    Using an SCR range for gas planning

    A reply I posted on another forum might have some benefit here. The reality is no one has a fixed SCR so learning exactly what your SCR is on a given day has little practical meaning. A better approach is to look at SCR as an ideal range that you want to be in. Most skilled divers should...

    UTD and GUE protocol and procedural differences

    Since I completely railroaded the V-planner thread I figured I would spin this off and see if we could have a discussion about the differences between the two. I want to see how many think its minor and can be addressed in an above water discussion or if the differences are so great that when...

    What equipment failures have you seen underwater?

    Sort of a spin off from another thread but what failures have you actually seen? I actually saw my first serious gear failure the other weekend and it was a weird one. I was doing a shallow water training dive off a tourist charter and a diver on the boat had her high pressure hose come off...

    Deco bottle leash

    Does anyone have a good ballpark length for a leash? I'm planning on making one and want to know if you guys have found a good generic length to start with. Ive been borrowing them up till now and some seem to long causing a bottle to float out of that good tucked position. Thanks

    OMG JeffG is a moderator!!

    I somehow find this both terrifying and appropriate all at the same time. :11: On another note, what level of conservatism do you build into the rule of 130 (assuming 32%) when diving more then 2 dives a day if any.

    Why NOT to make DIR forum opt-in?

    1) If it is opt-in non-dir divers might not find out about DIR The first time I learned about DIR was on Scubaboard.... before there was a DIR forum. I am pretty sure DIR will be thrown around enough outside the forum if it was opt-in to make people look into it further and then join. 2...

    Question on living in Hawaii (Oahu)

    I may have the chance to get a job in Hawaii. From what I've researched the cost of living is up there compared to South Carolina. Has anyone moved from the states to Hawaii recently? Is the cost of living as inflated as it seems? Personally and professionally it makes since to move...
