Hi guys, I have some questions for GUE Cave 2 divers or higher (o instructors, even of different agencies, but with experience enough to answer). I have done 25 cave 1 dives plus a bit of rec and tec experience after my cave one course, and every time I am in a cave, I would like to have a bit...

Hi guys, I have equipment only for cold water diving, and now it's time to buy something for the summer :) I have two options: 1 - buy a lighter undergarment for my trilaminate drysuit; I am especially interested in the SANTI flex190 2 - buy a wetsuit I use steel double 12l tanks, and I plan...

Two weekends ago, I took Friday, Saturday and Sunday off to dive with my club. For several reasons, I could sleep only three hours on Friday night and six on Saturday night, although I had plenty of rest (read it: laying on the bed with my eyes closed - and my roommate snoring a lot). On...

Hi everyone, this message may sound silly... but trying is free, so here am I Because I am finalizing a PhD in acoustical engineering, I would like to understand if there are any possibilities for a temporary job in a scientific/conservationist field where I can dive a lot - for when I finish...

Hi all, I have an AL80 that has always been used with air. Now I want to use it for deco, but it isn't oxy compatible right now. Is there any way to make it oxygen compatible? Easy enough to do it at home possibly. IMPORTANT: tank and valve as well Thanks!

Hi everyone! I tried to look for some PADI TecRec reports, but couldn't find any here. Basically, I am interested in the procedures taught during the courses up to TecRec 50, especially: - emphasis on basic skills (trim/buoyancy/team awareness) - team vs solo mentality - safety drill - valve...

Hi guys! Old discussion, I've read so many threads, but I still cannot figure out what are the main differences in terms of contents between GUE Cave 1 and other courses (so NOT about the way of teaching and/or presenting contents). My point is that I really cannot understand what a GUE...

Hi everyone! I couldn't find any similar thread on the forum... but if there is actually something, feel free to share the link to previous discussion! I need to buy regulators for deco. Currently I dive with doubles and I have 2 MK25EVO+G260. I dive often in cold water (6/7°C - 43/45°F) and...

Hi everyone, I am trying to figure out an efficient way to measure my heartbeat underwater. I dive with dry-suits and dry-gloves, so wrist-sensor is not an option. I have a garmin descent mk1, and I tried to use a garmin toracic belt (the one designed for triathlon), but it doesn't work at...

Hi everybody! I have a problem with cold water, and despite a trilaminate dry-suit with very thick undergarment sometimes I get really cold underwater. The thing is that, after a (some) dive(s) where I felt, for a reason or another, very cold, I tend to have sympthoms that may resemble...

Hi everyone! It's a bit of time that I signed up here and that I read some discussions. Time to start using this beautiful forum more proactively! See you around :))
