Re: AOW Certification
I once had a fellow with over 500 dives take my AOW class. I found a way to challenge him to learn something ... ... Bob (Grateful Diver) What did he learn? My AOW was basically 5 dives. A 20 min night dive where my buddy corked, a 25 minute deep dive to 80 ft, a "wreck" dive circling the...

Re: AOW Certification
In Maui if you didn't have the right card for a dive...all you had to do was sign a waiver. Even if you had no card whatsoever.

Re: AOW Certification
I know one diver that was a NAUI certified instructor with 300 dives, and she refused to teach classes or even tell people she was an instructor because she knew she wasn't a very good diver yet. What does that tell you? That she should have gone with PADI? :stickwhack: Bad Troll, back under the br...

Re: AOW Certification
AOW cert is nice when you're on vacation, can get you into better dives.
I did mine right after OW. I wouldn't care for taking the class now that I have a lot more dives. The AOW dives cater to the very new...so if that's where you are at it would probably be a good fit.

Re: MMM 12-12-11 Lumpy Hunt!
I'm sure the fact that Tom talks about his guns all the time is unrelated to his lack of enemies... Sssshhhhh! The only gun I have is a squirt gun. Maybe one of these days, I'll bring it and take it down with me for a dive so I can squirt all of you. :snipersmiley: Noooooo! Not the squirt gun!!!! W...

Sorry Jeremy, but the lighting sucked and even edited down it's not much to look at. If you really want I can post it to Youtube but the gopro is capable of so much better that I wanted to try again with my new video lights before uploading any video. And by the way, now that your an experienced Ti...

Re: EUP Parking Lot finally is cleared and is OPEN
I was thinking just Brooks and Daisy were open right now, but not sure.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to some good La Nina skiing...but where is the snow???
