Hey everyone my name is Michael, I just joined the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I am very new/green into diving, so much that I am still doing my home studying and will hopefully by able to schedule my classes next weekend to start my open water certification.

This seems to be a awesome hobby to be getting into and seems to be very equipment, experience, and knowledge driven as opposed to some hobbies that you can truly appreciate with minimal information,effort, etc. I think that aspect of things excites me and makes me eager to want to get involved because I know it's going to keep me challenged and the more I discover the more I will realize how much more there is that I had no idea about... That's the plan anyhow.

I have already realized why not many people participate in this sport besides the obvious fear or no desire. It seems to be a very expensive, I especially noticed this after buying myself some gear. Hopefully, with what I bought, I should be okay for a while. I know one day I will have to get a computer but I was really trying to save a few bucks, plus I really want to understand and grasp the charts before I get a computer, that way I will still have my knowledge and understanding of the charts and my analog gauges as a redundancy.

I look forward to learning a lot here, sharing my experiences, and absorbing information from those more versed and experienced.
