I know this is some sort of dark board necromancy action right here but we all know SCUBA is the bomb dot com so what gives?
I am wanting to get back into diving and am about a click away from investing in my own first set of tech/rec gear. Wanting to get the Hollis SMS75 cause it can be configured for Sidemount, Back Singles, and Back Doubles. Leaves me a lot of room to adjust if I only want singles for some warm water resort style dive but also letting me go sidemount for some underwater urban exploration.
1. Hollis SMS75 integrated harness and wing front
2. The Cave Adventurers package I'm about to throw down for
3. 2x HOG D3 enviro sealed 1st stages
4. 2x HOG Zenith 2nd stages
5. Back view of the SMS75 with grommets for banded twins and slots to mount single
Just moved to San Diego and am probably going to sign up for a Nitrox course and Wreck. What do y'all think? Ideally I could take all the PADI specialty courses but I am also on a budget so for you Divemasters out there, which courses benefited you the most?
Last UE I heard involving SCUBA was Therrin (rest his UE account's soul) in a mine. Anyone done anything else, even wrecks lately or any sort of semi-professional modern archaeology?
6. Shipwrecks don't always have to be overhead space dives
7. Setting a survey grid?
8. Synthesizing the data into something useful. What I would give to make this my profession one day
So yeah, anyone have suggestions on gear or do anything remotely related to surveying either in the water or on land explorations?
