If you really want to dye the material, you need an acid dye. The actual color is a nylon overlayed on the neoprene. Neoprene itself is just black. You could try a silk dye with vinegar added and a thickening agent to allow it to stay where you apply it, but you'll have to set the dye. I...

I want a mask strap that doesn't get tangled in my hair at the hinges. Even with a neoprene cover, thais is the area that is never covered and the most likely to rip the hair out of my head when I take off my mask.

My shop is covering the insurance I think because divecons are extremely rare for them at the moment. Other than that and a one time discount of 25% on gear the only compensation we get is when we teach a scuba skills update or teach a class. And free fills, which save me a small fortune. I'm...

My scuba honey and I make our own lift bags. We bought canvas, I french roll seamed the thing into a bag shape, attached grommets at the opening and coated the inside with a light layer of liquid rubber. For a valve, honey glued in a round piece of rubber matting with a hole cut in the middle to...

not a jerk, lol. I was just putting out what ssi gave me in black and white, I did mention what they require for their master level too.

I was thinking of the mk17 with the g250. why is the mk25 your choice? And the octo has been driving me nuts. I had been looking at the scubapro r190 but it just didn't seem right. I have also been looking at the aqualung titan lx regulator. It seems that scubapro has the field on regulator though.

I have just started the dive-con program with my shop and now I have to get new gear. Mine is not their stocked brands, and since I am teaching their students, they want the students to see only their stuff on me. I'm grinning and bearing that part because it is so important to me to continue on...

I HAVE THE LOWDOWN STRAIGHT FROM SSI. tHEY HAVE A MASTERDIVER PROGRAM NOW, AND IS NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH DIVEMASTER CERTIFICATION WHICH THEY DON'T REALLY DO. MASTERDIVER REQUIRES OWD CERT, 50 DIVES, STRESS AND RESCUE TRAINING, FOUR EXTRA COURSES OF YOUR CHOICE AND CDPR FIRST AID TRAINING...

I can give facts and real specifics after Friday about the dive-con program with ssi. I'm attending a meeting specifically for that Friday evening.

oh, and the dive-cons can assist in underwater and owd teaching, just not to do the key training or testing of the students nor issue certifications for that matter. They have to be supervised by the instructors, but they act as the instructors right hand.

I'm working on divemaster with ssi right now. It is definitely different than divecon. Divemaster for ssi requires four specialty classes, 50 dives, cpr. and stress and rescue training plus certification dives for each of the separate courses. Dive-con is considered instructor in training, lasts...

I'm Kristy, my scuba honey and I are Ohio divers currently working on getting the final certification dives in for our master diver certification, blasted weather cut us short last season. Next up is dive-con and on to instructor. Motly quarry diving and lakes to date, but water is water and...
