Subject: DIR demo in SoCal
Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 10:49:50 -0800
In keeping with his new image :-), and also in keeping with his new desire
to expand and dive with other diver's, I have just confirmed with George
Irvine that he will be in SoCal the weekend after DEMA.  He will be
available on Saturday night 1/22 for a Q & A session and then we will dive
on Sunday 1/23.

The gameplan is to have the Q & A on the Great Escape www.diveboat.com on
Sat. evening.  There will be no charge for this demo and session.  For those
who want to dive with us on Sunday,  the boat will leave San Pedro at 6:00
am, but everyone is invited to sleep on the boat.  Depending on conditions
we will dive Farnsworth Bank as the 1st sight, if conditions are right we
may stay there for 2 dives.  we should get in 4 dives that day, again
depending on available BT and conditions.  For those unfamiliar with
Farnsworth bank it is considered an advanced dive site.  It's a pinnacle
that sits on the backside of Catalina Isalnd.  It starts at 66' and goes
down into the abyss.  Many of us will be diving trimix, but there will be
plenty of recreational diver's on the trip.

So if you are in the SoCal area and want to take George up on his offer to
demonstrate first hand DIR techniques you are invited.

If you are coming in from out of town, ( ie DEMA, or any where else ) I have
spoken with Tim, the Capt., and he has confirmed that all are allowed to
sleep on the boat Sat & Sun night at no charge, therefore no need to rent a
hotel room.

Furthermore,  my friend Ken Kurtis of Reef Seeker's, has the boat chartered
for that Saturday ( 1/22)  so if you want to make a weekend out of it, it
makes alot of sense.  His trip will be leaving Fri. evening and we will be
diving Santa Barbara Island.

As of right now the following NG regulars are on the trip:

Jammer
OTDB  ( Barbara )
John Walker
Scott
Jason O'Rourke
Miranda
Tleemay
stb@pr*.ne* ( Troy )
Mathew Endo

Let me know if you are interested.

Since many of you already know that I was a bigtime DIR *antagonist* ( as
Volker call's me :-) ) until I actually dove with Dan & George.  It is much
simpler to understand when it is explained by Dan and George.  You learn
more in one day of diving than you can in 100 internet posts.

Contact me if you are interested to join us.

Later
