Northwest Dive Club

As the brand manager for Cressi, I have been tasked with the production of several short clips for YouTube. I am looking for someone who has an HD Video Camera and capability to edit videos....while accepting direction from the final end recipient. (That would be me) If you're CREATIVE...that's a hu...

YAY!!!!! That is the BEST news all morning!!!!!!

(Now to revamp my slide presentation for the dive show...what a happy revision!!)

As one who is now beyond really caring about controversy...and the west coast brand manager for Cressi... I'll take this opportunity to announce we'll be doing a Spearfishing Seminar at the NW Dive and Travel show this year. It's sponsored by Cressi...and yes....we have guns! Cressi sponsors the Wor...

The "new" status...this is a job which possibly involves entanglement (the bottom of the Lake is a trash heap)...solo diving at all times...so it's not recreational by any means. Picture getting entangled in random stuff, while having raw sewage blasting into your face and finding the solu...

So...this is a close friend of mine who has a diving job open. Ignore the "navy background"...what he needs is someone who can do light commercial work underwater and keep their head straight. This is working on the houseboats on Lake Union. Looking for someone with some knowledge of const...

Just wondering if anyone has dived the Jetty since the dredging? I know what the beach looks like...but wanting to find out if anyone knows how much the dredging affected the underwater scenery.

In reading the discussion here...I have to say...kudos to everyone for thoughtful questions and answers. I think this particular thread is the epitome of what a perfect forum would be with the best of the experienced instructors in the Northwest mentoring the newest avid divers around. Wow... I real...

I'll be down there the week of the 27th...going to try to get reservations for that Wednesday at Pt. Lobos. If I can't do that, I'll probably just dive Breakwater in Monterey. I have used Glenn's Aquarius every time I'm there...but may visit Seven Seas this time, as their new shop looks stellar. If ...

Um...I have PROOF about the ScottSax relationship with She-P....

Relax...like a rag doll. When you're tense or nervous...you are more buoyant. (This is why new divers take weight off of their belt so quickly) If you relax like a rag doll, you'll descend if you're properly weighted. The problem tends to be...the diver worries about whether they can descend (especi...

Friday nights are rare for me...but this Friday night, I'm excited to be able to attend the Grand Opening of the Flashback Scuba Museum, which occupies the upper floor of Tacoma Scuba. It's from 5:00-9:00...and anyone who wants to see some old stuff, old films and old people (umm..Randy?) should go....

There's the remains of the old rollerskating rink as well (at least that's the story we got...) I dove BG lake in the summer a few summers ago...thermocline was pretty intense. I kinda think that was my first freshwater dive...

Nice job!!

They've always answered the phone when I call...

Anyone is welcome to join this dive HOWEVER...this is normally posted in areas where we can get a count of who's going. If you'd like to come and join us, please RSVP through either our email or the Meetup site...as we provide refreshments and like to not be caught unaware.

Thanks!

As most of you know...I'm an instructor. It's what I do. I LOVE Instruction. I've always said that I "like" diving, but I'm an instructor first. Now...once in awhile...I have a moment of lust come along during a dive...but usually...it's watching the students "get it" that keeps ...

I agree. I feel lucky to have Ocean Optical in the area so there is a "big boys" toy store close by. I've scoped out the DEMA floor and will be hitting the vendors next week. I'm also looking at a few ways to bring the education piece in with a more complete approach than a simple "UW...

Thanks so much! The advice is what I thought it would be. Just wanted to make sure I was on the right page. I DO have to look at dealer minimums. So that may be a factor with whether I bring in Sealife or Sea and Sea. I've heard rumors that I'm "funded"...but I haven't found out who my ben...

Ok, so as most of you know, I recently took the plunge into opening 4 walls. And there are things I want to "do"...and stuff I "don't". One of the areas I want to bring into the store is Underwater photo and video. But not to the tune of millions of dollars...as the money tree is...

Hey there...so here's one of the press writeups for World Ocean Day...TOMORROW. http://www.highlinetimes.com/2011/06/02/news/world-oceans-day-celebration-highline-community-c Having the local dive community support these efforts says alot to the City officials when they make decisions regarding dive...

A big THANK YOU to Cody McLung and his friend (firefighters) who have stepped up to the plate to make the World Ocean Day a success for the kids. This was the crucial missing link for the evenings festivities.

Having just returned from the "Warm Water Divers Mecca" in Colorado (yes...more certified divers there per capita than anywhere outside of Florida) I learned a lot. Warm water fins. If you can find warm water fins with an open heel (still lightweight but fully adjustable) then you have the...

At GirlDiver, we are proud to pair up with the Highline MaST Center and Parents magazine to celebrate World Ocean Day on Wednesday, June 8th at the MaST Center at Redondo. The theme for World Ocean Day this year is "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" and we have a celebrity...Rob Tob...

Hey hey my friend!! Good to have you on the board and see you getting back to diving for fun.

Perhaps I'll take you up on a dive sometime...when/if my dive schedule clears to have a relaxed, out with friends dive day. (It's gotta happen sometime, eh?)

Welcome!

My prayers go out to this diver and his family. I've dived with him and he's a super nice guy.

If I were a rock climber, I may not want to "free climb" myself...but I also would never want to hear a "free climber" got hurt.

Quick recovery wishes...

Um...can I just say WOW!! I don't hit the board often enough...and had no idea we had such an amazing photoguy in our midst.

Very nice! And I like the site.
