    Making the switch to a BP/W and thank you Tobin

    After much research and advice, and with plans to keep advancing with my diving (even at the ripe age of 56), today I ordered a full rig with SS back plate and 35lb wing from DSS. That in and of itself is unremarkable. But we live in an age when far too many businesses do not know the meaning of...

    Scubapro Jet Fins with SS spring straps

    This is what I get for buying size-sensitive items via mail order. I recently bought a pair of Jets and straps to use with my drysuit. I assumed size "large" would be just fine, not thinking about the size of the integrated boots on my suit. Long story short, they are too small and I've now...

My primary land camera is a D700. I'd...

    Ocotal trip report

    Just returned from a week at Ocotal. Can't say enough good things about it. Weather was perfect, and the people were absolutely awesome -- very attentive and gracious. The staff at the dive shop was great -- friendly and knowledgeable. Also not too restrictive -- very much let us do our own...

    Greetings from newer Chicago area diver

    Thought I'd finally pay attention to the message that pops up at the top of the screen every time I log into the Board, and post a first message. I got my open water C card through DJ's Scuba in Lyons, Illinois in the summer of 2009. Dan and Cindy Howard, the owners, are absolutely great, and...
