Hello, I just recently graduated college and start my new job tomorrow so after about a month or so I should finally have enough free time AND funds to get back into diving. I know there are the White River lakes south of me but never actually went diving there so I'm looking for shops that...

Hello, I'm an engineering student in Missouri and recently finalized the paperwork for a co-op up at Kohler Co. and my aunt lives in Manitowoc so I'll be close to Lake Michigan. I'm currently (PADI) OW certified and would like to try and work toward AOW over summer on the weekends when the...

So I had an issue with my Aeris Manta dive comp and sent it in but it appears USPS lost it in transit and can't find it two weeks after it was supposed to arrive at Oceanic so I'm probably going to be needing a new dive comp and need to order it no later than next Monday. It needs to be nitrox...

I've looked around on here and elsewhere online and still can't find much addressing this set up directly. I'm looking for basic BP&W set up and for $250 it is interesting and as long as the wing and backplate are fine I can put on a different harness easily enough or just make my own from...

I'm selling my Subgear Drift jacket BCD in XL size. This BCD was bought new last August and been only 6 freshwater dives, no fading, simply selling it to switch to BP&W. This sells for $400 new, looking for $250 shipped anywhere in the contiguous US, will ship elsewhere but the cost may...

Hello all, I'm looking to get steel tanks, not too picky on LP or HP just need something I can dive singles with and decided to check here before buying new. Time is important, in about a week and a half I'll just order a new tank if I don't get any responses.

Hello all, I'm looking at getting a wetsuit, now from size charts about the only factory sizes that would fit well are the Pinnacle King 1 or King 2 sizes. My issue is getting a suit that can work well in a wide range of temps, since I am in the lovely bipolar midwest I need a suit configuration...

Hello everyone, since now I'm almost done with my OW I'm looking into gear. Now since I'm in college price is important and one thing that would certainly keep my prices down is a used regulator however it's not one I'm buying online or from a local guy it's my dad's old Sherwood regulator from...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a decent set of gear for just starting to dive and came across the Oceanic Competitive Package. For my needs I will likely do around 20 to 30 dives a year and all in the late spring to early fall range since I am in college so water temps will be 60F+. This gear...

Well took in my dad's old tank to get a hydrostatic and the guy took one look at the brand and date, told me he wouldn't fill it even if it passes inspection and neither would local dive shops. I asked him and he said the Luxfer aluminum used was a poor alloy and prone to failures, when I looked...

I'm going to be going for PADI OW in the next month but one of my concerns is the medical release form. I know it is pretty standard for a physical form but this has an emphasis on diving so my concerns jump to the fact that I have roughly 1&1/4 lungs after I had 3/4 of my right lung removed...

I'm looking to finally go for my OW certification and will likely just do it occasionally when the weather is nice and I have a free weekend since my roommate (as of June 1st) is also OW certified. Now I will have access to all of my dad's equipment which has been kept up and was used right...

Hello all, I'm new to the board and not even certified yet, but should be by the end of June. I decided to go for certification because my roommate starting June 1st is already OW certified and I figured it would be fun for the summer to make a couple diving trips. Another big reason is my dad...
