Any leisure/pro divers here?
I got my open water cert in 99 iirc, and soon after my wife got hers as well. Family and career meant that we had less and less time for this pursuit, and now our wetsuits are just lying dormant, packed away in a box. Our booties have rotted away, and masks are yellow with age.



Any other divers here? Current or "retired"? Leisure or from our navy?

Well bro it gets harder with age and other time commitments I guess. It is quite fun, and it literally allows us to explore another dimension of places/countries we visit. Do it man!!! And take some photos with your divers' while at it :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: (you'll love orange dials after that!)

Lol counted counted... Lidat called skin diver rite :mrgreen: i'm in no way an avid diver, but I think the experience is worth a try this lifetime lah... Other than maybe wetsuit, mask and booties, everything else can be rented. In my limited experience, cheaper than golf :lol: we got the correct watches oredy!

I went with an independent instructor last time, and certification was from PADI. Not so current with the scene anymore, but one of my friend is still active. I'll pm you his mobile.

Im at advanced open water level with 70 dives. 8-)

And yes, I wear specs. Those arent goggles with degrees though, I have been wearing contact lens right from the start, almost every 4-eyed diver I know does the same thing.
