Yeah I do have my own mask, and I was fitted for it by doing that inhaling and letting it suction to my face....but once under water it would start leaking. It was determined that my hood was the main cause so I took my hood off for the next dice then I was fine. I got a new mask (my second...
Ha ha ...you got the flyer too!!! The secrets out. Thanks for the heads up....I'll check it out......Who do you usually purchase gear from? Have you ever used sports Chalet to purchase equipment? What was your experience? Thanks
A sports store here in town is offering the Mares v16 Proton XL regulator to the first 30 customers at 200.00 off. Since I have not purchased gear before I thought I would ask does anyone have it? How do they like it? For those that have used other regs, how does it compare? I am a small...
In my OW class last month, I asked about the dive tables. My instructor was not planning on teaching that to us as we all had RDP's. Though those things are easy to use, I asked him what would happen if it failed? I asked him to show us how to use the tables. The students in the class did...
Please let me know how you like this as I too saw that and orange is my favorite color. I however rarely ever buy anything over the internet except books. It would be great to get first hand feedback on how you like it!!
I just told everyone I had to go check the props (as in propeller), and then walked into the water...(we were doing shore dives so it took everyone a moment to figure out there were no props, and they got the hint):rofl3:

In the pool we worked on bouyancy and weights. I understand that you should carry weights at approxamatly 10% of your actual weight. ( I weigh about 112) My first try I could not sink (descend) at all. Subsequent dives I...
I am taking one of the new PADI quick classes or whatever they are called. I chose this as I do not have the time to do a lengthier course as I work and go to school. I like the fact that we can do all of the book work and reading on our own...I retained much more doing it at my own pace than...
I just began doing my OW and I am going to get my certification on April 28/29th. I had problems clearing my mask too, but now it is really no problem. I had the most anxiety while doing my oral inflation of my BC. I am still not comfortable doing this as I took in a mouth full of water...
