Jon I agree wholeheartedly with you scuba is an expensive business to get into I am into it about 5/6 years now and it only now that i seem to have everything I feel I need. I am about to enter the saltfree comp with Sam and will be my first comp but my reasons for entering are purly to see what I can do in a very safe environment and to meet a few db people face to face. At a local triathlon they offered two swim distances one was 350m to try and get more people into it and it worked. Sam has a best newcomer to the double dip which is a great idea. We could also have categorys by age etc so that more people might enter with a view to winning something but I think like myself most people are entering comps for thier first time just for the experiance. Most people taking part in marathons are there for the same reason just to take part.
