So, let me start off with a little background: I wanted to dive deep shipwrecks from day 1. And dive deep in general. I was completely fascinated with the idea before I even walked into the dive shop and signed up for my OW class. I had read a little bit about it- the Outside magazine article...

Improvements and changes - Rebreather World congratulations, Curt! A lot of us CCR divers can't wait to see what you're going to do with the new site!:popcorn:

Hi- I'm brand new to tech diving. Just completed advanced Eanx and Deco, looking to do Trimix in a couple months, and I'm curious as to what computers everyone here likes. I'm leaning towards a VR-3, I like the Cochrans, but I'm told you can't do gas switching "on the fly" with them, which seems...

OK, so I've been thinking a lot about doing the solo thing. I'm looking for pointers on gear, mostly. The most obvious thing seems to be a redundant air supply in the event of a burst disk/ first stage failure. I've been diving with a 40 cf pony for a bit, and Just started carrying it in the...

Just got my new VT Pro in the water yesterday, and I must say, I absolutely love it! Great computer, and I'm very happy with it. The Oceanlog software....well, Not so much, yet. Anyway, I did 2 dives with it yesterday, 1st one: 101fsw max depth, 42 minutes duration;1 hour surface interval, the...

Is what I am in this bad boy! Did my first 2 dives in it yesterday. Aside from the stunning appearance, it's very well made. I'm quite happy with it, and I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend USIA to anyone in the market for a new drysuit.

I read through the other thread (What would you do?) and it made me think about my dive last week. I'm new and still kind of an air hog, but I went diving with 2 new buddies last week. One of them just got his doubles rigged up, and the other has been diving doubles for a while. I was really...

Just doing a little research, here. I'm very new to diving, and just got interested in so called "undeserved" hits- I get the part about how anybody at any time can suffer DCS, even on a consevative dive, well within established NDLs. What I don't quite grasp is why everyone's first question to...

Hi, all- I'm very new, and trying to understand some stuff here. I just recently completed PADI OW and the first half of AOW, when I realized that I knew next to nothing, and that my texts had not-so-much usefull info in them. I put up a post in the "Basic Scuba" discussion thread asking for...

You know, I feel dumb asking this, but: I just got OW certified (PADI). I'm in the process of getting AOW certified- did the first half of the class, waiting for everyone's schedule to synch up so we can complete it. I've read the texts, bought some gear, and I love it, but it suddenly...

Hi, everyone- I'm very new to diving. I just got my OW cert 3 weeks ago, and did....well, half my AOW Saturday- I was supposed to do the second half today, actually, but, there's only one other student in my class, and her and our instructor both came down with colds after our two dives...

Hello, everyone. I'm brand new to diving, and to this site. Just got open water certified two weeks ago, and I'll be taking the advanced class this coming weekend. We're taking a boat out on Hood Canal, and going to be doing one night dive. I really like this sport, and hope to be diving a lot...
