Northwest Dive Club

The first time I dove Redondo, I was the first in our group to get to the carousel boat.. needless to say, I had never heard of the effing skull that was on it. NOT what I was expecting on a night dive..

What's funny is the "sipping from the reg" practice in theory freaked me out the most, but in practice it was almost laughable at how easy it was.. I couldn't take my mask off without drinking water through my nose tho.. I had a hell of time with that one. A few times sitting in my hot tub...

Lynne, Just out of curiosity, if it doesn't reveal proprietary information, how will you be modifying the procedures you use in your class? When an AOW class only has 4 or 5 dives and 4 or 5 missions or goals to accomplish it doesn't leave a lot of time for actual training. It seems to me that if y...

Had the same question myself. Once you ascend, you don't just sink like that. Much as I hate random speculation: if a diver were to experience an arterial gas embolism during a rapid ascent, they might aspirate enough water to become negatively buoyant. Maybe. Or maybe something else happened. Or n...

Sold, pending trade.

It's the autocross package.

Used on four dives then I upgraded. Really have no use for it.

+1 I wanna go help. I just saw that they are suspending the search during the overnight hours on KOMO news. My thoughts and prayers are with the divers family. When I lived in Ohio many of the Search and Rescue Divers were volunteers who were divers first, and often worked other jobs. But it doesn't...

this is awesome =) I needed this, thank you!

I still say that DIW or 3 tree point (or whatever is near octopus hole?) are my favorite walls. Delco (sp?) is worthwhile as well

tho... I already texted this to you >.<

We can split gas costs tho and maybe get Richard as a third for friday

+1 something I have found that helps me from getting sore is focusing more on adducting your calves with both feet in a 45 degree eversion and not focusing so much on plantar-flexion on the foot. Think of it as "clapping" the bottoms of your feet together. Practicing this on the floor just...

+1. Another thing to think about is diving as part of a 3 person team. Reduce the stress load, increase the safety for you and your buddy. If diving is the thing you love, and it brings joy to your heart, do it as long as you can. I am quite sure you can find people who are willing, able and trained...

yeah, it has everything that came with it when I got it. I just read the book, copied the homework pages and put it back in its little bag thing ;-) It has a color recognition chart thingy that came with it, but I never had to use it on my aow dives

I have mine still, none of the pages were written in (I just photo-copied the homework pages) that you're welcome to have if you are ever up this way again.

I read this a few days ago and meant to get to it, but got caught up in other things.. I am not a doctor (yet) nor do I have PD, but a family member does and I had a few ideas/thoughts related to this before you had even posted it.. Have you considered a full faced-mask? in lieu of safety protocols,...

someone please link that pic on this thread. I am in a dispute with a buddy that just because it's called a turret, it doesnt mean it needs to be upside down swinging hoses above your head.

Thank yoy for the responses, guys!

It was a 'lil baby wolfie

this is the best description he could give me...


reddish-orange head, grey-ish body looked like a "cat's tail" was "bushy or spiky looking" zig-zag swimming like a snake would swim, about 6-8 inches long. seen at night @ Harper's Ferry


any ideas?

omg I saw that too! hahah. I got xmas amazon gift cards and I was like.. "well, what else could I use?? I was like OH! I wonder if they have wrist seals.. wait.. a hood??"

Black skirt, mares x-vision. Lost right along the pier about halfway out. If anyone finds it, please let me know!!!

I second that =P

Yuppp. That's what I have now with the atlas 660's with the liners.. 440's? I love 'em Sadly, from what I gather, northern divers went out of business. I was searching for them before I found my sitech system. This is all very interesting, and I'm actually curious as to why I haven't heard anyone me...

I have the sitech quick system and I LOVE THEM!!! I finally broke and ditched my DIY glove system and went to Seattle UWS last friday and they have them for $129 which is cheaper than ANY online price I have seen. Get to scootin' and pick up a set!! (I think there is only a couple pair left) as spat...

FWIW, my ex has a house on the south side of 90 on Lakeside that she is cool with me and a few guys gearing up and heading out from her dock (she's literally the first house on the right of the bridge) I cant think of a better place for a SI and a few beers. Get at me if you wanna put something toge...

FWIW, I snorkeled here a few years ago before I got my certs. I think I may have seen a spider crab.
