Kick wrongly, unable to maintain at 5m for 3 mins, unable to hovering and so on.
*
Hmm, most newbies are unable to do that. I myself took quite some time to be able to hover properly during safety stop for 3 minutes.
A strict instructor is good but if he/she is showing anger towards the students, I don't think that's very appropriate. Unless the student is being really unreasonable and stubborn la. Teaching need lots of patience as each of us will learn and adapt at a different pace.

Anyways, let it be, diving is fun but can be dangerous so we still need to practice safety and dive within our limits. Congrats on your certifications! rclxms.gif

Yes, is valid. but sometimes is not so easy to do.
Normally what i hear is go there, paid the money and get the license. that all. so easy.
After experience it, is not so easy... to complete in 4 days.
*
Which is why most of us suggest that you all do theory and confine water in the city first before going to the island to finish up everything in 4 days. smile.gif
At least the theory part is already done and you have some experience breathing underwater in the pool before getting dump into the sea.

When are you getting your AOW?

I've got 2 wetsuits to sell, maybe 1 or 2 booties, 1 pair of atomic split fins (hardly used), and a Tusa BCD. Plus a transparent mask.

QUOTE(angelgemini @ Aug 14 2013, 03:54 PM)
No pool at Perhentian island, so all confine water do at sea with wave,... really killing when starting time.

First day, all theory.
2nd day, Morning Confine water 1&2 & Float 10 mins, Noon Open water 1, Evening theory
3nd day, Morning Confine water 3 & Snookering 300m, Noon Confine water 4&5 & Open water 2, Evening Theory & Exam
4th day, Morning Open water 3 and noon open water 4.

The schedule really killing
*
Yea, that's why very tiring. Haha. If you've done theory and confined water in the city, your schedule will most probably be:

Day 1 - Arrive island, check in, chill, OW dive 1, chill, eat, sleep.
Day 2 - OW dive 2, 3 and 4, chill, eat, party, sleep.
Day 3 - Hangover, pack things, go back to reality.

all confine water is in sea water, need to take boat out to sea for it.

elearning very expensive. need to paid extra rm300.
Yes lo, never know about it before hand.
*
Some hotels have swimming pool so they do confine sessions in their pool instead of the sea, which is much better for the students.

How much did you pay for the whole OW course + accommodation?

When I did my OW, I didn't have to swim. I sat in the sampan boat waiting for juniorkirk to finish swimming. Kekekeke.
I still remember my instructor was talking to me about nitrogen narcosis, she ask me whether I have drank alcohol before and then she say it's like when you are high after drinking alcohol. Lol. laugh.gif

Just tried the quiksilver rashguard in the pool.

It fitted nicely, although I probably need bigger muscles to prevent it from creasing laugh.gif I'm glad that it wasn't itchy or anything while wearing it. I found it annyoing when the bottom of the rashguard flaps out, so I prefer it to be tucked in. It dried very quickly, which is good since residual water in a wetsuit makes me cold on the boat. It's easy to put on, but removing it is difficult when it is wet - more difficult than removing a wetsuit.
*
Wahhh change avatar also. kekekeke...

I love rashguards that dry quickly. Yea, it's quite hard to remove when wet. You need to put on some weight!

Ehhh, better get your will done up before you go diving!

Anything can happen when diving, so just be safe and dive within your limits and it'll be okay. wink.gif
Rental equipments depends on the dive center. Whether they service it regularly, take good care of it, clean it properly or not. Not all dive centers are as responsible as you think they are. And you always have to sign that liability form whenever you dive with any dive center.

Then there is the part where some are completely grossed out by it - finding maggie mee in the rental regulator mouth piece. laugh.gif
