My hubby is going DIR. Willbe starting formal classes this month. He already has a new Halcyon BC and owns a Scubapro reg so he's good to go on that. Mask and fins all good.
I want to start thinking about his Christmas present now in case it's something that needs to be ordered. I'm fortunate, our LDS is Dive Alaska and they are a DIR place.
But what do I get him?
What sort of items would a new diver to DIR need?
Please suggest away...
"I will spare you a gushy description of the dive itself, except to say that when you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to the circus and staring at the outside of the tent. "

PS - lemme know if you wanna dive... I'm always in search of buddies and the weather still may cooperate for taking the Whaler out to Rez Bay (since the Tide Dancer is done for the season )

Hey...I know you :05: You're KK right?
Bill is trying to talk me into diving this weekend but I don't think I qualify as "experienced" when it comes to dry suit diving.
Those canister lights are attractive but expensive. Between training and next year's liveaboard I don't think a canister light that is over $500 is in the card's for the hubby.
You folks have some seriously expensive tastes!!!
