    When would you forego a solo dive?

    The beauty of solo diving is the ability to call a dive for any reason and not feel any remorse for doing so. I know that as a buddy team that ability is the right of either parties also, but there is always a silver of me that would feel bad if I had called a dive.

    Thrift Store Discovery

    I picked up 2 pairs of force fin pro for $25 dollar each pair at a army navy camping store. That is right a camping store. It was owned by a former seal. I had wanted to try force fin for many year, however the price for a new pair was too high. I keep my eye open for any scuba items in any...

    Which are the best spring straps for SCUBAPRO JET FINS?

    I agree that the xsscuba springs are the best on the market providing they fit well(not too tight or loose)- 2 inch difference between 8"-10"-12" is a wide variation. That is the reason why I made my own pair using 0.062 ss springs from mcmaster-carr. I would stress to who ever is making their...
