here's a better picture of the side view it's 2 horizontal straps and one vertical strap. I actually had a lot more extra room in this, but didn't want to push it on its first day in the field! ;)

So, the bag is held down by the 3 dive belts. I threaded the belts between the halcyon pocket/back pad and the plate, but not to the plate itself. I removed the wing and tank straps and placed them in the ikea bag. ;) The bag is awesome, waterproof, well stitched on handles, nigh...

So I was going to get a dive caddy prior to my upcoming trip, but the local dive shop sold out and i didn't have time to wait for one to be shipped, so I made my own! Best part? I used it as my dive bag on my trip. And yes, it fits well within the 22x14x9 airline carry on dimensions...

My wife and i will be going to hawaii for a conference located in honolulu. Neither of us have ever been to hawaii and would like to go diving there. We have dove in the caribbean and mexico primarily and australia and the philippines. Would certainly appreciate any suggestions. My wife...

I wear a size 10 wetsuit boots, brand "deep sea." would regular or XL work for me? L scubapro jetfins are too tight. thanks.

Unfortunately that won't be an option, we are several states north of texas, and current ambient temps here are in the 30's, let alone water temps. And my girlfriend is really small and thin, and hence gets cold quite easily. She needs a wetsuit for the indoor pool, let alone getting her...

Thanks for all the great suggestions! I looked through the websites of some of those dive ops and I was wondering how to do my girlfriend's referral dives and saw that the aldora group states that the referrals are small sessions before a regular reef dive, (i.e. it is rolled into a typical...

Hi everyone, I am making my first ever trip to Cozumel this december with my girlfriend who is just getting certified. I used to live in Puerto Rico and dove every weekend. I got decompression sickness about 3 years ago and haven't dove since. Naturally I am excited to get my feet wet...

I reccomend Diving Parguerra if you come to puerto Rico. I don't know if there are any dive ops located in vieques, but some ops from fajardo may take you there. Vieques is beautiful by the way. For Parguerra diving, i reccomend Angel at parguera divers (www.pargueradivers.com if i rememebr...

had a crappy weekend, so I thought I'd share. I've been somewhat stressed a bit at work, so I thought i would go diving on Saturday morning and give myself a mini-break/vacation and go diving in one of the more scenic area of Puerto Rico. So I leave early (around 5:00am) and truck down to the...

Mandy3206, Wanna go diving sometime? I'm always looking for a partner.

Less than 20"? That's what, less than 2'? sheesh. I knew vis was bad, I just didn't realize it was that bad. Oh well. I am interested in spearfishing and haven't done any bluewater because i've heard some bad stories. To attract fish, they chum up the water down here, and naturally, that...

Heh, that's pretty funny ;) Nope, not UNO. Nebraska Med center. Did my college in MN where it's colder. Brrrr. My college team was 2nd to last in football, so I probably can't relate to the football insanity that takes place in NE. We were just happy when our team got points on the board. ;)

Yikes. Fish attacks! and here I was worried about reef sharks! ;) I have never dove freshwater. I don't plan on diving when its cold, I'm kind of a pussy like that. How warm does the water get during the summertime?

I am moving because i am going to be going to school in Omaha. :) I found the laws on spearfishing in nebraska and it looks totally legit to me. here they are: http://legis.state.sd.us/rules/rules/4107.htm#41:07:06

Hi everyone. I currently live in Puerto Rico and am moving back to omaha Nebraska and was wondering what the diving was like. Does anyone do any underwater hunting? Spearfishing or anything else? (not sure what lives in the aters there or what the local laws are). Anyone do any...

Hi! I didn't realize there were so many other divers living in Puerto Rico! How often do you guys dive? My favorite op on the island is Angel down in parguera. I try to get down there about twice a month or so. Anyone interested in doing a Mona trip with me?

Who steals a christmas tree? Better yet, Who breaks into a church and steals a christmas tree? good grief. I mean seriously. Who would feel good about stealing a christmas tree to have christmas under? I fully understand that the chrstmas tree is not derived from the christian...

When I moved into this apartment, the previous resident left me 2 unopened bottles of rum! I guess it came in handy!

Well a night in some puerto rican rum did the trick! No more nasty chemical taste! Now I gotta go buy a bunch of zip ties to put em back in . . .
