We're not talking about having the October on the necklace? I wouldn't have the primary first stage on the necklace.... Anything I am planning to donate should be easily accessible. In this case I assumed you would be donating what's in your mouth. :-)

If people have an ooa situation they will probably grab the one they know is working. Is the one in your mouth (why a friend of mine lost some teeth). So upside is you can dip your head and get your octo immediately. Down side... Can't think of one. But I use a fairly standard set up... Just...

Normal Colgate has always worked for me. And it leaves my mask bright and minty fresh.

Sounds like you're about right. Many people are over weighted on ow. I was. Not good practice. Just learn to relax when you hear boat noises☺ or see a whale shark.. Relax, dump with raised left shoulder..(there's probably a bit more air in your BC). The more you dive to more weight you'll...

As a pregnant lady do not go near the classroom! The stress of trying to explain rdp tables to someone who is just doing bit cos his friend is... can be just too much. Stay home. :-)

I like the simplicity of the suunto gekko.... Now the Zoop. I have mine on my regs because I would sometime s forget it 😊. On my wrist a D4i... Also very happy with it for day to day rec diving. Personally happy to be conservative... It gave me plenty of time on red sea 4 dives a day...

There was a TV program on this. It seems (from their research) to be that many people who die here are Instructors and DMs... young guys who think they're a great on air, have the skills and attempt to do the 50m swim through, without realising how long it is, how narked they are, and how much...

Brilliant. all great advice. Thank you all.

I've seen many divers with GoPros but it seems, a lot of the time, to be point and pray.... I'd like to be able to see what I'm shooting. What kit would I need, full set up for:- Gopro 3 (silver) Housing to 40 metres Back video screen. ?? Soryy a little vague.... but just started looking.

Check out https://www.facebook.com/MafiaIslandDiving?fref=ts Danii and David would tell you the best times and best dives. Visiting the island is like doing a liveaboard, but with more room to walk around.

I can recommend Buccaneer Diving in Paje, Zanzibar. Well run operation. Buccaneer Diving - 5 Star PADI IDC Centre, Kenya, Zanzibar for contacts

I really cant remember, I'd have to have a look when I'm home. Sometimes I use the AIR2 (see my other threads) But the alternate I have for the MK25 is just a decent scubapro second stage I got when I bought it. I pretty much trust that all Scubapro stuff function pretty well (having done the...

No holes anywhere else. The failure was simply this. Added air using power inflate button and it came straight out of the unit... as if the deflate button was stuck.... but it didn't appear to be

Good choice of regs. I have the same... but if you're planning to pay a bit extra I would go for EITHER the groovy looking Tech version in Tech Diver Black, and ALWAYS wear your mask on your head back to front between dives AND make sure the rest of your kit is in black. You don't want to be...

The air2 has gone for a service and was "fixed" So I am still waiting to find out why it failed. If it was anything other than the air2 failing (in whatever way) replacing the air2 with a normal inflator wouldn't have solved the problem (which it did) My MAIN concern was I was unable to orally...

Yer, pretty much aware of what I would have had to do. :-) Practice it regularly with students. This is why PADI are now putting a bit more emphasis on this skill. Actually removing AND dropping... not just simulating it!

I have had a recent issue with the Air 2.... just for information.... I have posted it in the Scubapro section. But in essence.... my Air2 failed and it would not deliver air to my BCD, nor could I oral inflate. I was not in a happy place at the end of that dive!!

I am a Scubapro-holic. Love my 2 SP BCDs, my 3 SM reg sets... actually 4. I love my 2 Scubapro Nova Scotia suits, shorties, 0.5mm and SP 3mm steamer. I recommend Scubapro to friends and students. But after my experience with the Air2 I may not be recommending that. I bought it in Dahab and had...

Apart from the safetly stop thing (what if I've done an hour at 6m?? ) First off, always dive with a buddy. Always. Always? Always always? What if I'm taking photos of shrimp gobies, I'm a certified self reliant diver, with a second air source and 700 dives... and conditions are perfect? Do I...

Did you come to Kenya?
