Those of you that are techdivers/rebreather divers and those of you that enjoy reading about tech and/or rebreather diving will find this of interest:

Advanced Diver Magazine publisher/Editor Curt Bowen has purchased RebreatherWorld.com, which is the world's largest online community for rebreather divers.

ADM is the leading print magazine for advanced and technical diving, and a little over a year ago we added "ADM E-Zine", which is a free download electronic publication covering advanced/tech diving. Together, ADM and ADM E-Zine cover advanced techniques and events in deep diving, wall diving, cave diving, underwater photography, decompression theory, wreck diving, both OCR and CCR techniques, and anthing else that fits within the definition of "advanced" diving around the world. With the purchase of RBW, an active on-line "community", new horizons are opening up for ADM and our readers.

Right now we're all just stumbling around wondering where this will all take us, but it's going to be an exciting ride! I hope that many of you here on NWDC will choose to join in and have some fun with us as we head off into yet another new venue!

John

Sounds like a new and exciting adventure. rebreathers are the wave of the future for the tech field, it sounds like a natural marriage of knowledge and resources.

Best of luck

My guess is that it will be more of the magazine changing the website.

Loved the latest issue by the way - great reads, fantastic pics, and I'm NOT a tech diver!

I loved the Article on the B-29 since I plan on diving it soon. I have an advantage, my brother lives in Vegas. Gives me a reason to go visit him more often. $300 is a little spendi for one dive but it's the only way to dive it. Great magazine. I wish there was a little bit more on OC diving. :book: :hello2: :hello2: :hello2:

We try to have at least 50% of each issue OC.

Congratulations!

I really loved the article in the new e-zine on North Shore diving on Maui. My husband looked into that for his last trip, but decided to hold off until he could do it with a known buddy (me!) Nice to read about somebody who has actually gone out with them.
