    Just signed up for my 1st dive class! Advice please.

    Welcome to scuba board! See if you can rent different types so you can try before you buy. Like shoes, some fins take a bit to get used to. I have a range of finds and really happy with my Scuba Pro Nova fins.

    Study Buddy or tutor needed in Chiba

    I don't think that really fits with the spirit of a certification. Why don't you suggest the student diver take PADI E-Learning in Japanese? Have her work with the shop she plans to do her check out dives with. If that does not work, work with an instructor old school manual and direct instruction.

    Vintage diver ñew to SB

    Welcome back! Consider taking a specialty course such as Search & Recovery. This can really help sharpen skills but also get you to see some of the newer kit in action. I bet the tanks are due for an inspection:)

    Starting over from scratch...

    Welcome back! The Zoop is pretty economical even if you buy it new. Scuba Pro Jets are still primo in my view, especially if you are diving dry.
