I am parting ways with my Oceanic EOS regulator and 1st stage FDX-10 with octo it also has the VEO 3.0 computer, pressure gauge & compass attached as well. I've used it in both warm and cold water as well as pools. It has about 70 open water dives on it and has been serviced regularly. If your...
Sad news indeed. Have to agree with Nadwidny that speculation doesn't do anything but piss people off. If theres anything to learn from I'm sure it will be forthcoming when the investigation has been completed.
I went through the same experiance in Mexico last December, I also found it to be a bit strange seen as it was never discussed in the pre dive plan.:confused:
Can multiple dives at altitude in cold water be a reason for post dive headaches ? I only get headaches on cold water altitude dives. The headaches don't last very long and a Advil usually does the trick. I did have nasty nasal colds a few weeks before the dives.
They knew nothing of any codes to give out. I learned by diving on computer, was'nt hard at all. I'm going back to that dive shop soon as I plan to have computer moved from console to wrist. It would have been nice to use simulator as I'm currently in a Nitrox course as well.
I find that after doing courses when we are going up and down alot I tend to have headache after the day of diving, but it only lasts maybe a hour. When doing regular dives that don't alter depths up & down I don't feel any headaches. I do find to be a shallow breather at times so maybe its a...
I had just purchased the Black ice dry suit myself. Did drysuit certification coarse this past weekend in a local lake here in Alberta, and at 39F I was very comfy in it. A great suit that I hope serves me well for years to come. :)
Northwest scuba is great outfit, very good group of instructors and dive masters out of that shop. Did my AOW with them at the same lake & same spot were accident happened. From everything I've heard about accident it sounds like diver error. The lake is very cold below 40' and visibility can be...
The Zoop is my first dive computer and I must say very easy to use. I really like the large display as my eyes don't focus as well as they used to. Could not access the on-line training as the so called code I needed the dive shop knows nothing about. When contacting manufactures they were fast...
I just love these fins, very smooth kicks & super comfort. Paid $150 Canadian for them up north here, have seen them as high as $190. Well worth the cost I highly recommend them. ;)
Just got my first Dry suit myself to take dry suit course with. Looking forward to saying goodbye to cold wet suit dives. Anyone know if Helli Hanson one piece long underwear would work well with a pinnacle black ice dry suit ?
Dove this lake a few weeks after the accident there. Was with the same dive shop that was there when drowning happened. First let me say the dive shop runs very safe dives. The dive is a very cold one at 60' my computer had the temperature at 41F. Silty at bottom of lake but other wise very...
