hi String
I exchanged my leaking apex low profile valve for the Apex high-profile valve and it works just fine !
They will exchange it free of charge but unfortunately I'm unable to find their Web address !
If anyone has it I would be grateful !
Steve
Thanks PnL
I had the same problem on my dry suit and I sent the low-profile valve off to apex and asked them to exchange it for the high-profile valve which has been no trouble !
I will have to do the same with my mates valve !
Thanks/Steve
yep thanks uncle pug , just what I needed !
I was surprised how quickly he moves back in the video !
Forgot to mention that I use splits which will probably make it a tad more difficult , or maybe impossible !
Still I can least try !
Thanks again/Steve
Can anyone tell me how you achieve finning backwards!

A video link would be "Great", or secondary a description!
Thanks/Steve
Yes it has got grey inner parts, so must be the new one!
PnL you say yours leaks is yours the new one or the old one ?
And do you get very wet or just a wet sleeve?
Thanks for replies/Steve

We inflated the suit on the beach after...
She was inspected for unexploded explosives very soon after being sunk, public diving was scheduled for 5pm the following day! Although I couldn't imagine the visibility being very good. We're hoping to dive it next weekend!
I am unable to look at any of the gallery pictures and none of the posts have visible avators . Although I do see some of the random pictures !!!
Have searched through some of the archives but have found nothing of use as yet !
Any help appreciated
Steve
Went for a dive today and as I was entering the water (10 C) I purged my apex reg ATX40 but it continued to purge after removing my finger from the botton, I tried pushing the Botton on off again and finally managed to stop it by moving the airflow lever but not before losing 30 bar of air!
