I wanted to share my experience with recovering underwater photos and videos from a corrupted SD card. My underwater camera flooded during my honeymoon, with nearly 700 photos thought to be lost. The computer said that the memory card was not able to be read. The contacts on the SD card had salt...

My husband and I are the proud owners of two Manta Green Force Flexi II / TriStar Plus LED lights :D. We can't wait to get them wet, but until then, we've posted some above-water pics and info here. We will update it with a full review once we get a chance to dive with them, hopefully this...

On July 15-17, my husband and I took the DIR-F course in Houston, TX. I am very ecstatic that we both passed the course on our first try! Admittedly, we still have a lot to work on ;) . For the full(er) report, visit here: http://www.chumclub.org/forums/showthread.php?t=475 We had a...

Hi everybody! David and I are hoping to go out to Twin Lakes on Monday, to get some diving in before our Cozumel trip in June and to test out some new computers. We have never been to TL before and was hoping to meet up with some people there who are regulars and know the layout, what to go...

Hi everyone! Just thought I'd give you all an update on our progress... David and I had our first class yesterday and it went well. It was a long day though! Our instructor was out of town, so we had a substitute on the first day. She was a great sub though, in fact, she is our downstairs...

David and I are looking into 7 day dive trips to somewhere like Roatan, Belize, or Cozumel. Most of the clubs in Houston seem to have similar trips planned for Sept., which is sooner than we can go. We would prefer to travel with a group if possible. Does anyone know of any clubs/shops with a 7...

Hi again! I'm shopping for wetsuits, and the one that I've found that fits best so far is actually an XCel 4/3 Infiniti. Is the 4mm on the trunk area going to be overkill for the Caribbean dives I plan on doing? I tend to get cold easily (at least out of the water that is), and I don't...
