Like most every one has said, NSS CDS doubles expire in 18 months, NACD 12. If all you want is to dive doubles and stick to 1/6th on the gold line, no expiration for doubles with TDI.

Congrats!!

I did a scuba review today where two of the three got certified 10 years ago, haven't dove in 7 years, total dives 11. Can you say, DSD in the shallow end then move to the deep end for skills. This is more the norm than the exception. Scuba reviews will open your eyes to having that card and...

I agree Doomnova, you sound like you have the right frame of mind to pursue your DM. I earned mine a couple of weeks ago and have since finished my DSD Leader and do my first independent scuba review this weekend. The past weekend, as a DM, I cleaned up the backend on all four OW dives and...

I got 11 dives in two weeks ago, water temp 79. I wore a 3 mil which was perfect.

Stuart Cove's will pick you up, no additional charge, in Nassau for less than those rates.

Dove there two weeks ago had a great time diving with Stuart's Cove. The pickup from Cable Beach was timely, even when calling first thing in the morning for spur of the moment dives. We stayed at Blue Water Resort, ate at several local places, stayed away from PI, had a great dinner at Color...

Same here, study book and instructor manual. I did dive theory online.

Thanks, I chose Nassau as my fiancee and her daughter are doing their open water referrals and they wanted a vacation other than just diving. My son is also certified. After all the cold water diving in KY this winter along with all the pool time in divemaster any warm water with pretty fish...

Hey gang, we head out Saturday for a vacation...along with some diving....to Nassau this Sat the 11th for a week. I've already booked the "required" shark dive with Stuart Cove's but.....what are some of the don't miss dives from your experience. I'll be spending a couple of dives just...

Yes, it did spiral a bit out of control. Let's see, I DM exchanged in rental BCD, leaving for Nassau Sat and will dive in a single wing and standard reg setup, when I get back I'll pop into the overheads in FL in my redundant bladder double wing with doubles and 7 footer.....with that said, in...

This is exactly how my DM-C class of 6 just did our equipment exchange and followed up the following weekend mentoring a rescue class. I just finished a confined water class and demoed equipment removal and replacement on the surface. It helped by being familiar with the LDS equipment to demo...

Congrats on the big step. Study, learn, watch, listen, study, learn, watch and listen some more ;) Seriously, shadow as many different instructors as you can and pick up things from each of them. DM training is well worth the time and effort. Tonight I'm sitting in on an OW class with a...

Someone previously posted their preprogramed C1 & C2 settings for macro and non macro on G series cameras.....I have searched and can't find it. Basically, the post listed flash/non flash/fstop/speed/macro/white balance settings and such so that a newbee could switch to C1 or C2 and have...

Sorry, Interceptor after I saw your post I realized I had you mixed up with someone else who is a Canon G series enthusiast and remembered you are not. Not to flame, to each his own. Thanks though and again, sorry.

Somewhere I saw your post about C1 & C2 settings for macro and wide angle, in my case, a canon G10. I am using an ikelite ttl strobe and would like to pre program the C1 & C2 settings for macro flash (AV or TV)and wide no flash (AV, TV or manual). For the life of me, I cannot find your prior...

Good for Kelan from New Horizons!!!!!

Jim has certainly forgot more about cavern diving than I know but I'll add this, in addition to learning better trim and buoyancy, cavern instruction will make you a better OW diver from a mental preparation standpoint. Get cavern, enjoy P1 back to the peanut side sign.

Tonight we finished up the class portion of DM, took the test, 58-60, I'm taking the dive theory online. Missed one typical padi question, actually the other two who took the test tonight missed the same question....padi. The other was just a bonehead moment. Mentoring/Monitoring a rescue...

Thanks gang. Yep, I'll be diving rather shallow on Saturday. I plan on working on getting horizontal, descending, working on adding gas, moving it around and "trying" to find that sweet spot and try and keep that feel at different depths. Gonna start with 25 lbs total and work it out from...
