Ahem! Josh, where are you? Time to speak up.
"I'm in Santa Maria and planning on the weekend at
Avalon with my buddy. Im also thinking about R.
Peter Den Haan's nitrox classes, are you the one
associated with him?

Yep, I field test and report on gear for the PDI.
"Umm well, I see now that he selling solo certs,
maybe I need to reconsider, dammit, there isint
a sole around me that teaches worthwhile diving! "
Peter is one of the best Instructors out there.
Last I heard, he was not teaching anything akin
to DIR though. If you want the GUE DIR training,
there is really only one certifed GUE Tech
instructor in this neck of the woods, and that's
John Walker. If you seek proper GUE DIR training,
get your weekends lined up and drive down here to
take it. Or, If you can get enough students
together, perhaps Walker can drive up to Santa
Maria, but you need to get with him on that. I do
happen to know he relishes driving up 101 in that
monster vehicle of his.
