I did it

JamesK · Apr 10, 2002

Well, I did my Cave Intro certification this weekend. In the next couple of months, I will start my traingin for Apprentice. I can't wait. We did the training at Ginnie, and at Peacock. What beautiful cave systems those are. I can't wait to be able to venture further into them. Cave diving was why I started Scuba in the first place. Now I am finally reaching one of my goals!

Didn't you recently get certified?

JamesK · Apr 11, 2002

Thanks. Yeah, I did. I have been certified for a few months.

Who is your instructor and what agency (cave intro that is)?

JamesK · Apr 12, 2002

DivingGal, thanks. I am proud of myself. Hopefully by the end of this year I can get my apprentice card. I want to stay at the intro level and continue doing about 10 cave dives a month for the entire summer before proceding.

IquanaDon, My instructor was Mark Pergram. He is with NSS-CDS. Why do you ask?

most instructors won't take a cave student until they have logged at the minimum of 100 OW dives.

He and another instructor evaluated my skills before he agreed to it. He also spoke with several DM's and other cave divers that I know about me and got candid responses from them before agreeing to it.
