Q&A: Is it ok to use a rock climbing helmet for snow skiing and snowboarding?
Question by : Is it ok to use a rock climbing helmet for snow skiing and snowboarding?
Best answer:
Answer by OMG, I ♥ PONIES!!1
Climbing helmets lack several useful features, such as:
* not designed to be used with goggles
* generally don´t cover the ears (for warmth)
* don´t cover the back of the head as fully
* no adjustable ventilation
A climbing helmet is designed to protect you from falling pebbles… not the kind of thing you wear a helmet for on the slopes.

Well I’m no ski/snowboard freak but I have some experience and know that Colorado or Utah is good and I know of Madonna di Campiglio only because of the MotoGP Ducati team that I follow but it looks pretty good to me and I would want to go there. Here’s a link for Madonna:

Any tips on passing Scuba Diving Certification Test?
Question by Holly Would: Any tips on passing Scuba Diving Certification Test?
I’ve taken the Scuba Diving written test twice and can’t pass. Any tips to help. I am terrible in math.

Answer by scubabob
Math shouldn’t be an issue if you made it past grade 6. As for tables, I believe they let you use an ERDP now on the exam ( I’m not in favor of that, but I don’t make the rules).
Most of the questions on the exam are common sense or included in your manual, so there should be no issue there either. If you read the manual, did the quizzes, you should pass the exam. If it’s the tables that are bogging you down, they actually require little math at all. If there’s math, it’s a multiple dive day and you’re simply using addition. Most of it is just taking known information to discover unknown information. If you’re unsure of the steps involved, that’s what you paid your Instructor for…ask him/her.

where is the best place to go scuba diving in Florida?
Question by OrangeSharpie: where is the best place to go scuba diving in Florida?
I want a place that is close to Orlando/Kissimi, I understand it gets better the further south i go, however, this is not an option. I am with my family and we have prearranged times to go places and I have only one day to go scuba diving and must be within around a 1-1 1/2 hour drive of the location. I have my advanced open water through PADI.
