schleckschling 0 #96 July 3, 2006 Hi, I'm also a SCUBA diver. I'm diving since the age of 14. I'm a certified PADI Rescue Diver with about 550 dives. About 400 in the Lake Constance (Germany) and the rest in cold mountain lakes in Austria. I've never been diving in the sea This year I got my skydiving license. I would be very happy if my skydiving skills were as good as my SCUBA diving skills Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jib 0 #97 July 3, 2006 When you have a lot of experience (the conditions can be bad), check out the Flower Gardens, a coral reef, on the M/V Fling(?) and its sister-ship. It's 2-3+ day trip out about 100 miles from a port (forgot name) about an hour from Houston.) Leave at midnight, wake up there, dive, after the night dive come closer and dive a much less interesting site and/or an oil rig. Chance to see a whale shark. -------------------------------------------------- the depth of his depravity sickens me. -- Jerry Falwell, People v.

sunnydee123 0 #98 July 3, 2006 Hey gang....I don't play on the forums much anymore but saw this one today. I got certified the end of March and have TRIED to put together a dive with some of my classmates since then but nothing comes together. I need to get in the water before I forget it all and some calm lake/river might be fun. Last check out dive in the ocean was in 7 - 10 foot seas and not a great experience (once we were done and back on the boat ) but I need someone/people who will be patient because I will be a total "follow the steps" I'm sure.....safety first ya know. Let me know or PM and we'll exchange numbers. I want to go diving Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingJ 0 #99 July 3, 2006 QuoteI need to get in the water before I forget it all and some calm lake/river might be fun. I've done a fair amount of diving in the springs in the Crystal River and central Florida area. That would be a great option for some very relaxed diving. Most of them are great places to go with people that aren't divers also - other things to do like mountain biking, kayaking, etc. PM me if you think you might go that route and want some advice on specific places or dive shops that cater to that area.Killing threads since 2004.
