Re: Pony tanks?

We have different philosophies of diving and I hold my convictions as strongly as you hold yours, but you’ll get no shit storm from me.

Re: Pony tanks?

(that would be a pretty damm close shave). I carry one of these bottles on my BC for an absolute sudden OOA situ...

Re: Dive at Muk Oil Dock

I think it was the combination of air in my suit and BC, breathing my tank down, and inadvertantly swimming shallow I went from 60 fsw to about 45 fsw just sort of touling around. I started a slow push to the surface. I dumped everyth...

Re: down loading pics to my profile?

God my eyes suck! even at 1080 I couldn't read the fine print. It looks like theres alot to it though. Hey can you make me look 10 years younger, 30 lbs lighter, and rich!

Now that would be some awsome 'RESIZING'. :supz:

I'll try to see what I can do with that info. thanks.
