    Very simple.

    They haven't requested one.

    FAQ: Have you thought about your own forum on ScubaBoard?

    Actually, we have ASKED them to let us host one for them, but to no avail. We would love to have them on here!

    We provide a FREE forum for any manufacturer who would like one. No strings attached!

    All you need is Love!

    Why do they (AquaLung or any other company) have to participate to have a specific forum for a manufacturer? Even if they don't participate, it would be nice for us forum members to be able to ask and answer questions associated with a specific company...especially a high profile company such as AquaLung.

    There's a place, where the boat leaves from. It takes away, all your big problems.
    Your worries, you can drop them in the blue ocean. But, you gotta get away to where the boat leaves from.


    Everyone needs to believe in something ... I believe I'll go diving.

    I would expect that Aqua Lung either does not understand the value of social media or they do not relish the appearance of the "unanswered" questions that would result from such direct contact with consumers (and dealers)........or both.

    Can you image the VERY first question they would get from participation in a forum...

    "How, EXACTLY, does LeisurePro get millions of dollars worth of your merchandise each year?"

    Well, you can do that without a forum having to be created, all you have to do is start a thread entitled, "AquaLung Gear", or something like that.

    The manufacturer's forum was created to give each manufacturer a specific location in which they can address, directly and one-on-one, any issues with their respective products.

    It is disappointing, however, that such a famous name in the diving industry elects not to join us here.

    I imagine the 2nd question would be "why do you strong-arm your dealers with manipulative price controls? "


    but don't want to answer questions like that......

    I am told that aqualung does have someone that spies on (reads) these forums.. Too bad they don't participate. Aqualung does make pretty good quality gear and also represents the Apeks brand. Sure would be nice to have their participation on SB.
