this fine old relic, a US Divers Bimini mask, ca 2001. A little dated (rubber skirt) but very serviceable as a practice mask. In excellent condition, except now I find that the left lens retainer ring has two broken tabs, and is not holding the lens on the outer/upper side. Maybe practice was...

yeah, I had one of those when we went snorkeling the second time off a boat and I tried diving down. I had forgotten about equalizing after getting certified 16 yrs earlier and then not diving, and so my eye whites turned red from the bottom to about halfway up. Stupid stuff. As usual...

thanks folks! My bad/my duh. ScubaBd is great, answers by the end of the morning...

thank you. old guy, born in 64. (also, tall, blond & nearsighted (~-7 diopters both)). Yeah, I know, some doctors will say "what do I expect". A lot :) Is that where you're headed ? Old eyes, old vitreous, stuff happens ? I just don't want the presumed underpressure in the goggle space to...

Not quite diving, but this seemed like the likeliest forum. Since I started regularly swimming in a 25m pool a couple months ago, including occasional breathhold swims along the bottom at around 5ft, I've had two instances of sudden-onset visual floaters and flashes, one in each eye, including a...

Mahalo nui loa for your updates ! The second cite lays it out, I guess this episode started in 2015. Let's see what comes back (and work to stop climate change in the meantime). Aloha!

thanks all, we went to a shop in Oahu and got a nice ScubaPro which she's happy with. Person from Mako, thank you for your info, we just didn't have time to check that out.

thank you we went with Honolulu Scuba Co and got a nice ScubaPro, she's happy. Mahalo to you all for your replies, aloha !

just got back a couple weeks ago and while had a wonderful trip, can see how much the environment is under threat. Dived on Kauai and Kona, most visible was retreat of live reef while snorkeling at Kahalu'u park south of Kona. We were there in 2006 and 2011, both times we were probably there...

We have a day or two to attempt to shop for a new mask for my GF, she has an old Tusa hyperdry but borrowed a low-volume mask and is hooked and was informed of the downside of purge valves... Anyway, she has a small, narrow face and some cursory testing in the store showed that many masks...

Greetings, GF wants a new mask and we could use a recommendation for a good shop on Oahu. Google is inconclusive, we don't have a car, Aloha in Wahiawa looks good but we'd have to take Da Bus. Mahalo !

btt, your input appreciated

is Seasport still running out of Koloa on the Anela Kai with the same captain as fall 2010 ?

I've read the recent threads on this and they're 1/2 year old or don't mention my exact wishes so I'll start another. I want a wheeled bag that'll stand up to airline checked luggage, and will hold two sets of fins, booties, wetsuits and assorted stuff. Anything delicate gets carried on, so...
