    Diving with ear tubes

    Tatufairy ..... I have had a perforated eardrum for the past 18 months that hais been freakishly slow to close ... the ENT says the hole is smaller than an eartube now, but may never close without surgery. It's an inconvenient time for me to have surgery right now, but I've had it with not...

    pro-ear mask review

    ProEar Report So .... I got my Pro-Ear mask (panoramic model from Seavenger.com .... ran close to $90 incl shipping ... 45 day return policy). Tried it out in the pool scrubbing algae for about an hour yesterday down to 8'. Ears dry. No leaks on the earcups, but the mask leaks just a bit...

    pro-ear mask review

    Pro-Ear thread bump. Here's the deal. I perfed my eardrum (non-diving injury) a little over a year ago. This same eardrum had been perfed onced before about six years previous to that & had healed with no problems. This time it's healed over the course of a year to a very tiny hole, but...

    Lake Ouachita, AR

    I'll mark Sept 26 down as a tentative for the two of us. I have a 17ft fish-n-ski I may or may not haul up, I live a little closer than most - we could take one other in it with dive gear, still be a little tight. Probably rather just go in on a rental pontoon with others if I may.

    Most likely Wed the19th. Be glad to have some company. I need to check & see if we can get tank rentals in the middle of the week out there - or if we are going to have to haul ours out with us. My JOW & I are taking a grand tour of a slice of Texas that week: CSSP Fri 8/14 unless it rains...

    For Swampers in the DFW Area (Only)

    What happened? Did somebody find out that the consumption of Taco Bell bean burritos is a disqualification for NAUI MD? Causes buoyancy problems maybe? :D

    Been to Bonaire 10 times but this trip got some stuff stolen..

    Too bad folks can't rig their vehicles with pepper-spray booby traps.

    Holiday weekend at CSSP

    If all goes well this week, I'm planning on arriving Fri morning & hope to get in at least a couple of dives on Fri. I probably won't be there Sat - but will swing back through on Sun for a couple more. Only problem is - my dive bud is out of town, so I'll be looking for somebody to dive...

    New dive boat biz in the Keys

    I can understand you're not wanting to be in the equipment rental or air biz - but I'd think you should think about at least having weights available which are kind of a no maintenance re-use item & one less thing for your customers to have to rent before they go out with you. (at least for...

    Clear Springs on Sunday, May 31?

    I'll be there all day Sat & Sun a.m. (planning to camp over) I thought the temp last Sat above 20' was lovely in a 3mm. Kind of chilly below so we didn't drop down there for very long. Probably be a few degrees warmer this weekend is my guess.

    Diving at CSSP this Saturday

    Aaaah, I see now. Of course I also often misunderstand my JOW's made-up weird hand signals too. (who by the way just now informs me that "Amish" diving involves using a long hollow reed instead of Scuba gear :D)
