Murdering innocent civilians is not acceptible under any condition... This is a cowardly act that is unforgivable... What might be the motive for such a political statement? Regardless, it gains nothing... Our hearts are thoughts with the families, Saudi Arabia is still in shock from...

Dear all.... Just an update to all of you about my bends. I took your advice and got my hospital to refer me the Navy's hospital (300 miles away). I found a chamber that accommodates 6 divers and 2 tenders. There is a larger one that can have 19 divers!!! They immediately got me on US...

LesleyDSO: Thank you for taking the time and effort in responding. I am aware of the 12/24 flying rule, I was forced into taking an earlier flight because of unforseen circumstances. The morale is: no matter what happens or how urgent you need to fly, don't do it and wait instead...

blacknet: the other diver didn't fly afterwards. And ur certainly right, nitrox is the way to go... regards and thanx to all who posted

blacknet: Thank u sooo much for ur time and effort. just wanted to add a little something about those Aladin Air X computers. A lady who was diving with us (exactly the same profile) had an Aladin Air X Nitrox (exactly like my computer plus nitrox feature). Just for fun, I asked her what her...

Thanks to all of you for your concern.... scubakat: i did not maintain contact with DAN at the ER. I was disappointed that they had a limited chamber database, and I didn't contact them afterwards. However, i am DAN insured. Liquid: Thank you for your concern. I dont think I...

Here's my story, I hope that everyone avoids the mistakes I've made. I'm a male diver, 29 yrs old, in good health, and usually sensible about my diving. I've been diving since 1999, and currently an AOW with nearly 40 dives. I did two shore dives on Thursday 23/8/2001, max depth was 15m, with...

I had the same problem with the Air X, it beeped until everyone in the Red Sea took notice.... nontheless, the Air X is great. However, I spoke to my LDS, and they are happy to adjust my computer as often as I want. I went from metric to imperical and back, then got the same hassle with my...

Hi everyone, John Bantin from DiverNet http://www.divernet.com/gear/dtst798.htm states that Scubapro regulators are made either in the Italy factory or the Mexico factory. The European market gets the Italian production while the US market gets the Mexican production. Is this true? He also...

luvdiving, the scubapro shop in my city is a branch, which means that they have to send the reg to their headquarters in another city for overhauls. So no problem here. :) TO ALL PARTICIPANTS:- ==================== Let's all vote on this one.... Given that an inspection (service)...

The LDS is an exclusive Scubqapro agent, but I think they are avoiding doing this, since it invloves sending the reg to another city and returning it afterwards. Possibly to cut costs. Thanks for the info, I guess we must be firm when it comes to safety and not allow a LDS to cut corners...

Has anyone tried the Scubapro Glide 2000 BC? It is usually sold in the UK, i dont know if its sold in the US by another name? How do u find it in tropical waters? and given that a BC is defalted underwater, does a BC really make a difference down there? Thanks for ur feedback....

Hi all, I bought the following gear in June 2000 (last year):- Scubapro MK20/G500 Scubapro Glide 2000 BCD (UK model number) Scubapro Air 2 octopus The LDS told me that I need to perform annual maintenance at the time. I performed around 20 dives with the gear last year. When I...

i suffered from chronic ear infections during my childhood, that narrowed my eustachian tubes, making it hard to equalize. my right ear is the worst affected and always gets infected in diving trips, no matter how careful i am. i got the proear 2000 hoping that it would solve the problem. the...

Thanks to everyone for providing their recommendations and assistance.... i guess i'll visit to aquaflite so they can take my measurements, probably they can take better measurements than i do... i'll also get extra zippers as simonk999 suggested, and probably additional seals (e.g...

hi....this is my first post so here it goes.... Q1. What makes a good custom wet suit (specs, ideas). I'll mainly need it for tropical conditions (e.g. red sea, caribbean) Q2. Has anyone come across custom wet suit makers in Miami or the UK? thanx a million,
