Also, when diving in conditions I hadn't dived in before, I left the camera behind until I was comfortable with the conditions

Good luck, have fun!!

OW, AOW, Rescue, Equipment Specialty, Wreck Specialty

I had just finished the divemaster training and assessment (except the practical industry component) when I broke my ankle (not dive related) and I haven't restarted the dm work yet.

I plan on doing my Deep specialty in the next few months, and will eventually get into nitrox.


My husband has done ... OW, AOW, Rescue, Equipment Specialty and is now a DM.


So do you think our LDS has made a fortune out of us?

I just got my NAUI advanced openwater last week while on vacation in the Florida Keys, and I also have nitrox certification all of this for non confined spaces.

Please don't ever think of them as tame!!!!!!

That's the truth. Couple of my friends got bit, one pretty bad while we were feeding
and filming. But that was before the chain mill suit times. Shark Junction went through several stages over the years before it was what it is today.
