Hi Everyone,
I am new to these boards, but I have lurked here for a little while because of the abundance of info on these boards.
I am fairly new to diving. I have been on 3 Discover dives (resort course). I was gung ho about finally getting my certification this summer but......
I tore my ACL in a soccer game 3 weeks ago.
I need to put off surgery until Christmas due to work, but I still wanted to become certified before my surgery. Am I crazy to try this? Should I just wait? My surgeon says he is certified, and doesn't see why I couldn't become certified prior to surgery. My question is will the open water dives be difficult with the instability in my knee. I think my knee will make it through the classroom part.
All second opinions are welcome.
Thanks
Joe
