Hello from SoCal! Seeking Dive Buddies in the LA Area!

[diablox1]

Hi all! Newly licensed (open water) and very excited diver here. Just finished up my OW curriculum about 3 weeks ago. I plan on getting many more licenses, the first of which are Advanced OW & Dry Suit in August, and Night Diving and Rescue not long after that. So far I've dove at Anacapa and Redondo Beach. I'd love to get alot more shore diving experience, so if anyone ever needs a buddy or wouldn't mind a relatively new diver tagging along anywhere in Southern California, let me know!

A bit about me: I'm an engineer and I'm an outdoors guy who loves to stay active, love to snowboard, ski, surf, wrestle/box, run, I'm a licensed skydiver, I'm into videography/photography and I'd eventually like to practice that underwater as well. I'm originally from Sacramento and have lived in San Luis Obispo, San Francisco, Bakersfield, Salt Lake City, Long Beach among a few other smaller cities, and now back in the LA area (Santa Clarita). Another hobby of mine is autocross/tracking and working on cars.

Hope to meet many of you soon!

Welcome to scuba board. Drop down to the local forum for southern California to see what's going on.

Welcome, diablox1! You have become a diver in a fantastic place to do that . . . you've got some of the finest diving I've done anywhere, just off your local shores.

You might want to post something in the SoCal subforum, looking for buddies. A lot of people don't read the Intro & Greets forum very often. There are a LOT of active SoCal divers here on SB; I'm sure you can find someone who will help you get into the water!
