NAUI requires an advanced diver certification and a minimum of 50 logged dives to take the ice diving course.

that's another nice thing about freediving.. cut a hole in the ice, jump in.. only requirement is a bit of insanity.  For some of us, that comes naturally.

I'll stick with the rope!  (but I need to get in better shape before ice season gets rolling!)

With the dive business being what it is, why not offer AOW class for him and help him along. then maybe you would gain a new costmer also but then I don't work in a dive shop so what do I KNOW.

Re: cold water dives 10-28-08
your ideas are great, but i was asking for a buddy to go diving with before the ice came

i live in uptown.... as for the ice diving, people are getting presumptuous, i was just asking if anyone combines AOW and ICE DIVING

i've seen some damn awesome ice freediving though
