I've only done my 4 certifying dives so far, so I'm a big newbie! lol Oh and I'm in the Tacoma area.

Lol Living is good!pogiguy05 wrote:Welcome NeMEed and you will find a full range of divers here. I myself just got NAUI certified this year and have only 6 dives. I have not been diving since July 21 and really need to go diving. Just keep checking for dive plans and trips these guys are always diving. I just need to get out and dive with them.
I will tell you this when you do dive be ready cause everyone has different hand signals depending on what certification and experience. Just start out slow and if you dont feel comfortable about a dive DO NOT dive. Just be safe and stay alive to dive again.
Welcome NeMEed! You'll find no shortage of Dive Buddies here at NWDC! As others have said, there is a wealth of information, and loads of folks willing to offer advice and opinion. More importantly, there are a whole bunch of people looking to dive, and it doesn't matter how much experience you have, spend some time here and you will gain as much experience as you want. Let's see here now, so far I have met on NWDC, Sounder, Penopolypants, Enigmatic ( Hey where is Matt anyway?) ZenDiver, Bnboly, Calvin, Pinkpadigal, H2ODoctor, Jeff98208, Nailer99, Burntchef, NWBrewer, Decodiver, DiveAddict (Hi Julia!), NWscubamom (at Three Tree and TLC), Tom Nic, Spatman, DiverNick, DiverC, Bubblemaker, RJArnold, and many more Im sure! After awhile you know more people by their Board name than by their real names. So get busy! Get out and Dive, and get out and meet some of these great people!NeMEed wrote:Hi!
