    Do you scuba?

    Just got certified and having an amazing time. Wondering who else here is into it because I would love to arrange dives at future conventions where the geography permits.

    I've been certified for 7 or 8 years now, it's a great sport. I know a few others here dive, would be great to get a webmaster dive going at some of the shows.

              I noticed yesterday that my local shop arranges trips to dive up there frequently. I will definately let you know when I am coming up. I am dry suit equipped and ready to see a sixgill!

                      I have been certified since I was 16 from NASDS back in 1986. I actually moved to the Cayman Islands for 4 years just to dive and work. Great shallow water reefs and awesome wall dives. Great place to see Eagle Rays and Marlin hugging the wall at 130'.

                      I will do the Red Sea one day.

                        Nor Cal. About 90 miles north of Sac. But I'd be up there if there's a good place to dive and dive buddies to go with!

                                    I am planning to come down to do the Farallon Islands cage dives... of course I am one of those that saw "Jaws" at a very impressionable age...

                                        No great whites, plenty or reef sharks, stings and turtles though.

                                                      i've been snorkeling many times, unfortunately never got around to getting certified. i was too young the last time i went to the beach and haven't got around to it yet.

                                                      hopefully i can get a cert when i goto FL this winter, i would love to do some diving around there.

I worked in a dive shop all through college and we did the majority of our dives in FL- a lot at Ginnie Springs and Vortex Springs. Every 3 months we'd charter a bus and go down to the Keys and certify 30 or 40 people at a time. They'd do all their open water dives, night dives, and their deep water dive at the Duane.

I couldn't dive too far down when I wanted to though. How much does cost to get certified? I know there are a few places around here that do it.

I figure it will be great to lose all that when I dive warmer tropical waters but in the mean time it is still amazing fun any way you slice it.

I think our trip was 5 dives and it was from sunup to sundown. they had a cook on the boat and sleeping areas below. Its different then warm water thats for sure, not as much color. the people diving are different also. Off florida and the turks not destroying the reefs and killing the sea creatures was really harped on. When we went off the channel islands, we saw people beating on things with their knives, shooting at anything that moved with spear guns...just a different kind of people or diving, how ever you want to look at it.

I thought I would be all into getting into the spearfishing end (lord knows I love the sushi) but as soon as I swam with the fishes I lost the urge to kill them and now just want to get a camera.

                                                                                                  I am not opposed to grabbing a crab or lobster though when it is legal to do so...
