I have just returned from my first dive trip after getting certified. Before we left, one of the items to fill out was a form from the dive operator. This form asked when we were certified (May), how many dives since certification (14, all in shallow quarries), and how deep we had gone (60 feet). During our dives, we had dove with mostly the same group of people who had roughly the same amounts of dives as us and were only open water certified. To make a long story short, I had been on 4 dives greater than 80 feet , 4 dives that were between 60 and 80 and 2 (same site) that were 50 feet. Is this common for the dive operators to NOT consider the experience a person has. I thought that this was reckless on their part. I would have backed out of these dives if I didn't think my buddy or myself could have done it safely but with the limited training that most of us had the situations could have been deadly.
