[rigdiver]

So , how is the show? Is the weather playing havoc on attendance?

[Jendra]

ScubaBoard now on iPhone.

As in an app? When I search for SB it says no matches?

[kingairpilot]

This was my first scuba show. Seemed a bit small, and I was expecting more gear...but it was a blast. Seemed like it was more of a travel related show but ScubaToys did have some gear on display. There where more folks in attendence than I would have thought given the snow and fog on saturday morning.

Long story short, IVE GOT TO GO DIVE NOW.
