    GRRRR... move right for sirens and lights!

    I did this a few days ago, I'll admit (not pulling all the way over for a police car coming towards me in the other lane with lights & sirens on), but I did pull over as far as I could before I ran off the road in order to figure out where it was coming from and what it was. Only after I stopped...

    Floating compressor-type setup?

    I didn't know until yesterday when I was looking at their site. Looks as if I'll be taking a trek to the doctor soon! ;)

    Vision correction

    That's what I did, I got a mask with my prescription bonded to the lens. I've got 425 over 20 in my left eye and 400 over 20 in my right eye, so I am definitely legally blind. Hope that'll work for your circumstances.

    Floating compressor-type setup?

    I'm not really sure WHY I couldn't get certified, the doctor never really answered me last time I asked him because I was 12 and he said "Let's wait a year or two and see first, okay?" Well, it's been 3 years since then. Time to try again, I guess.

    Frog Kick: The Cleaner Way To Get Ahead

    Normally if I'm swimming in shallow water I try not to use the flutter kick because I'm the kind of person that likes to dive down and find some shells or fish on the bottom, and just take a look around before coming up for more air. I've never used the frog kick, I'll have to try it this...

    Floating compressor-type setup?

    I don't think my asthma is cold-induced, I figured that when the term "cold" was used, it meant like "common cold sick" kind of cold. I love swimming in cooler waters because I get hot easily and it's just really comfortable after you get used to the temperature. I've been wondering about...

    Do you dive with or without your snorkel attached and why?

    Whenever I'm skin diving I normally don't take a snorkel with me, I leave mine in my gearbag at the campsite or on the beach with my stuff. If I'm just going to float around on the water and occasionally dive down to look at fish, sea grass, or the bottom of the body of water I'm in, then I'll...

    I think I've decided on the Mares belt with pouches, it seems to be what I need.

    what weight belt to get

    I've been wondering about a belt for my shallow freediving in springs & rivers, and every now and then in the sponge beds off Crystal River. Water temperature is 70-82 or so, and there is a local dive shop within 20 minutes of my house. Any suggestions?

    Floating compressor-type setup?

    That's what I was looking at, the Brownie's thing. Found it after you said the name, it sounded familiar. I also remember looking at the SNUBA setups, and it looks very interesting. I'll check them out. I have mild asthma, I might have one asthma attack every 2 1\2 years and normally that's...

    Floating compressor-type setup?

    I saw a couple using a device at the Rainbow River one time but I'm not sure of the company that makes it, what it's called, or the model name or anything, but I was hoping you could help me with it... It's an innertube, basically, that holds a small air compressor with hoses and regs attached...

    Asthma

    I've got exercise-induced asthma, but if I stay calm it's not a problem for me. My asthma has cleared up and is very mild; as long as I take my medicine I'm fine. Opinions?
