    Hey, welcome to the board. You are from Buffalo, i went to school at RIT. Read as much as you can from SB before purchasing equiptment. You will learn a ton. Good luck with your class. I wish I dove Lake Ontario when I was up there.

    Good for you!

    Welcome; you've found a great place. I wish I'd found it sooner!

    Gerard's advice about checking here before getting equipment is excellent. I got lots and lots of help when I was gearing up, and ended up with what is perfect for me.

    All the best!

    Welcome to SB!! :happywave Put us in your favorites and check in often. This is a great place to learn, compare, argue

    Hope you get your whole body wet & wrinkled!

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<
    Now let's see more CO readings in your trip reports, ok...??
