    ScubaBoarders on Cozumel in MAY

    Highanddry...we are there the same time too. I love this resort. We arranged all our dives with Dressel over the weekend and they were extremely efficient. Got a great deal on pre-payment of dives as well. We're also booked to do a cenote trip one day, and our dives will be morning dives...

    ScubaBoarders on Cozumel in MAY

    My boyfriend and I will be at the Iberostar May 10th-17th. Not sure who we will dive with, probably Dressel. Are there still any issues with some dive ops not picking up divers from that pier?

    What scuba diving goals did you accomplish in 2007?

    I did my Rescue course in 2007 and got in double the amount of dives I thought I would:D For 2008, I want to log my 100th dive. And dive the Blue Hole in Belize in April.

    OW is this for me?

    Beth, I'm just reading this thread a little late and you are hopefully in Maui and certified by now. Please do come back to tell us how you did. I had issues with lead and neoprene during my OW checkout dives too. I am not a small woman. I didn't have pounding surf to deal with however...

    Success, but...

    I hardly ever am able to clear my ears easily. I have to really focus on it, so I get into a rhythym of breathing and equalizing. If I forget to do this, then I have to ascend a few feet at some point. I'll also start to equalize while I'm on shore or on the boat, before the dive. I find...

    SoCal Dive Trip Nov 13th - 19th

    Billy's right - this should be moved to one of the Ontario forums - sounds like a fantastic trip! Got me thinking ..... but I'm already going to Belize with you guys in March so now I need to do some creative budgeting :coffee:

    Failed OW for Breathing Too Much; How can I fix it?

    Up here, this is the typical configuration for divers who don't yet possess the means to acquire a drysuit (myself included :shakehead:). We start out in our OW checkout dives wearing this and let me assure you, air consumption does improve. Water temperatures range from high 60's to low 40's...

    My dad passed away on 9/11

    What a beautiful tribute to your father. I'm sure he would have loved reading that. He was lucky to have a daughter who loves him as much as you do and you are lucky to have such wonderful memories. My dad turned 84 this year and I just dread the day. :hugs:

    dive scenario - need feedback

    I was wondering, did you breathe off your tank during that half mile surface swim? That is a long surface swim. Even if you didn't, I can't imagine arriving at the wreck not being somewhat out of breath and anxious. Not that we're discussing your air consumption in this thread and I don't...

    What Women Want... Dork Diver Style!

    Hey Stacey! Nice to have you aboard and I like the way you think. Actually, you can buy little tiny pearls. Well - let me think about that. I can buy little tiny pearls from my distributor. Not sure if I've seen them any other place. They would make awesome dive toes and go beautifully with...
