thanks buddy

lol.. because night dive we could hardly see anyway? or maybe your power is not that high so didn't even notice?

500 per eye.... I guess, I probably thought my mask was fogged up!!

btw, I love nite dives......

1. Pretty much any dive shops. Check the first page for a list of dive shops and their location. It's more important for you to find the perfect mask fit instead.
2. Some people do use this to swim but I find it really uncomfortable to swim with. Prescription goggles aren't that expensive.
3. I would suggest just go with contact lens since your power is 500. There is the risk of losing your specs to the sea and be pretty much blind for the rest of your day/trip unless you always carry a spare. I also hated when I had to switch between specs and masks for me to be able to see clearly on the boat, especially if it's a small boat. Sometimes it can get very busy and messy on a small dive boat and there's no fun protecting your specs from dangers in such situation.

I know plenty who dive with contacts with no issues. imran85 tend to lose his contacts underwater, maybe his eyes too big hahah. In the end, it's a personal preference. I suggest you try with the contacts first, definitely go for dailies and only dailies, use and throw at the end of the day, and if you do not like it, then invest in the prescription mask.

He's not evil, it's compulsory, part of the course for your wife and her sister to be certified.

My instructor made me remove completely and open my eyes underwater too. I've open eyes with and without contacts before. When without contacts, it actually feels pretty good. But with contacts, need to be careful cannot open too big, and it's not very comfortable. Not advisable to open eyes when wearing contacts and also not advisable to do so with or without contacts in swimming pool, heard might get infected.

Thankksssssss

yea maybe need to start using contacts dy, maybe more lengzhai

my dive course is finally confirmed at the end of August! can't wait

and while on the topic of contacts.. i have phobia of contacts and somehow fail very badly and wearing them looks like i have to buck up

MIDE Dive Expo 2018
Date: 4-6 May 2018

Getting early and early. Probably due to Puasa month begin soon...

hi everyone, i would like to know any recommendation on diving mask for snorkeling? budget below rm300 for really good quality.

going to redang this month and thinking to buy a new diving mask.

thanks!

Erm buy diving mask for snokeling? A bit if a waste. Masks are relatively difficult to recommend, you need to go try it in to know if it fits. Go to a few shops and try it out.

RM300 is a pretty good budget. Best is for you to go to dive shops and try it on. Get a snorkel together while you are at it, since you are planning to use it to snorkel.

out of curiosity is EFR something one should only do once or on a renewal basis even if you eventually take rescue diving course just after EFR itself?

EFR is only valid for 2 years. So it depends if you have something you want to use it for again like furthering your diving career than you need to renew it after 2 years.

so just to clarify if i intend to go down the dive master route which is the first path in going pro i still need to take/renew EFR every 2 years otherwise taking it once is fine right? the official site seems to be missing the info im looking for.

If you take your DM within that 2 years period than you dont need to renew it.

i dont like contacts as well. so before your course - either get mask from your dive centre. or buy a mask. quality of your underwater experience will be much better. when i first put on a prescription mask, it was like WHOAAAAAA , what have i been missing out on.

Next dive will be at Koh Tao via Koh Samui. keep u guys posted on the experience. the videos always depict whale sharks, but.. u know la.. the ocean is big and mysterious and very random.

Eh, LYN Scuba Divers dunwan do stickers ka?

btw, anyone have extra ScubaPro second stage for sale?

I also want buy 2nd hand 2nd stage. Octopus.
