Nitrox at Frogg Pond Dive

[sobfrogg]

:) YUP!!!
Its about time. Nitrox at Frogg Pond Dive in Highland park IL. We are doing continous flow up to 40% for now. Later in the winter we will add Partial Pressure fills :) And we will be adding HE.........
Oh and no short fills. If you have 3300's thats what you get not 2950. 3500's will get it. I HATE SHORT FILLS!!!!!!
Right now 1 or 2 day turn around.
$12 per 80cf. $14 for larger tanks.

Cool.

I looked at the Frogg Pond Website. The frogg on the front is cute!

[sobfrogg]

Well Thank You.
We are very fond of our Frogg.

Some people say the site is a little toooo cartoonish. What did you think??

Yes, nice website.

I'm interested in your Lake Michigan charters for next year. Please mail me some info including what boat you use and which wrecks you like to dive. Some folks at the dive shop I am on staff for are interested in some Lake Michigan dives for next year.

Mailing address coming in PM.

Not too cartoonish. It is cute and goes with the name of the store. Gives your site its own personality. That can help people remember it too, which is good.

And congratulations to the folks at Frogg Pond on upgrading your fill station to nitrox - how long before the trimix comes on line?

I think you covered the the major players, Steven. You're no more screwed than the rest of us.
I checked Greg's (Shipwreck Adventures) website, and he has not posted this year's schedule yet. I dove with him in Milwaukee last April, but who knows about this coming year? The man does get around.

Greg will be running charters again out of Milwaukee in April of 2007. He should have his 2007 schedule up soon. I'm interested in his Presque Isle trips.

Great! I thought that one we did with him last April was a blast. Especially the way he warmed up the water.

[ppo2_diver]

Yeah, but he ruined the viz on the Willie. :)

Ya gotta be really careful with that Willie.:eek:

As of now we do not know when the HE will be added. I am hoping before the spring dive season. This should give me some time to get the mixes down before the dive season starts.
Bill as for charters. I can only recomend Enterprise, Nordic, Lender and Lockwood Explorer. Of the other operations listed I have only delt w/ 1. I will not name the boat on an open forum. If you want pm me and I can tell you who and why. Charter dates, Times and Boats.
Thanks for all the input on the site. We have a new owner at the Frogg Pond (4th season) and are trying to go from Caribian diving to my favorite. Great Lakes wreck diving. We do not want to forget about our Public Safty divers or all of our past customers. Things will take time and we will be adding new products to the line up.

Thanks
