I received my initial training from SODA and as with any novice diver you entrust that the information that you are receiving is true and accurate. As a few years have past and I my training and knowledge has increased from other dive professionals in the industry. I have come to realize what corners were cut in my training or was lead to purchase equipment that wasn't necessary. I'm sure it helped SODA with their end of day receipts, but sure has left me with the feeling that I was only important for the length of my purchasing ability. I sure do love diving and I do know better now.

My wife and I were thinking of taking diving lessons before our next trip to Florida. We checked the other stores in town, but went with these guys because of their friendly attitiude, and the fact that they really wanted to have us enjoy our experience. We did the training, and had a great time diving.on vacation. Thanks Rick at the Vandalia store.

Nice people who really seemed to know their business. I will go back to SODA from now on.
