I just had a scuba refresher course with DJ's Scuba Locker, and I think they do a very good job…read more Two friends and I met at the shop, where we met the owners and our instructor, Zach. After completing some forms, we were fitted with shorty wet suits, BCs and the yoke with the hoses for the regulators, BC attachment and air pressure gauge. Zach instructed us review all the equipment as if were at a renting scuba shop, and I found that my regulator's mouth fitting was damaged, and he immediately replaced it. First Zach helped us remember how to set up our gear, while adding many useful suggestions and knowledge to the session. Once we assembled our tanks and BCs with his guidance, he made us do it all again, but by ourselves, only saying something if we were doing something incorrectly. After this, he packed all our gear and we went to a YMCA nearby to do the actual diving refresher. The equipment worked well. He had practice 25 (might have been 28) skills for recertification. He is a very good instructor, meeting each person where they are at and helping with their needs. All the time he kept emphasizing important points and talking about what to expect at our dive shop because of his knowledge of similar places. When we were done, Zach packed everything and we left. He is a very affable, pleasant, and professional young man who knows his subject matter very well. The owners of the shop are also very nice, we had an opportunity to talk to them as well. I bought a mask, which the lady owner had me try several sizes and qualities and helped me decide on one that was very comfortable and very reasonably priced. I give the whole operation, but especially Zach, 5 stars. My friends agreed with this rating. I will be going back there for my diving needs.

I just finished the second part of my Open Water Dive Training with DJ Scuba, and it was fantastic…read more I met both of the owners; one when I was getting fitted, and the other when I was picking up my gear, and they were both extremely nice and helpful. They went over the gear with me and made sure it fit properly, and it was all in pretty good condition. My instructor's name was Jeff. He was very nice and even let me dive even though the first day I came two hours late because my alarm clock died. I had already come to terms with how screwed I was and didn't expect to be able to get certified before I left on my trip, but when I called the dive shop to see if there was any way I could still dive, they called Jeff to let him know I was coming late and he fit me in before his next group! My only gripe is that they're a little far out of the way (I live in Chicago), but I took Ogden straight there and it wasn't too bad, maybe 25 minutes each way.

Some two years ago, I decided to look for local dive shops. I found Midwest Scuba Center and walked…read morein the next day. I've since done Advanced Open Water, Computer Nitrox, Rescue, Visual Inspection, and Equipment Specialist with Midwest Scuba Center; I'm currently working towards Divemaster. I traveled with the shop to Dominica, Florida, and Indonesia. All of them were blasts. I saw pristine marine biota unmatched by anything you'd imagine. We also enjoyed many different cuisines across the spectrum. As a Divemaster in training, I experienced the backstage of scuba diving. Every minute a diver enjoys means two minutes of hard labor for the staff. I can't stress enough how increasingly appreciative I've become since starting Divemaster. I've become good friends with a lot of the staff. Alex is the owner of Midwest Scuba Center, and as opposed to Brad, the previous owner, he is an incredibly amiable guy; just like him are Jesse, Pete, Rick, Bill, John... I kept coming back day to day to the shop to hang out and to help out. I enjoy being around those people. I can't imagine what my life for the past two years would look like if I decided not to walk in that day. I've established connections with excellent people from all over the world through scuba. It is a big escape from the vicissitudes of life. I encourage everyone to give it a shot. You may not be as into it as I am, but you will never regret it.

I was amazed that when he saw my goggles were not good, he just said that I should replace them. Not once did he mention buying from them. I did check prices on the internet. I could not find a lower price for the mask and snorkel. Looking forward to scuba diving, again.
