Hello from Lewisville TX

[Flotzilla]

Wanted to say hello and quick intro.

Relatively new to diving. Always had an interest and finally 'got off the couch' and did it. Looking to increase water time and learn from the more experienced.

Look forward to getting wet soon.

Hi Flotzilla,

All,

Thanks for the welcome.

Bryan,

I did my OWD and AOW through Scuba Frisco Sports mainly for their competitive pricing. I feel my instructor was very knowledgeable, experienced and skilled. I don't know if it's normal, but I get a strong 'what else can we sell you' feeling versus 'your are ready for this next step' from the management. For example, they are already talking to me about rescue diver certification. While I find it interesting, I think I need to gain a lot of experience first.

I did my enriched air through DiveMonster. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and they were great. I will definitely consider them for any additional training. They are much more convenient geographically than Scuba Frisco Sports.

Safe diving!

Hi Deepwater,

Just for the record, I did the mandatory Texas three step -

Austin - 98 - 01
Dallas - 01 - Present

Safe diving!
