No Jendra. I don't think we've met. I am a new diver out of the Diving Den. My name is Cassie. You may see me at a meeting sometime though!

Will definitely be penciling that one into my schedule. Thanks for the tip!:coffee:

I am 5'3", 130lbs, medium bust. I have tried and tried to order dive apparel online (wetsuits, etc). My problem is that I am slightly long in the torso for my height, but fairly built in the legs and butt due to years of competitive swimming. You may get lucky trying to narrow down your options...

Hey guys. I am in the process of ordering a Hero 3 Black Edition and I'm looking for any insight, recommendations, tips, etc...for dive use. I am a specialist at Best Buy so I know about a lot of the technical settings etc. but I'm looking for any suggestions. Primarily, it will be used when I...

Fantastic insight! :luxhello: I am also pretty new to diving and have been working on these things as well. For me, being weighted "correctly" has been a challenge. As I do not own my own BC yet, every time I dive they put me in a different rental with different weight distribution. Moreover...

I want to preface this with a note that I love any and all water sports, and it seems like I am always getting caught in front of the camera with no make-up on. (Especially since most of my "dive buddies" and "sports buddies" happen to be men.) After years of "un-tagging" myself in terrible...

This is my routine too. Whenever I go water skiing, snorkeling, diving, etc..in salt water I try not to mess with it until I shower. My hair is very long (most of the way down my back) so I ALWAYS wear it in a tight french braid or in a bun to keep it back. If you just can't stand it, I would...

Thank you for sharing your story so that all of us "newbies" can learn from your mistake. Seriously, I learned a lot from your story. :dork2:

Yes they do :blinking:: The Diving Den: Intro

I agree with everything said. :clapping: Women's sizing isn't an exact science but a more tailored sizing availability would be nice and for heaven's sake, enough with the pink! I am not personally a big pink lover and a lot of seemingly good quality women's equipment only comes in pink or with...

France Park Stone Quarry in Logansport, Indiana. It's very small (max depth 25 feet), but it's great for less experienced divers and there are some pretty cool sights. It has a healthy paddlefish population (some up to 8 feet long) and several "pet" channel catfish which I'm told are four or...

Im my OW class, my final two dives were with only one other student. He was a very nice older gentlemen, but by the end of our dives, we had assumed some rather awkward positions for buddy towing and such. I can see why pairing women together just makes things run smoothly. From a student's...

Good feedback. :coffee: So my next question is this. Are there any women out there who have experience with the lotus i3 systems? I have tried one on at the LCD, and I quite liked the fit. The adjustable chest strap scored points with me because I'm a (somewhat) petite woman and rental BCDs tend...

I'm affiliated with the Diving Den based out of Lafayette, IN. They have a club, store, rental, classes, etc... divingden.com

I'm pretty new to the diving world and have been reading up on the new i3 systems. I am considering buying one for my first BCD. Overall, everyone seems to like them for obvious reasons (convenience, more streamline etc...), but I am curious about the number of potential failure points as well...

This is my first time on a scuba forum so I'm still feeling my way around. I am newly open water certified (padi) but am definitely not new to the water world. Originally I am from the west coast, but I spent much of my childhood making the best of it in the mid-west (competitive swimming, water...
