I chuckled out loud when I read the part about "rigidity and lack of planning versatility" because it demonstrates that you are missing most of the point of the benefit of standardized gases and I am sure any of the students in the last class can elaborate so I won't. However, let me point...

Greetings, In reading the recent thread about the last GUE class that had a cast of thousands, I occurred to me that this might be the perfect place to ask for some help. About a month ago I took over the responsibility of Sales Director for Halcyon and one of the first things we needed was...

Lynne, Liz.........they both start with L's........and you are both about the same size so.....;-) ---------- Post added February 24th, 2015 at 09:09 AM ---------- Now that Lynne and Dale and Ryan have weighed in, I wanted to take a moment to comment myself. First, I see my name mentioned a...

Sure, email me. :-) gs@gue.com. G

Hi Peter, I too would like to know why you think it is silly. I do it regularly and have for several years and have had a lot of success with backkick, helicopter turn, frog kick and modified frog kick training. We do it in water you can stand up in and you can coach the student and offer...

With regard to zippers, I thought we were talking about the zipper on the top part of the flap on a Halcyon style pocket. Others above have pointed out the problem with zippers as the main closure feature. With regard to chest or hip clipping of the SPG.....Dale, sounds like an excellent topic...

Dale, I have a pretty much new TLS 350 that will probably fit also so you will have lots of plan b's. Same for the tanks, wings, etc. A dry suit pocket as an extraneous failure point....that's pretty funny. :-). I personally don't put much stock in hearsay three times removed and suggest you...

Greetings, I will only take three students at a time for a Fundamentals class but don't go away yet. I may have an idea.... Guy

All, I was contacted directly by a diver wishing to join our team and he also happens to be from Vancouver so the logistics will be relatively easy (sorry Charlie :-) I think he is new on SB and couldn't post in this forum yet but he is a 15 year military and 3 year law enforcement veteran...

Most Excellent! We have ourselves a horserace! :-) Now we need a third.....someone who will commit to sharing their experience with the rest of the gang reading this. AJ, I hear you could use some remedial work......;-)

Any time Brad. :-)

Hi Lynne, I am good with scheduling out a few months also. Tell Peter, that yes, I can actually even remove his PADI instructor status if he insists on doing fin pivots in class....:-) To all, I would like to make clear that this is not an attempt to "call anyone out". My offer is sincere and...

Greetings all, I have been reading this thread with some interest and up until now I have sat on the sidelines. It seems like the same points are raised, challenged and countered on a regular basis here on SB. I don't think this will ever stop but maybe we can do something interesting in this...

This housing is in excellent condition and comes with a hard Pelican Case that has been customized to also hold the Gates HD monitor. I will also sell the Fx-7 camera which is in like new condition and comes with multiple battery packs. I purchased this unit for some extended travel plans and...

Greetings, You would be best off to contact a GUE Instructor Trainer and they will explain the process and the the various options. There are a few of us in North America and you can find us all on the GUE website. Best, Guy Shockey GUE Instructor Trainer

Hi Lynne, Sorry I wasn't able to make it down last weekend but we have some more fun things planned soon! :-) Glad you had a lot of fun. I am consistently amazed at how many perceive us as "not having any fun" when we dive. I dive to have fun and certainly hope I can impart that in a class...

ha! You should have introduced yourself! I was diving with several people you would have enjoyed meeting from 4 different countries. :-) i visited with Dave and Kelly the night before. Awesome photos! Pg

This may be a really small world but are you by chance the diver I helped moved a set of doubles from your car onto one of the tank benches near the steps down into Ginnie last week? I saw Kelly and Dave during the week there but it would be very funny if this is you...:-) Guy

I think we can agree to respect each other without have to agree to each others opinions. I see some valid use on some occasions to using sidemount for caves, but as Fred wrote in his article, the large majority of caves may be safely dove using a backmount configuration with single isolation...

I don't disagree with much of what you say however I would point out that anyone has access to pretty much any GUE instructor via the internet and I always try to respond to anyone who contacts me. Why get the information second hand when you can go directly to the horses mouth? I have a ton of...
