About our group:
The lament of the modern dive store and dive consumer is typical in an industry where innovators have been acquired by investment firms and quality has become just another column on the...
I thought this might be a useful discussion until I saw this post. Please go research some industry numbers over a 20 year period including interviews with sales people who have been in the industry for at least 15 years. Then come back to the discussion with a more complete insight. It will...
Absolutely correct Trace. it is a shame that nobody was listening to those of us who were outraged when the "industry" decided to make diving our "grandparents" sport back in the early/mid 90's. Guess what? They succeeded and if you have any doubt go visit any local dive show and take an age...
Hey Guys I just found this thread and I really appreciate all of the comments. More importantly I hope that the book is making a difference in the overall safety of our sport. To answer a few of the questions - I wrote "Lessons for Life" in SCUBA Diving Magazine from 2001 through early 2009...

RE: The 1st GREEN COMMERICIAL CHARTER in Key West is SEAduction!
SEAduction Key West Dive Center became the first commercial charter in Key West and the first Dive Charter in the Florida Keys to go GREEN with 100% Bio-Diesel...
We can do a triple feature for you in Key West as well! SEAduction Key West is the shop I am affiliated with and we do a double dip on the Vandenberg every morning and a triple feature Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. The 3 tank varies but most typically we dive the Vandenberg followed by...
I have a trip to the Vandy 22 -27 May and I have a couple of divers that were in the storm zone two weeks ago. They need to pull out of the trip and we are trying to help them fill the spots so they do not lose any boat fees.
I am leading the trip and will be conducting some wreck...
Just saw this post an wanted to respond/clarify: Nothing in the SSI standards or materials requires "backmounting" your "back gas". Perhaps the better term would be "bottom gas" in the current environment. Although I will admit that at this time our program materials are oriented to the...
You are correct the offer was only made to the original owner. Scubapro is notorious about tracking those receipts and warranty cards. I have had more than one legitimate customer jump through many hoops to get warranty work because he did not send in the card. So the second answer is - you...
Actually all of the Air X Nitrox and Air X computers were filled with a gel similar to silicone. I was told in a Scubapro/Uwatec service tech course it was silicone - but I cannot verify it. It is the only unit done that way to the best of my knowledge. Apparently the mfg did not intend to...
The Air X series was one of the better UWATEC units over the years - unfortunately it is no longer supported. I have been a SCUBAPRO Dealer for over a decade and was still diving one of these units recreationally until 2006, when my battery died the last time. When you send the unit in you...
SORRY THIS DOUBLE POSTED SOMEHOW _ PLEASE IGNORE
Steve,
Thank you for the reply and you are correct it would have been better if we could have written a separate and targeted release for all of the venues. Unfortunately, posting a set press release is a lot more efficient, especially when...
Steve,
Thank you for the reply and you are correct it would have been better if we could have written a separate and targeted release for all of the venues. Unfortunately, posting a set press release is a lot more efficient, especially when several people are posting it and it is going to a...
Mike Ange and SEAduction.com are announcing today the new branding of Mikes highly-acclaimed monthly column, which was previously published in SCUBA Diving as "Lessons for Life" from 2001 through early 2009. "Diver Down" is the new column brand, see details on the decision to change the brand...
Hi Blades,
Sorry so long to respond, I have been traveling a bit. Thank you for the post and also the email you sent me. I did know that DRI was requiring routine fitness testing and I appaud you guys for it. I did not list you because I was focussed primarily on the recreational (including...
In response this was already addressed effectively by Mike Boswell and I agree with him but of course being a writer I have to elaborate a bit.
The DAN data is invaluable for what it does and it does present a very significant body of useable and useful statistics. But as my stats...
In spite of how obvious these issues look - dozens of divers repeat the same mistakes year after year. Suprisingly, it is the more experienced divers that seem to get into a lot of trouble. We all tend to get complacent and the more you do something the more you take for granted. Show me any...
