    GF99 on Surface in Future Update

    Would it be possible in a future update to create a display option that shows the GF99 at the surface assuming an instantaneous ascent? Obviously, the minute the last deco stop clears, it is at whatever GF high is set to. But, for no-deco dives or if you want to dive using an aggressive GF but...

    Kona (Big Island) Dive Operators

    Can anyone recommend one of the better run dive operations for open water diving in Kona? The recommendations in the Hawaii forum are too generic to provide much guidance on the quality of the operators.

    DIR Forum

    As a follow up and broader response to stickies, does anyone want to bother to do anything with the main forum? The reason for leaving it around when this one was created was so that non-DIR diver's questions about DIR could be answered. Now, they are getting most of their advice from the...

    SMB - Lift Bag Choices

    There have been a million threads on this. Sorry for the repeat request. Time for a new "easy tropics dive" SMB. Criteria: 1) I prefer the opened bags that self seal, don't want to mess around with the inflator hose ones. But, lets get all of the recommendations out there. 2) I have...

    Liquid Blue Divers Review

    Avoid this dive operation like the plague. I have a more detailed review of recent diving with Living Underwater in Cozumel here: http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/cozumel/225395-living-underwater-review.html On one day I was scheduled with Liquid Blue Divers because there were not enough...

    Living Underwater Review

    We just spent the week diving with Living Underwater. I am posting a review since the glowing reports I read here didn’t exactly correspond to the reality. Personally, I would not dive with Jeremy’s operation again but there are some reasons for that and it may be the right dive...

    Two Recent Cave Dives

    Okay, since there was some push to show we do just do fun, dives, I figured I would post a short summary of two cave dives where discussing the logistics might be useful to some of you. Plus, it has been dead in ths forum. First Dive. I can't really give site names but I think this one was...

    Mexico Cave Diving Trip

    How much interest would there be in doing a week of cave diving in the Akumal area early next year? Say Feb or March. I don't want to overlap with the Cayman week because I would highly recommend doing that trip. Ocean Frontiers runs a fablous operation. I hate scheduling trips since it...

    Give Doc Intrepid Some Slack

    Since I have only actually started one or two threads in this forum, it pains me to add to the massive amount of useless "where should this forum go" threads. But, since they are propagating so quickly I suppose I should jump on the bandwagon. Give Doc I some time. He is genuinely working to...

    Oahu Diving - Question for Local Crowd

    I will be transiting through Oahu on November 3rd and was planning on staying a few days. My wife and usual open water teammate is preggers. So, this is mainly a land based trip but I am planning on getting in one day of diving sometime between the 4th - 6th. I would greatly appreciate...

    DIR in Oz

    Any chance anyone knows of a group of DIR divers in Cairns, Australia they could put me in touch with? I will be moving there in the next month or so and the current dive buddies aren't willing to commit to every weekend. ;)

    Using US DOT Tanks in Australia

    I posted this in the tanks forum to no avail. http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=108890 Does anyone know if US DOT tanks can be hydro tested and filled in Australia?

    Using US DOT Tanks in Australia

    Can anyone point me in the direction of any definitive regs that will help me determine if my tanks are going to be able to come with me for a potential move to Oz? PST & Faber steel tanks and Luxifer AL tanks all bearing DOT markings. I assume a new Australian hydro would be required, but...

    Improving Ascent/ Safety Stop Practices

    First a disclaimer: This is a general discussion. Most of the people I dive with feel that doing anything I say will get you bent and urge you not to actually try any of this at home. And, some ground rules. I want to try to keep this away from too technical of a discussion of slow...
