Yeah we will rent BCD's. We don't have travel ones since we don't travel much.

Re: Travel Bag

Thank every one for the replies.
I was thinking it would be best to carry on the computer and regs but wasn't sure. (Computer I defiantly was going to carry on).

GDog -

Re: SPG and Dive computer

the predix is a nearly new model, its functionally the same as a petrel however. So you will typically find the slightly older petrels on sale used but not a used predix. from oldest and cheapest to the latest... predator is the original model, and takes only a lithium battery a petrel 1 is smaller...

Re: SPG and Dive computer

The perdix looks like a really nice computer. If anyone knows of a good used one or an awesome sale point me in that direction!

Anyone know of a shop around the kent auburn area that might have one I could look at?

Thanks

Re: SPG and Dive computer

Well I solely use my Perdix for rec diving. It has a tec setting and rec setting. I like its easy to read, its super reliable, it has a built in compass, I can switch saltwater/freshwater, and being a science nerd I love all the data it records. I know it is capable of doing way more than I need it...

Open water Class

My friend is interested in learning to dive! (new dive buddy!) She lives in the Black Diamond area.
I was wondering if anyone had a shop or instructor they recommended? The shop I went to is gone and so is the shop I was going to recommend she go to :(

Thanks!

Re: Swimmers Ear

Thank you everyone for the reply's. The doctor said she has swimmers ear. ljjames : She described it as pain and fullness. The pain would radiate down her jaw and it would hurt her more to open her mouth. Gdog: Thanks for the tips we will have to try them. We thought about the ear plugs but saw some...
