Another quick note. If you place a ziptie through the hole in the nosepiece and around the rear of the nosepiece, wraping around the metal wire, it will keep the nosepiece from falling out while diving. Of course this is best if you are issued your own gear. I think its easier to get a good...

Florida Keys Community College Public Safety Diver Course Check out this link. I just completed this course and it was excellent. I have completed other PSD classes, but this was a two week school in Key West. The instructors were knowledgeable. I’m not sure if enrollment is just...

Take a look at the link, there is a bracket that helps you mount the comm box near the tank on your back. Innovative Dive Equipment Inc.

Get with John Hott, Ocean Technology Systems. He is very willing to help. There are also articles that can help you with thru water vs. hard wire. Check their website. OTS sells communication gear and full face masks. As far as the full face mask, the Interspiro Diveator (also know as the...

Yeah thats a bummer, I heard the info when i was OCSD taking that AGA repair class. Our team was going to send a few people this year. Oh well, guess there is always next year. By the way, I want to throw a little plug for DRI. Thanks to the guys from Dive Rescue for a good class. I took...

At 2am out team responded to a vehicle in the water complaint. The witness did not see anyone get out of the vehicle, so we were called to the scene. After conducting a anchor point we were able to locate the vehicle approximately 100 feet directly out from the tread marks. This particular...

YouTube - Carving pumpkins underwater helps train dive team This could also be spun into a team public service by donating the Pumpkins to the local poor after the training. Would make even a better news story. Just food for thought. -Eric

In my opinion this article is a result of a poor rapport with the media. Even a press conference after this event could have answered a lot of questions. I do like the idea of the media shadowing the team, but the problem with that is "was the right media person chosen?" It seemed like a...

Does anyone have the flier for the 2009 public safety dive competition and forum held every year in Orlando? If so can you PM me, or post the flier. Thanks in advance. -Eric

I have to complete a training session for our dive team on the use of the pillow lift bags to recover a vehicle. I was wondering if anyone here already had a powerpoint that they wouldn't mind sharing. It would save a lot of time. thanks -Eric

I have a digital copy of the Aga Mask Operating Instructions, which include a breakdown and some basic service instructions. Email me at srqco@msn.com if you want me to e-mail it to you. I tried to upload it to the website but it is 1.5mb and it wouldnt let me. Im not that experienced with...

I like the AGA mask, but there is no way that our team would be able to use hardwire communication. We have a difficult time just keeping the safety line from being hung up on stuff. we use the OTS wireless comm box. Its not perfect, but with practice you are able to communicate and there is...
