would you have any hesitation about diving to 100' within your first 10 dives?
I went to 103' on dive #7, which was in fact my "Deep Dive" for AOW.

would you have any hesitation about diving to 100' within your first 10 dives?
I have to re-evaluate my choices.I just dove three hours ago (on a long lunch break).
i did a 140' on my 9th dive and a 210' shipwreck on my 23rd with very experienced divers, my AOW course was on my 31st dive. but i would personally not recommend this..
NAUI and PADI Open Water Certifications allow diving limits down to 60 feet (18m).
I took NAUI AOW and that is limited down to 130ft (w/ deep diving specialty).
PADI references "Limits" and NAUI references Maximums (per their web sites).
NAUI:The Advanced Scuba Diver course is an enjoyable certification course for 12-year-old (or older) certified divers who desire additional training, have moved from one diving area to another and desire local orientation, do not have, but wish to obtain, NAUI certification, or who desire orientation to a variety of diving sites and conditions.
As part of your certification, you will complete a minimum of six open water dives including three separate dives for navigation, night or low visibility diving and deep diving (130 feet/40 meters maximum depth), plus three different dives.
its your call on how comfortable you were in your class and any dives after your class.
