Is that Sigourney weaver?

yeah it is funny. He lives somewhere he can dive every day, he dives about 100 times more than most of us. I reckon he's laughing his tits off!!
:p

Ok someone tell the joke, is his right shoulder D-ring a bit low or something

I think the title should read, "How Wrong Can It Be Done"!

Maybe its just me, but I've always been a believer that a good system stands on its own merits. It doesnt need to rubbish others.

Sorry Rick, but I despise this sort of thing. We're all in this to have fun/explore (a small proportion).

I guess this is why I'll never be DIR, I dont subscribe to this school of thought.

No offence to yourself though, ya web footed jockanese git

PS. Anyone remember the frogkick.nl DIW parade.... they put a picture of rick stanton up there once (it might even still be there!)

No really, that's funny.

That would have been funny when I was doing my Open Water.

Are those canvas gardening gloves??

Zak, remember this is a DIR board mate, and the picture of Axel is clearly not DIR therefore open to ridicule, mockery and jest! :D (Only kidding)

I mean, even if you rotated that pic 90 deg CW he'd still be violating almost every detail of the DIR system!

If it's fair to mock GI3 about his speedo's then Axel is fair game IMO...I'm sure he'd pick plenty of details on my pic if I were imfamous!

This is the guy who does mock ninja moves on deco on the "Get Wrecked" DVD on the Zenobia IIRC.

Infact; on that very DVD they nearly get lost in the Z and he cuts the line he's laid to OW for no apparent reason!

DIR aside, anyone who dives in the ocean with a white boiler suit and no fins(*) has got to expect at least a few WTF type comments

(*) the picture doesn't go low enough to show but I seem to remember this is the same guy who prefers to do a spiderman impression around a wreck than swim.
