    That is crazy. He....Named is doing himself harm as he will get a reputation of being a malicious jerk and ruin his business. Good for the OH shop diver to speak up about full confidence when diving with you.

    Got my solo diving certification yesterday. Yes, I am certified to dive alone.

    HUGE confidence builder. There was even a 200ft long no mask swim following a line. Much more fun than it looked (I went second).

    You have to be a experienced diver to even take the class. You have to prove you have minimum 100 dives. I have around 315.

    Yes, it has, hasn’t? Thank you. Took four years and approximately 315 dives.

OH dive shop owner told He Who Shall Not Be Named to pound sand, that he's actually dived with me multiple times, he's never seen anything in my diving to give him concern, and to mind his own business!
    Way to go, Tradd!!
