Small Questions Thread

i'm not quite as bad as sludge, but I have 9 sets of regulators, 6 pairs of backgas tanks, 3 aluminum bottles, a dive trailer *not built yet, but coming soon, do own it though*. Thankfully nothing was ever paid for at retail prices, so it's not that terrifying. One of the interesting things talking to some of my friends that own dive shops that don't cater to technical divers is that they say we are a very small crowd, but we have the most expensive gear, and more of it than anyone else, but we are all too damn cheap to actually pay retail for anything they could ever make money on, so they can't afford to cater to the technical crowed.

Geeze Russell, I thought I was bad
I only have 29 tanks, and 24 regulators (none of them are clear).

Do you remember their names?

Do you remember their names?

The tanks, or the regs?

Russell, I know you folks from Georgia do things different, but in Florida we use T or K bottles for a cascade system, not a metric ass load of scuba cylinders.

I thought the metric unit was #### tonne?

Looking back, cave diving is cheap. My trips to Florida and mexico (2-2.5 weeks) are cheaper than 1-week trips to fishy/salty locations.

Just did MX for 19 days, 15 days of "guiding" for 3000 cad.
Curacao diving is about to cost me $750cad for 5 days not including nitrox. FML.

Here's a small question, where does everyone do there 20' stop in Twin? It was my first time in Twin Saturday, I went to the Training Room jump and swam a few hundred feet so I only had 8 mins deco and didn't see a great spot so I ended up hovering near the entrance by a piece of wood on the floor and next to some graffiti.

Depending on the pond level, that is about your only choice.

around there. right by the entrance. You can "cheat" a bit and get up by one of the air pockets and get up towards the ceiling there to get out of the way. We usually stay on the left side when coming out on the off chance someone else is coming up
