Northwest Dive Club

grats trev and caroline and baby!

what area will you be in? whats your level of experience?

i ended up moving us down the strand to driftwood, and, other than me getting us slightly lost in a wasteland of mud and clamshells, we had a very nice dive.

hmm how about not tonight, but can you do some other day of the week

Greg, i saw your thread on the dive buddy board, and, while i don't get down to california, north or otherwise, very often, I'd be glad to extend a hearty welcome to these boards, and the standing invitation that if you find yourself on Whidbey Island I'll show you around I understand completely you...

My local shop didn't get any tickets/info on the dog days this year. I know there are several places along the I-5 corridor one can purchase them, however, can one seek entrance on the Saturday morning of the event? Registration begins at 9 am, and everywhere between me and Les Davis, I suspect, wil...

I don't know this fellow, but figured I'd post in case anyone else does.

blaiz would be all over that like white on rice, except that I'll be hitting up dui dog days in hopes of upgrading from a soggy suit to a dry one

I'd be glad to show anyone around some time!

They weren't too bad. I didnt see any lines at all while underwater, although a couple of the boats out trawling sure sounded close. There may have been comments made, but I couldn't hear them with the hood on.

happy birthday dusty!!

Matteo834092148 got in touch with me, and suggested that since he would be in the area Saturday, I could maybe show him Driftwood. He's done Keystone several times, but never Driftwood. I eagerly jumped on the opportunity and we met up right around low tide. There were probably eight or nine fisherm...

very nice dive report guys.
i love the setup you got on that sculpin with the red cuke behind, lynn!
isnt that a scaly lithodid?
and the sparrow is adorable

absolutely! you betcha!

yeah, it seemed we were early. karl got to say i told you so

Yesterday I called the shop to check in with Paul whether he was going diving in the morning, and whether I might tag along. Not only did he have plans, but as I called, Karl walked into the shop after a two month absence! Great timing! We all made plans to meet at Deception Pass State Park to catch...

This made me giggle.

yes, great awesome find!

Thread necropsy from last year, but it still applies!

Happy Birthday Keith!

I'm glad to have met and dived with you this past year!

errr

were those dill or sweet pickles?

cause if theyre sweet pickles, then yes, i totally believe the guys a criminal

Ok... totally lost me... exactly why is "octopi" no longer correct?

im so confused!

I generally agree with you about the 2400=low 3000=mid 3400=high pressure designations, which is, of course, rather arbitrarily assigned. The steel 95s I dive are the mid pressure ones that are indeed thirty years old. (Ross, I haven't dove a low pressure when with you.) 2011_08010042 (Medium).JPG 2...

I still don't own my own tanks, but I regularly dive the shop's mid-pressure 95s. Has the same profile as a steel 72, but with (obviously) more air. A few times I've had the privilege of diving Karl's 119s, and I really like the way it trims on me. If I ever take the step of owning my own tanks, I'd...
