QUOTE(munkeyflo @ Dec 15 2015, 05:43 PM) Yea lor. Do like recent perhentian trip, go there meet up and dive. Just set dates and dive center, accommodation all on own, up to our own comfort level yea... our dorm room was ok, just for sleeping at night the open-air sea-facing public bathing - now that was a new experience

just sent my reg for service for 2nd time this year - free-flowing from second stage - air leaking on inhale and exhale. irritating and would prob affect air useage.
better to be safe and that everything works properly, salt-water erodes pretty quickly

QUOTE(jay5840 @ Jan 20 2016, 05:28 PM) NAUI? what the differrent between PADI & NAUI? PADI Pay and Dive Immediately they're all dive agencies providing certification. it doesnt really matter which agency. it's the instructor who matters more. A good instructor will ensure you have a good experience and sufficient knowledge to enjoy your diving.

QUOTE(KHOdin @ Jan 26 2016, 01:54 PM) hi guys,Im going to take my PADI Open water certification at Tioman during the end of March. The dive center is offering some package which include mask,snorkel and fins. But im planning to get only the mask and snorkel. does the purge valve system on snorkels make a big difference ? or is okay to go with basic snorkel without purge valve system ? as the others have mentioned, we dont use snorkel. there's already so many things around the face area, and i used to get confused which is which. e.g. snorkel vs inflator hose. mine is always in the bag. yellowed from under-use!

just back from Weh yesterday, disappointing. currents, viz not so good, coral damage looks severe, pelagics missing on my dives, though other divers spotted Napoleon wrasse, devil rays, manta, hammerhead

QUOTE(Ji3MOON @ Mar 16 2016, 01:03 PM) Alamak..really bro? I'm going there on May.. i think it's luck and timing - this was new moon, so tides should be up and up. My friend went in Feb, it was good. Weh water temperature - minimum 23 degrees !!! AND I LEFT MY WETSUIT IN MALAYSIA. felt so macho. but the body got used to it i guess. This post has been edited by ericcc: Mar 17 2016, 05:36 PM

QUOTE(wildan03 @ Mar 22 2016, 02:27 PM) Waa, same date, different place. Anyways does seamonkey provide all-in package for Open Water Course? How much?  they're on the pricier side, their OW is 1200, lodging maybe another 600; this is Redang of course. check their website, pricing should be there.

QUOTE(wildan03 @ Mar 20 2016, 03:39 PM) Guys, i have a question. I wanna take a 4d3n diving course in Perhentian, but on the last day i plan to buy plane ticket back to KL at night, maybe around 9pm. Is it alright for me to take a plane because some says i might suffer from decompression? Flight would only take about 1 hour so am i gonna be alright? I dont have any other option, returning to KL by flight is my only choice. Before, i went for a DSD ( 2 dives, max depth is 13m+) and i took a flight back the next day just less than 18 hours after my dive and i don't feel anything during the flight. Please advise! Dont play play with the no-fly time. 18 hours minimum, 24 hours to be safe. my dive computer only lets me fly after 23 hours after multiple dives. i heard some ppl who fly the next morning, get nose bleeds. there's a lot of factors like physiology, health, whether you have thin blood vessel lining, etc latest research usually points to shorter no-fly times, but our computers and manuals will be conservative, and that is good.
