Thanks for the info. A shop by me does both SDI and PADI. Yea I want to instruct one day. I knew the insurance didn't matter as that crosses over.

I had a few questions regarding a possible switch or dual membership for my DM. I currently hold a PADI DM. What are the benefits to switching or holding a SDI DM? How much does the yearly renewal cost for SDI DM? I know for PADI it is now $125.00 for the year. Any advice would be great...

Bob thank you for this information. From what I am reading from everyone the Kirby is a good choice and that was the way I was already leaning towards. Bob I am going to put your phone number in my phone so when we do get them I will give you a call in how to do the foam kit. If you have...

I am really leaning towards the EXO I just wanted to see what everyone's opinion is on these 2 styles. The one plus with the AGA is that you can have you mask on but not on air, so you are truly at 90% standby diver

thanks, what do you think of the Dive Rite regs for ice diving

A lot of the departments in our area had troubles with them, plus they just didn't feel like they were well constructed. They felt cheaply made. The visor light was awesome on them but that was about all we liked on them.

Has anyone ever used the IST Cold water reg setup?

I am a DM for our Fire Dept and we are looking at going to FFM. We have the selection down to 2 types of masks that we really like. We are a department in Wisconsin so we do ice diving and all of our diving is in cold water including Lake Michigan. Milwaukee Fd uses the EXO and loves them. I was...

We are starting a new diver team and I am trying to see what others think of FFM's. We have narrowed it down to 2 different kinds that we like. The Kirby Morgan Exo Br26 AGA/OTS I am looking for plus and minus, or the Good, the bad and the ugly on both. Any opinions would be great. We are a...

no on lake beulah, booth lake and hidden lakes in mukwonago

Thanks for the info on that. It is always something I have wanted to do in the lake where I live as I was told many mobster used to be in the area and hang out on the lakes in East Troy.

Everything that I have read says that you can't use metal detectors underwater in WI. Our dive club was going to buy one for us to use as a club as we search the lakes for treasures in southeastern WI. Are we wrong and that you can?

We dove on 27 Sep 2014 with the Love's Park Charter. The Northern was 141ft to the bottom and 126ft to the deck. This is by far one of my favorite wreck dives as everything is pretty much still intacted including its cargo. The Northerner...

Thanks for the info my dive instructor is really wants me to know the in's and outs of diving when it comes to being a dive master. Plus she is grooming me to be an instructor one day. So she is making sure that I really understand and know my stuff. What is the "going pro"?

Been doing that as I try to help out as much as I can. Especially watching the different teaching styles.

Thanks for the tips. I will do that. It is pretty easy for me to grasp the concepts and that. Really enjoying this in becoming a DM. I have a really awesome instructor as she has taught me since I started my first class of OW with her.

I am currently doing the PADI DM program. I was wondering is there certain test I should take in a certain order. I am looking for any trips towards the written tests that there is. I have all the other stuff done now I am just working on reading the chapters and doing the writtens. Thanks again...

Hello all, Just wanted to say hi to everyone. Hoping to find a dive buddy in my area. I have been diving for 4 years now. I dive almost every wednesday night with a dive club and in the winter we switch to Sundays as it takes a little time to get setup for Ice diving. I am currently working on...
