Fighting moisture in your underwater housing

par Ksso le 5 mai 2011

If you're doing some underwater photography, you know how painful moisture can be. A few drops of waters in your housing, pressure, and *bam*, you can't take pictures anymore.That's why god (well science rather) gave us silica gel.Those funny tiny white bags actually are supposed to capture moisture and keep the inside of your housing dry, but beware, those do not last forever - when they captured all the water in the air they stop working, and drying them out is a pain (and can be just impossible in some cases). Even worse, it's almost impossible to tell the state of your silica bags, they may be useless already but you have no way to tell...Now here's my little secret : I use those...

Diveboard feature updates : Export your dives

par Ksso le 4 mai 2011

Dear Diveboarders, we just released in production a upgrade to the service. The Changelog includes:

Export your dives:You can now export one dive as ZXL / DAN DL7 from the profile pane of your dive, or multiple dives from the "Bulk Upload" wizard on the "Export" pane.

Better support for UDCF & ZXL:A couple of users have experienced some trouble uploading their dive files, this is now fixed. As you may know, each software vendor has its own interpretation of the format norm... so we'll do our best to include support for all those flavors as we encounter them ...

Objective Atlantinde : a treasure hunt in France's mediterranean sea

par Ksso le 2 mai 2011

Objective Atlantide is a treasure hunt that has been around since 1989. Since 2003, a Mediterranean-sea-only version is organized over a period of 3 months. A pack of clay tablets (20000 this year) are scattered on popular spots of France's Mediterranean sea and groups of divers have to work together and find 14 of those to enter the final and have their club win one of the numerous prizes. The clay tablets are dropped at a max depth of 20m (60ft). The hunt just started this week-end, so if you're looking for you next dive, you may consider entering the challenge !
