$400 is about right for both Master diver and DM. I did both through my university and the master diver was part of an AAUS scientific diver course which was about $350 but also included nitrox cert. DM was $350 but again it was through school so I think it was a little bit less expensive than...

I've posted a few short comments about my situation with my weight harness but I felt I should start a new thread. Recently I've seen a few negative posts about DUI's poor customer service which I found quite surprising. Overall I found their customer service to be above average. So here’s my...

stab through, grab the blade and flip it over. Once upside down they usually calm down a little.

Just did a dive on my new classic weight and trim, and love it! One thing I forgot to mention is that there's a spelling error on the warning label, nothing major but could use correcting!!!

I don't have one of their drysuits but do have their weight and trims. I was very disappointed with the newer II model which fell apart of course after the 1 year warranty. I made a call and was told pretty much too bad. That pissed me off so I sent an email or two and DUI stood behind their...

Again like others said, mix and match but none of those prices seem unusually high. I have a Veo 100 and Aladin Prime, go with the veo because it's much easier to learn how to use it, it's one button instead of two which are actually four because on the prime each button has a left and a right...

I have everthing scubapro and love most of it. First got a classic bcd and eventually went to seaquest balance because I like the back inflate more. Also scubapro's computers aren't as user friendly as most so go with another brand. They do stand behind their product, or atleast when it's...

I just saw a seaquest air 2 product that had a quick release built into it which looks like it would be easier to disconnect than the lp hose but it's also just something else to break.

Never had a problem with 3 divers but have never made a reservation because I always dive on a week day. Also now that they jacked the prices up, I'll probably just go to Monastery or somewhere else in Carmel.

Nailed it, couldn't agree more! Especially about the whole college thing because I'm in that boat right now.

This might be especially true of tropical destinations where the diving is easier and divers are really pushed through but it depends on the individual. I realize that simply diving is training, and the best training around, but the need to go right into "advanced" or what not is really over...

a good twist of the tail while holding on to the carapace always works for me

I have the same or simular torch, concentrated beam which I liked a lot more than the wide angle and have never had any problems with it. I'd guess something with the magnetic switch is screwed up. Try returning it to the store or email Intova they got back to me quickly when I had a question...

I highly doubt all 4 dives were in one day, and even doing 2 dives a day when you are new is going to make you tired.

Love my DUI harness but wish I got the classic version not II. The front clip is junk and if too tight it likes to come undone. Also I added a chest strap because I didn't like how it was pulling my shoulders back. I have a buddy who sent his back because it fell apart and then send him a new...

I'm young and still get really tired after diving. It's 100% normal! I've realized that I'm normally more tired after deep and/or multiple dives. Nitrox sometimes helps but sometimes I don't notice a difference at all. One nice this is it extends my bottom time especially when I have to dive...

I almost bought the intova strobe because I love the dive light I have from them. But I was kind of wondering the exact same thing...does anyone have it and how's it work?

I don't have an air integrated computer but couldn't it have a beep or alarm feature that could be optionally turned on once you reach a certain tank pressure? Do these exist? Personally I feel proper air management is a key skill that should be mastered from the get go and it not necessary...

Glad to hear you got to go to Pt. Lobos too, much better then the breakwall where every one goes. Right now the kelp is actuall REALLY dense there and at many other sites around because there haven't been too many big storms. Next time you go out hit up Carmel on a weekday if possible. Better...
