    Wrecks in Jupiter or Ft. Pierce area?

    No question about it, my favorite wreck dive I've done. Vis. is iffy sometimes and it's a deeper wreck ( starts at 80'ish and goes to 135 ) but it's kick ass. Do some google's on it. I've done it 11 times and keep coming back.. Largest shipwreck in Florida next to the spegiel grove...

    SPG's All The Same?

    besides that it's standard :-) 1. I wouldn't want it the hose possibly interfering with my use of the inflator. 2. I'll always have at least a backup light always clipped to the chest d-ring already so even if I've got stages theres more room on the waist d-ring. 3. If there's a...

    Opinions on Suunto D3?

    I'm using it and like it fine. I replaced the strap and use the upload cable/box from jamei on this board. Favorite feature is the count up timer. Hint: use the search feature to find out some of this type info as it's usually been discussed in the past. I think at least 3-4 other...

    Deco help.

    Also, one thing that I do on all my cave dives is to spend at least 5 minutes on the surface just floating around relaxing before doing any activity at all. It's a good time to think about the dive and debrief with your buddy. I do it in the ocean too when I can depending on...

    NAUI TEC's Deep Stop Conference

    is his name, but everyone at the conf. just called him Alf all the time! :-) The part he showed concerned the effect of exercise prior to decompression. He had a lethal treatment that left 10 out of 10 rats dead, but when they exercised heavily 24 hours prior to the treatment, 8 out of...

    NAUI TEC's Deep Stop Conference

    Dr. Powell, I must say that even remotely, the presentation you gave was one of the best of the conference. The studies have made me think a lot about exersize during deco. Though the presentation Alf made was very interesting as well in regard to pre-dive exersize. Have you seen his...

    Dry Suits: Pee Valve

    Since we're on the topic, does anyone know of a better price than $141 for a box of 100 of the rochester wide bands? Or anyplace that sells the advertised box of 30? All I've found is onesy-twosy and box of 100. Thanks! Kell

    Bottom Timer with Minutes & Seconds

    Nick, can I ask how they failed? I've only had mine on about 12 dives so far but it's been flawless. How many units have failed? What failure mode? Was it the same on all of them? How was the unit fixed by suunto? Please let me know the details if you can, until then I'll be...

    Bottom Timer with Minutes & Seconds

    It's pretty nice and I saw a posting about it for 205 ( less than what I paid! ) I particularly like the count-up timer and the display. You can switch one field back and forth between time of day/dive time and another between temperature/max depth. The buttons are pretty crisp too...

    Just got back from a weekend with bp/wings

    though I think you'll find you don't adjust as much as you might think. Also if you do switch back and forth between say a diveskin and a 5 mil a lot, the quickest way to adjust is to mark the spots on the harness with a paint pen then you can just move it quickly until the wear points set...

    Getting Clear on the Basics: The Fundamentals of Technical Diving

    Hey has anyone here printed the GUE cave PDF? I've done the tech manual fine but the cave PDF has an odd size page ( #66 with the silt type comparison pictures ) that makes kinkos want to do custom. I'm assuming that I cannot resize or modify the PDF in any way even though it's just...

    Wireless EPG for possible technical use?

    Can ya'll with the vytec please confirm: The hoseless pressure reading works/displays while the vytec is in gauge mode? I think this is a first. I can't think of another hoseless air integrated computer with gauge mode. My aladin does not have gauge mode and I don't think the...

    Can't get trimmed out.

    First of all I wouldn't recommend overfilling aluminum tanks. I do it all the time with steels but I'm cautious with aluminum but it's your choice. Also I have read that catalina's have undesireable bouyancy characteristics compared to luxfers. I don't have any trouble with my double...

    Anyone be interested in a Suunto interface in kit form?

    Jamie, I'll take one. I'd like to come pick it up next time I'm up in Athens if that's ok. Have you actually uploaded a D3? I know the interface is identical but I was just wondering. Thanks! Kell
