Hey all!
So I'm very new to this whole scene, but I definitely like what I see. I've been a swimmer much of my life, but for some reason never ventured far below the surface. Coincidentally, I also love fishing and the outdoors, and live on Vancouver Island, so I guess I'm set up for it. If anyone in the Victoria area wants to put up with a broke newb trying to learn to freedive, let me know!:t

Hey, welcome to DB, Wetcoast Wally!

Hope you enjoy your time here. I grew up in Washington and spent a summer in Victoria when I was a kid. Nice island! Hope you are having a good Spring/Summer.

Cheers,
 
Hey Wally,

I am in Victoria this evening, but heading up north island tomorrow morning. There are a handful of divers around Victoria, but I have not heard from most of them in a little while. But if you stay in touch I can most likely hook up with you on the return trip or some time. Do you ever go over to Vancouver or up towards Nanaimo and Campbell River?

Cheers,

Tyler
 
Hey wally! Welcome to DB :wave
You'll sure have a good time around here, I can feel it...
Best,
Sanso
 


I have to train in Victoria, so I can't leave very often, but depending on what happens in the next couple of weeks I may be going up to Nanaimo on occasion. I hear there may be a get together of sorts late june on the island. I think I may look into that, though I'd only know at the last second if I would be free or not.
