Northwest Dive Club

Have you looked at the CLX450? It's what I ended up with a few years ago as a custom build. I got mine entirely of the heavy weight cordura, which they'll do on request, instead of the lighter FLX material on the bottom with a cordura top. It works well in both places -- more rugged than the FLX (a...

Yes Sir! I concur, and some singles tanks, and setup dedicated singles regs.

So a new drysuit is probably in my near future,and a DUI it will be. Let's keep this thread to the DUI suits at hand (I have the opportunity to get a good deal on a DUI, and that decisions already been made). However, what I'm curious about is this: I know some people now who have the CF200 and real...

Jeff and Tom, is your 1330 dive also at TTN?

Well put scott, as always!

Unfortunately I think this is the latest of several things I've heard that seem to indicate the EXPO is heading in the wrong direction.

I'm not working Thursday so I should be able to make it. And somehow TTN is a new-to-me dive site.

Awesome, I think what's going on here is MMM with 3 people who aren't regular MMM goers! See you guys at 330

Sounds good to me!

Yeah sorry Jeremy I'm just not gonna have time for fills and making the drive around which is about 2.5 hours and be outta the water by 11 sorry!

Tides seem favorable for a Monday morning edition at the clay wall. Think my schedule is pretty open. I'd be open but I would need more information. I've done the clay walls once before, and that was with Matt planning the tides. I am open to the idea, what time? If it's too early I may be out on a...

What are some typical splash times? 1600 and 1830?

Well Jeremy lets start the trend! Even if it just ends up being us! We can wait for some regulars to time in before we establish splash times

Isthis happening tomorrow? With Presidents' Day tomorrow I could make it!

I'm gonna be picking up my drysuit sometime this week after getting some wrist seals replaced and wanna testing out before any bigger diving this weekend! Something simple either Redando or Ruston Way Water front! Anyone game?

For divers who are diligent about fresh water rinsing and are active locally I tend to agree with RJ it's over-hyped! However from a different perspective while we consider the NW cold water diving the guys in lake and quarries where it's 38 at the bottom year round and the water is Sans-salt (raisi...

We used H valves for ice diving in Ohio because we were diving shallow and didn't need the gas of doubles! It's easier to roll over and face up to play with bubbles on the ice and what not. In ice diving free flows are very common! Not as necessary in salt water! The thing to remember is that gas in...

http://www.diverite.com/products/catalog/fins/es410 The dive rite exp fins are very nice fins. They're stiffer than the vipers are going to be but lighter than the traditional heavy rubber paddle fin, making them better for travel and warm water. They also seem to be popular in cave country in FL (a...

So beginning this week my work schedule will be reduced which will immediately result in me having every other Thursday off starting February 7, February 21 etc... I got to choose my day and chose Thursday since I know the Thursday South Sound Crew is pretty active! Staring April 15th if Congress do...

Something came up! Won't be there sorry!

where was this last week?

Not at all ... I drive a Chevy Silverado (Marroon) with a big Ohio State Sticker on the back window look for me.

I might be interested in tagging along.

So I'm not really all that familiar with the DSAT algorithm, but based on my limited understanding its going to be more conservative than the modified Bulhman model! Certainly the RGBM is going to be very demanding from a decompression stand point, and I imagine the DSAT would be closer to matching....

So Monday is a federal holiday! Anyone interested in doing a couple of dives in the HC? Or is the normal MMM going to happen? I could actually make the drive around on a holiday!

I'd like it to try it on. It sounds like I'm the right height just too fat, but it doesn't hurt to try it on. PM sent.
