    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    I'm pretty sure there are issues with these suits so buyer beware. They are out of stock again through LP so I'm assuming they found issues with their other suits after I raised the issue. They're telling me they don't expect them back in until June. This is awful. WTH Bare!

    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    So FINALLY I get a response from Leisure Pro. Kudos to them for picking up the slack from Bare on this: Hi Josh, I just received an update from the warehouse about the Bare 3mm Men's Sport Step-In Jacket. According to our specialist, that should not be the way the suit is. This is a...

    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    The sad thing is that I've been exceptionally pleased with every other Bare product I own. I have the 2 pairs of gloves, a hood, and the farmer John part of this suit (which is sold separately). This is the only issue I've had, and its sad that they either have the suit cut this way, or that...

    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    So BARE says their quality control department checked into it and this matches theirs. This makes no sense to me. So I contacted Leisure Pro (where I bought it.) Hopefully they will be more receptive. Otherwise I really dont know what to do outside of having it tailored. And I havent seen any...

    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    I did some measuring. If I flatten it out, at the wrist it is 4", and then about 5" up from the wrist (the forearm area) jumps up to a shade over 6" at the widest part. This seems crazy to me. I called Bare on Thursday, and just heard back from them today, they requested measurements. I bought...

    Did I get a BARE wetsuit lemon?

    Let me first start by saying I know I could have gone the custom suit route, but up until now I have been very satisfied with my Bare products. I own several pairs of gloves as well as the farmer John to the step in jacket in question I'm 6' tall, athletic build, roughly 210 lbs. I have a...

    Treating a Aluminum Mount for Underwater

    Thats only for rail guns. I used the side arm as my mount though. Just had a bracket plate made to accept it. So I have the anodized piece from mako, just need to do something with the newly made piece. Powder coat seems to be the best option. Otherwise anodizing is like $50

    Treating a Aluminum Mount for Underwater

    Hi everyone. I am having a camera mount for my speargun fabricated, and it will be out of aluminum (cheapest option and easiest to work with). How can I treat this so it won't oxidize as fast? Would plain old rustoleum paint work? Any other options? Anyone ever have anything anodized? Is it cheap?

    INTOVA ICOM problem

    :-( Definitely somethings wrong. Can get the light to either flicker or turn off a number of ways. Rotating, a slight jostle, or tipping upright.

    INTOVA ICOM problem

    Yep, definitely have a problem. When I tip the light upright, switch side down it shuts off, and flickers faintly in the glass housing where the bulb is.

    INTOVA ICOM problem

    I just picked up a brand new Intova ICOM from a reputable eBay seller. Brand new in the package. I get batteries in it and turn it on. From a distance of about 3 feet shining on dark carpet, the light pattern appears to flicker intermittently between say 80-90-100% brightness. Does this seem...

    Sea soft stealth boots

    Great tip! I just picked up a tube of this stuff. How "sloppy" does the repair look afterwards? Is it possible to make it look clean? I just don't want to go through the hassle of a return and warranty claim, nothing against SeaSoft. Plus I've had the boots for probably 1.5 years, so for me it...

    Sea soft stealth boots

    Hi. I've got a pair of stealth boots that's I've used maybe less than 6 times diving. Where the rubber at the top of the foot meets the neoprene it has begun to separate. Is this something that is a defect or just a result of use? What can I do to fix it ?

    Scuba diver new to spearfishing

    Any pro's and con's for a tube gun over a wooden gun? I'm comparing everything to the JBL woody 38 right now. And is it pretty much a foregone conclusion that with spearfishing comes sharks? I'm trying to convince my girlfriend, lol.

    Thanks for your reply! Do you know of a specific product within the Mako line that would fit into my budget and hunting grounds?

    RG 3000 Regulator Question

    Nice. Thanks for saving me a couple $, for now. More towards dives! So is there any benefit to an ICE kit for help with salt water?

    RG 3000 Regulator Question

    Hi everyone, I have a RG 3000 regulator made by Dive Rite, along with a Dive Rite second stage and Dive Rite Source Octo. I used it maybe 3 times last summer/early fall and thoroughly cleaned everything when I was done. I am wanting to make sure everything is up to speed before I dive this...
