I got a set and so far like them I had, still have, my Aqualung but at 100' they were too hard to breathe. I got the Hog in an attempt to get rid of this issue but so fat I fing them even easier to breathe in shallower water too.

If you have an AL reg that's hard to breathe at 100' you need to have it serviced.

Look at Cerichs Avatar...that was ice diving with me. :) Damn near had to throw him in.....his warm water, old Canadian self, didn't want to do it ;) Then he had a failure out of the Hollis reg I made him dive with :partyman:
We keep it lite, and most of us actually know each other in person. You should join us on our next club dive. Chicago-Seattle can't be too bad $$ and time wise. Stay a few days and I'm sure we can find you a buddy and tanks/gas for the duration. Oh and Cerich this goes for you too :)

You and Cerich should come to MMM and set a new long distance attendee record! as far as I know the current record is someone who came up from Portland. We could even have an offical "HOGathon" MMM. :supz:

It does confuse me when someone is willing to drive 4 hours past some great dive sites to dive the T-dock.... Flying in would be a new one...

Just goes to show you, as Joe Talavera taught us, that a significant and important part of diving is social . . .

what confuses me is why we keep doing it almost every week :nutty:

it makes me think we're like the two old guys on the muppet show in the balcony that always knock the show, but for some crazy reason they keep showing up week after week...

but like Lynn says, part of it has to be :partyman: :taco: ahem, social. Speaking of which, where's Fishstiq anyway?
