Dive Report from Friday the 13th

Hi Everyone,

I did my first dive of 2006 on Friday January 13th. I did about half
an hour underwater. I was interviewed by a local paper in Stillwater,
the town I do my dives in. It looks like we have the weight issue
figured out pretty well now. My 5lb ankle weights worked well to keep
my legs down. The OMS rig and harness system I got worked well. I
was actually sitting upright in the water, I liked that alot. I can't
wait for the next dive. Also heres a link to one picture of that
dive... http://matt55125.tripod.com/scuba/

Take care everyone.
Matt

Great stuff Matt.
I haven't managed a dive yet this year!
Looks like things are coming along quite nicely. You look really comfortable in the water!
Cheers!

You are looking pretty technical now Matt!! Glad to hear the weights are better and that you are finding a comfortable position. That will help when you get to the lake.
Hope you had a great birthday!

Thanks everyone for the great words like always, Yeah I'm feeling pretty comfortable in the water these days. Yeah I'm starting to look pretty hi-tech I'll agree with you there too! I can't wait for the OW dive. So far my dive total is 3 hours and 40 minutes for 2005.

Take care and safe diving my European friends.
Matt
