    DIR- GUE Why are non-GUE divers so interested in what GUE does?

    Hi Mario, From an outsider’s perspective, if you were the Marketing Director, do you think this method of targeting existing GUE divers is working? With that said, would a more community oriented position also work well? I ask because Marketing has changed quite a bit in the last few years and...

    DIR- GUE Why are non-GUE divers so interested in what GUE does?

    @boulderjohn Very cool. I hear UTD was more of a west coast thing? I’m an East Coast guy so FL was my haven until the Midwest.

    I had no idea you knew so much about GUE’s history and current operation. Today I learned, thanks John.

    DIR- GUE Why are non-GUE divers so interested in what GUE does?

    Ya know it’s funny, everyone loves to bash on GUE here on SB, but I’ve yet to encounter folks who take what GI3 was saying (in the 90’s) and critically think about why he was saying it in the first place, right or wrong. Hate on GUE all you want—but it would be hard to say GUE didn’t raise...

    DIR- GUE Why are non-GUE divers so interested in what GUE does?

    @tursiops I’m sorry, what? Can you tell us more about how not all DIR is GUE? I’m a little confused. I assume DIR and GUE are the same, considering the founder of GUE also founded the term “Doing it Right.” Sure, I guess some agencies like UTD and ISE have copied it (sort of), but I’m a little...

    DIR- GUE Why are non-GUE divers so interested in what GUE does?

    We know that is the same thing, right? The term “DIR” was entered into the dive history books via the “Doing it Right, The Fundamentals of Better Diving” book by Jarrod Jablonski.

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    “../s” after your paragraph is how you write sarcasm @grf88. This thread has been a hoot, see you avatars on the beach. 😂

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    Here's the deal for you gatekeeping boomers, you're scared — you bring up my background thinking it's some kind of flex but even when I show you all how to calculate minimum gas you're lost. You even dig into my history grasping at your pearls to somehow throw my training into the trash while...

    Wait, tell me more about how my credentials don't align with someone else that fits your narrative. Come on, @grf88, I know you can't stand not having the last word.

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    Folks on here typically post more than they dive, and I'm trying to get this thread to 100 pages for a book I'm writing.

    From September 25th (when I started the thread) till now, November 29th—I have logged 46 dives without a pony bottle. Where are you guys/gals at?

    Why Expert Divers Might Not Make The Best Instructors. What You Can Do To Improve Your Teaching

    This is a great article and begs to question, what can we do to improve our teaching? (It would probably help to read the article before posting your reply)

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    Could you please add my entire quotes? Some of these replies are cherry picked and were answered in my view if you add the entire comment. E.g. Your statements: "You have to look at the forest, not just the trees of your choice if you are going to have a meaningful conversation." "I...

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    I'm going to come back to this one last time. If you look back at the thread, I never once said redundancy was not necessary. I showed that if the diver would like more bottom time within MDL and a redundant gas source—manifolded doubles would be the best option. This example is stated in the...

    Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

    Last post for me on this topic: I let the internet and my ego get the best of me the past few days on here. I dive a certain way that I love, and I would be happy to show anyone how to dive that way if they are interested. The ideas and procedures in this sport can be very passionate, and...
