planning

Am I the only one that starts obsessing about a trip 2 1/2 months before it starts? I'm not talking about booking flights or hotels or even the boat / buddies but I find I start fondling my gear, buying new stuff, watching videos (even if not of the actual location), and getting all my gear out...

As I progress upon my diver journey, I find myself wanting to log my dive plans -- time, depth, plans at depth. Partly, I want to do this to see how closely I'm able to match my planned dive profile. Partly, I want to dial in some of the more technical aspects of those dives that might revolve...

Hey all. Does anyone know what tank sizes BLDS at Truuk use for its twinsets and stages? Trying to get the jump on some planning. Thanks.

A friend and I recently got our Cavern Diver certifications. We plan to go diving at Morrison Springs this weekend. We need to rent gear/air/nitrox and I want to understand the layout of the cavern before going so that I can plan our dive(s) to reduce the chances of bends/narcosis. I was...

I've done a variety of dives and I'm getting pretty comfortable now. I've greatly improved my SAC and bouyancy, though I have far to go. I have only been diving while on vacations, so my plan is to start quarry diving locally (Ohio) to hone my skills and learn new skills. Problem is, I've...

Recently I got in contact with GUE's Software for planning dives, Deco Planner, and swiftly noticed that It doesn't support RGBM algorithm. Instead it supports VPM. Why is this? I have read that RGBM support evidence has been published by many research papers contrary to VPM.. Is the DIR...

I have 24 logged dives and am doing my PADI rescue in a few months. I love the ocean and diving and keep seeing tons of discussions all over different forums about topics and concepts I really don't understand, be it 'USN dive tables' or 'buoyancy swing' and 'neutral jets', where can I learn...
