    Looking for Basic Cave Buddies

    I just got my basic cave cert with Johnny Richards. I am looking for basic cave buddies or apprentice/full that would like to do some basic cave dives.

    I am currently practicing skills and techniques. I don't want to hurry through the dives and want the emphasis to be on practice.

    A bit about my background: I started diving two years ago, got OW and Nitrox at a college program at NC State. Then got NAUI Rescue and kept on diving almost every Sat. at a local Quarry practicing. I have been diving dry for 1 1/2 year. I have been diving doubles for 8 months. I have total 160 dives. I have been practicing in caverns for a year and have around 40 dives there.

    I have a trip set for the 4th of July at Millpond. Florida. We have booked the boat from 4-7th of July. PM me or let me know here if anyone is interested.

    Not a good weekend, for me, but if you need a buddy next time around in the panhandle, shoot me a message. I'm in the area 3 outa 4 weekends.
