Ross' very first diving experience was from an ex-Navy diver who had a lean-to next to the pool at a hotel in Key Biscayne, FL. He was only eight, but tall for his age and had spent the entire week at the hotel pool, fascinated by the man with the dive gear.

Paul "the beard" Nonemaker started diving in 2014 the cold waters of a Pennsylvania quarry. He used this an an opportunity and excuse to travel and dive in Nassau, Thailand, and Hawaii. He was hooked from his first breaths underwater and could not wait to learn more.

Mu got hooked to scuba diving during his travels to Koh Tao, Thailand in 2011.

Billy's first introduction to scuba came by way of his father. At an early age, Billy assisted his dad on various commercial diving jobs along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. In 1978, Billy became a PADI Open Water diver and began exploring recreationally around the globe.

D.J. started diving quite by accident in 1999 when he visited the Florida Keys for Christmas vacation. The resort mixed up his dolphin swim reservations, and they offered to make up for it with a Discover Scuba Class. The rest is history, as they say.
