Terry Ostby
Technician

 

Terry has always had an interest in diving and the mysteries under the water. Around 2005, he decided to give scuba a try. After receiving his PADI Open Water certification, Terry joined MDC Sports on a trip to the North Shore. There he dove the wrecks and became hooked on diving. From Wazee to Superior to Mexico, as long as he's in the water, Terry is happy.
