Its been a difficult few years for diving in Sydney, Australia. COVID and bad weather impacted days in the water. But in some ways it was good to be reminded what a beautiful part of the world we live in....

Interesting - the same thing happened to me - Reg goes missing during cave diving course

Hi - I'd like to dive in Lombok. Keen to get any suggestions on dive centres, dive sites and hotels. Mostly I like macro/muck diving but happy to do anything really. Appreciate any help...

My wife - she's 54....(sorry - a bad joke that just popped into my head. Please don't let her know otherwise I may end up on the accidents forum)

yep -that must be it. Impressed with the bubbles - can you attach a picture?

1. My cave sidemount setup is B. 2. I also dive sidemount when diving solo open water with 7L tanks when taking pictures (shore dives). In this case I wear a necklace on my left reg. This IMO gives two advantages - one is covered in point 3 below. The other is that it simplifies the reg change...

Liked your forms - please let us know the results. Not living in USA football to me means something else so that one's a bit country specific. As an aside I went with a friend and our two sons skateboarding about ten years back. He ended up breaking both legs. So skateboarding is up there for me...

I've spoken to other people who have had the mouthpiece separate - not many but enough. And on rentals I ALWAYS check and have picked up one that needed a new ziptie. I find the necklace to be great. Won't be losing it....

My other point would be that standard training teaches us to check lots of things, but not the mouthpiece. Its been a while since I did my open water so please correct me if I'm wrong...

lol - Yep - fully accept I should have checked it . However, attaching the mouthpiece to the reg by a ziptie seems very failable to me. I've seen them come off since on rentals but thankfully not in the water. No gear change, just loosened (somehow). Not all flaws are human and I strongly...

I agree re training our response. Design flaw was referring to using a ziptie to attach the mouthpiece to the 2nd stage....

This incident happened about 5 years ago but has been on my mind. I'd quit a job and had a few weeks before starting my next job so decided to do a cave diving course in South Australia (I'm based in Sydney). I travelled down with my gear (sidemount) and met the instructor and fellow student...

Thanks - would you consider selling the 5508.46 port separately? Thanks.

Hi - sorry - a few questions. What model is the flat port ( is it 5508.46)? Any leaks? Any issues shipping to Australia? Thanks

Thanks JSmith - much appreciated. Keen to get the 5505.45 if possible...

Hi - after an Ikelite 5505.45 port + shipping to Australia - Thanks

Hi - wondering if anyone has feedback on this lens. I'm worried about the auto-focus in low light. Had 90mm Tamron that would just hunt when I used it underwater. My setup is an Ikelite housing for Canon 5D Mark iii...appreciate any feedback.

hmmm - looks like from this diagram it doesn't need it - Apeks spare parts for drysuit inflator valves and dump valves
