just starting

hello , my name is james and i have been diving in shore @ 20 ft deep for about 18 yrs.i grew up going out with family and just having fun,nothing serious at all.going out to the noth shore in oahu hawaii was all about 3 prong for tako and small fish for frying. about 4 months ago my co worker(808 natural) asked if i wanted to go dive with the some other guys ,little did i know how much of a good diver he was.ever since i have been trying to get better with my depths and my breath holds, i'm even trying to make my own speargun.looking at this site has gave me some ideas and looking foward to the knowledge of all the experienced divers and speargun makers.
until then...look out for me in the deep end.
