6 October 1999. While night diving there is a lot of thing to think about. I did this night dive in Norway on a dive trip, and I learned a lot doing it. We jumped into the water from the jetty at the irand we lived on and went down to the depth of 18 meters. The sight was around 10 meters when the torch was used, and it was 13 degrees in the water and 12 in the air. I was reallt nervous during this dive, not used to night diving. We swimmed over some sea vegetalbes and stuff I never saw, it touc...

6 October 1999. I choose to blog this dive as a educational dive because I learned a lot doing it. It sais "idiot dive" in my log book. And so it was. As you can see in my earlier blogs I have been in this dive site before. The Lagoon is beautiful! But... I got a new buddy to dive with, we had never been diving together before. The bottom was 150 meters below us, so we had to be really careful and precise with how we howered. I did it really bad and got stressed. In the end of the dive I also ch...

5 October 1999. Just very close to the irland we lived on there was a great diving site with a wreck named "Torp." We went out with the roawing boat we had this week, and went down under the water. We were told that the wreck was on the depth of 20 meters, but hey what wrong that was! We found it at the depth of 30 meters. The sight was beautiful 15 -20 meters, and the wreck had the length of 20 meters. It is a cago-ship. We could actually the whole wreck at once! She is sleeping there on the bo...

19 September 1999. This was my second dive as a part of my wreck course. It is the same day and place as my last dive. So the conditions were the same, but we stopped at 20 meters this time. We also made some differences. We had a hard time to navigate at the wreck, so think about that if you wanna go here. And a differende we made this dive was that me used a line to hold on to on the way back to the surface. That was great, it helped us to get a good safety stop. You get here by car and jump i...

20 July 1999. Me and the club I belonged to went out to practice some navigation during a dive. I had hire gear: a semidry, 9 kilo on my belt, a medium Coltri BCD. My regulator was giving me to little air all the time. I had to take it really easy and relax. Sometime I even had to "flush" the regulator to get anought air. The sight was from 0 to 2 meters, and it was dark and absolutely nothign to see... It was to dark, and the equipment was not checked by me, so we could not navigate. This was a...
