Howdy from Texas and welcome to SB!jepuskar:I am taking a pre-SCUBA course called Discover SCUBA this Thursday. I have done alot of research and read about the pros and cons of SCUBA diving and I must say this is really exciting stuff.
The funny thing is...I am not much of a water person...well atleast I didnt think I was. I went snorkeling for the 1st time in April 2000 in St. Croix..it was the first time ever in the ocean and the first time I was in water I couldn't touch the ground in. :/ I was put in the water and told to breath out of a tube..lol..needless to say...the water was choppy and I was not a happy landlover.
My girlfriend thought I would never try it again, but I did.
Now I am alot more comfortable in the water and have decided to take the next and most logical step..although swimming lessons might help too.
I have read several posts about peoples experiences being introduced to SCUBA and I am trying not to let any one of them 'sink' in. Everyone takes to the new experience differently, I am certainly excited about this Thursday. If I like it then I will sign up for the PADI open water cert.
Ohh and by the way..I dont normally write this much..soo dont worry on future posts.
