Wanted Cave2 buddy

A-M · January 31st, 2007, 07:00 PM

Unfortunately our cave2 buddy canceled for the course (April 9-13) in Mexico. So now Roel and I are looking for a cave2 buddy.
If you're interested to join, please send me a pm. We are leaving on April 2nd already so that means we can do some fun dives before the course starts to get the team going

Dang it, can you wait a few months. I need a few more dives before I tackle this one.

Sorry, we already booked and paid the course: April 9 to 13.
And the flights are also paid. We'll be there from 2nd until 20th so some 'spare time' for some 'training' dives

Anyone feeling sorry for us and ready to join?

Richard,
if you can make it on April 2nd I'm sure we can fit in those 25 dives if we do some night dives extra

Too bad, it would have been nice to do it together but the experience you build in between by fun dives is really priceless! (this mans I am volunteering for the trip in May

)

As much as I hate work, I do have to raise the cash for MX trips somehow!

There are a couple of us lined up for May. A mix of Cave1 and Cave2, so you might have a chance to use your new skills too!

Love to have A-M, we'll keep you in the loop. Anyone else interested in May 21 through 28?

rjack, I know you did your cave 1 in Mexico. Just curious, don't you think some high flow experience should be gained while in training (or are there high flow caves in Mexico)?

Have fun with the class guys.

No, I've no high flow cave experience. Its so flat in MX, it seems impossible to have much flow. Could be wrong on this.

But I do have scards of high current experience here locally! Let me tell ya I have limited desire to willingly subject myself to that!

PM me your email and I'll send you me trip report (a word doc)
