Case, Get used to nobody making any sense or being able to back up anything they say on this list. Most of these "tech divers" haven't been in the water for several years since they took the PADI Deep Diver class to get ready for the Doria. The real truth is most of these "divers" only claim to go to tripple digit depths. The only reason these fat slobs do this is becuase when they are cutting the tables for their 50 foot dive, their fingers are so fat they hit three buttons at a time hence, they claim themselves as tech divers. I keep seeing these idiots on the boat saying "I am planning a dive to 500 today!" A memo to all the tree sloths out there posing as divers. Order your special computer button punching wand from dive rite so you can hit one button at a time. This will allow you to plan your 30 foot reef dives safely and stop you from claiming you went to 300. You can order this by calling Dive Rite directly or online from one of the wonderful ITND trainer, trainer, trainer, trainers. I realize your fingers are too fat to type so just moosh your hand on the keyboard and a special signal will be sent for them to contact you directly. Austin P.S. The dive on the Jap sub yesterday went extremely well. I was able to find some gages with Japanese writing on them. I wasn't able to pry them off though so they are still down there.
