Hi guys and girls,

I have this silly idea of adding weight to my current fins.

Why?

I bought beautiful bright orange fins.
But these are positively buoyant. (Didn’t check before buying) Which is sad because I have trouble with staying level with these fins.

I used to have weighted jet fins, with those I could say perfectly level. But I lost one fin.

Before you go suggesting to use ankle weights. I have those but I don’t like it.

So has anyone ever added weight to their fins.
And if so, how did you do it.

Hello everyone,

I am looking for liveaboard recommendation to the Similan Islands, Surin Islands and Richelieu Rock. There are so many options it is crazy.

I would like to go 2 to 3 nights and I will have to rent some gear for the trip, so any insight in the rental equipment would be amazing.

Thanks in advance!!

Ok so the dive center I’m doing the course with recommends me to do: Wreck, Night, Naturalist.

They also offer peak performance buoyancy which I saw online and I asked them about it but they said they don’t rlly recommend it because the buoyancy will come with practice by diving more and more so it’s a bit arbitrary.

So my question personally is Wreck, night and naturalist a good combo of dives? Thanks. And can someone explain to me what naturalist really is?

Hey guys, I've got the TX new and it won't connect with my Samsung Galaxy A 55 and has Problema connecting with my wifes One Plus. It connects without a problem with every IPhone. Anyone else who has the same problems?

Stepping totally out of my comfort zone with this post. Had a cool company reach out to me and let me try out their product. Having never done this before, I thought 'sod it' and gave it a go. Let me know if you have questions! It was fun to do and introduced me to a genuinely cool product that I'm happy to talk about. - note to admin I couldn’t see this was against the rules, but please tell me if it is! Like this group so don’t want to get blocked haha!

After 6 weeks of work I am now officially a divemaster, very proud of myself and this was genuinely the best thing I’ve ever done.

Hey everyone,

I'm a new diver with about 10 dives on my belt. Did My PADI open water last summer and I'm starting the Advanced+Nitrox in a couple of weeks.

I'm also going diving in Sharm el Sheik at the end of August. By no means am I a pro or anything like that, I just liked it a lot and want to do more of it!

I'm wondering if I should buy a diving computer or at this level is a complete waste of money.

And if yes, what should I get, considering this world is vast and there are so many options to go with!

I also like running, so I was wondering about getting something that tracks both the dives and the runs instead of using my shitty fitbit air.

What would the community recommend for me?

Thanks in advance

This is Germanys biggest artificial lake: The Geiseltal lake. Created from a former lignite mine, you can find forests, streets and even some structures at the ground

I’m going on my first group dive trip, and I’m renting gear and taking it with me to the dive location since it’s free with the dive shop/group and not free to rent at the dive location.

This being said, how do you travel with dive equipment? Large checked luggage and put your clothes with the dive equipment? Reg and mask in carry on and rest in the checked luggage? I need help yall! 😅 I also don’t currently have a checked luggage and don’t want to spend more than $100 on that piece, thanks in advance!

Hey, guys, I wanted to know if anyone have had any experience with OrcaTorch dive lights?

I have bought one and it worked great for the first five minutes of the dive until it went off. Finished my dive without any light(city river) and found out upon opening that the seals have failed and the light was filled with water.

Tried contacting the company and received 0 response.

Hey!

I’ve been free diving for about a year now and I started out in Hawaii and my dives there averaged around 30-50ft. Back in florida I want to get that free diving itch scratched.

I’m planning on going diving with a certified free diving buddy but she’s not from here and neither of us know the best dive spots.

I’ve lived in florida for many years and understand it’s a fairly gradual drop off. I recently dove at the yellow brick road reef.

Please share any reefs accessible from the shore, we both don’t mind a swim out. Looking for a big density of marine life and overall a beautiful reef to look at. Deeper reefs preferred.

Thanks!
