Hello everyone!
I've been stalking ScubaBoards for a while and have finally decided to join up.
First off, I'm in Australia, but not from Australia. I'm living there semi permanently working in the outback with O&G.
Second off, despite my username: yes I am a grown man. Nothing makes me have a breakdown faster or have a bit of a tank banger tantrum than to see a juvenile sweetlips underwater. Fellow juvenile sweet lips enthusiasts please let me know, maybe we can start a sub-forum or something.
Third off, I've technically been diving for over 10 years (was certified when I was 13/14), but have gotten back into serious diving in the past two years or so. I'm now a DM and do the vast majority of my diving in Indonesia!
Here's a few things I like about Scuba Diving :
2. Interactions with the fish, whether big or small.
3. Hunting schooling trevally
4. Pinnacle / wall dives with current! Nothing feels better than watching fish swarm around you while you hang on for dear life feeling the tug on your mask and regs!
Things I hate :
Pleasure to meet you all hopefully we'll meet in the forum soon enough!

Here's a few things I like about Scuba Diving :
- JUVENILE SWEET LIPS AHHHHHHHHH
2. Interactions with the fish, whether big or small.
3. Hunting schooling trevally
4. Pinnacle / wall dives with current! Nothing feels better than watching fish swarm around you while you hang on for dear life feeling the tug on your mask and regs!
Things I hate :
- People who dive with GoPros and selfie sticks. Especially people trying to take a picture with a macro lens and a 4 ft selfie pole.
- The Moray Eel Tank Banger : The guy who bangs his tank whenever he sees any type of fish that's interesting to see once or twice, but just won't stop tank banging.
- Not diving or seeing juvenile sweetlips.
Pleasure to meet you all hopefully we'll meet in the forum soon enough!
