I also accept visa, mastercard, and bananas...
That's the cheapest local source i found it for... The shop is a 2 hour drive away! So nope not driving there laugh.gif

Was that the original storm or the smaller "windstorm" that you bought for rm20?
*
Bananas will do!

I think it was the original. There was only one type sold here in MIDE. We tested it out uw when we were in perhentian last year but also not that loud. I forgotten was it loud enough on the surface haha. Will check again during MIDE this year.

A friend offred me ik1f I can get 7 people group, mine will be free... haha. Im in day 2 owd today, 1 on 1. Cost about 1k at the backyard of my hometown. Thinking of doing advance tomorrow if possible, since Im still on leave till next monday. You get what you pay, but most importantly your license.. fun can come later.. first experience  just too much to handle for some..
*
I would like to point out that first experience if very important. A lot of ppl who did not have a good first experience will most likely not continue diving after that.

Also, the basics of scuba diving is very important. We need a good mentor to teach us properly. Not one that cin cai let you pass or don't correct you when needed to, especially in bigger group. 1 instructor to a 2-3 students is still okay. Anything more than that, I wouldn't really recommend.

Yeah I did read about MIDE this month end. Was thinking of trying to get the Open Water Diver this year if I can because am thinking of going for a Lombok-Komodo sailing trip next year and trying to squeeze in some dives there if possible.
*
Yes go check out MIDE for good deals and see what the dive centers can work out for you. East coast islands is the best place to learn, nearest to KL but take note of the monsoon seasons. It's already middle of the year now. MIDE packages usually last a year from the time you get it.

And please please don't go to komodo if you are a newbie.

QUOTE(KiraTomaru @ Jul 19 2016, 03:38 PM)
well...a year has 52 weeks if you pull 4 dives a day on say every weekend i suppose 208 isnt so far fetched but isnt that a bit difficult for people far from the sea and like stay in the city center i.e Klang Valley?
*
Mabul/Sipadan one trip with unlimited house reef dives can log about 12-15 dives. If you semangat, 1 day 7 dives can do also.

Min 60 log dives a year is about average 1 dive trip each month. Unless you're the super lepak type do maybe 2-3 dives a trip haha.

So i think i should register on friday night, the counter should be less crowded compared to Saturday biggrin.gif

Err MIDE closes at 7pm. The counter won't be open on Friday night.

You need to register on the day before you enter. Bring your own pen and fill up while queueing. It can be quite crowded during registration.

I would say Saturday and Sunday go earlier. If after 12 noon then sure very long queue already.

but the online registration is already closed i believe. If not, admission is RM4 but you'll get RM5 voucher. biggrin.gif

Yup. Registration online closed few days ago I think. Pre-buy in advance next year.

There will be a special queue for online registration. Which is much faster and less ppl.

Oh and the RM5 voucher a lot of shops won't accept one. Hahah.

i found that earlier but the depth ratings seem a bit shallow for my liking like about 10m compared to ikelite which has a rating of 60m,since the higher the rating the less likely it will flood
if i cant find one i guess rental cams it is  sad.gif
laugh.gif
*
Honestly, you don't need an ikelite, like almost at all.

Just ask around how often leisure divers go beyond 30-40m. Don't talk about deep divers and technical divers first la.

i dont understand what's wrong with new divers these days... dont even know how to dive but already want to take photo....

you are not only endangering yourself but you are also endangering the livelihood underwater....

seriously the most ridiculous thing i saw so far was an idiot using his gopro while doing his OWD.... really??? wtf??? and what's up with DI for allowing it???

pfftt.... period....

Hehehehehe. Please say hi if you see me. I'm bad with recognizing faces. Haha. laugh.gif

QUOTE(KiraTomaru @ Jul 27 2016, 01:36 PM)
oh no,thats not what i meant. what im trying to put out here is 10m as a rating feels a little teetering on the brink of possible failure compared to a rating of 60m despite me not actually going that deep,of course if there was something around the rating range of 30m,id go for that.

just a little creature comfort and the fact that im putting a camera underwater where its not supposed to be,plus these things dont grow on trees... sweat.gif
*
Well, if I'm not mistaken, your camera is quite the matured already. Maybe it's time to get a new camera?

Like an action cam maybe. Or one of those waterproof cameras, which allows up to >10m I'm sure.
