    Changing cover for the Scubapro C200

    I am changing the color of it from yellow to black as I am starting to dive with a long hose configuration. In this configuration the regulator which was once an octopus becomes my backup regulator. In case of an out of air situation instead of giving my buddy my octopus I give him my primary...

    Changing cover for the Scubapro C200

    Lucas indeed have it, but they asked for 50 Euros for shipping outside of Europe which was not worth it. My LDS said he expects to get the new Scubapro parts catalog for 2012 in a couple of weeks and then he will be able to order one for me.

    Help in understanding an alert on the Suunto Vyper Air

    After reading a bit more about deepstops (following reefduffer's recommendations) I have decided to activate deepstops on my computer for 1 minute. My conclusion after reading is that as the computer does them automatically, it can only help and not provide any risk. I would like to thank...

    Help in understanding an alert on the Suunto Vyper Air

    I agree with muzikbiz22, very interesting stuff! Thanks for that. reefduffer, your first link does not work, could you please re-post it? I also found this article on DAN: Alert Diver | Deep Stops which is also interesting although all I could get from it is that I should not add deepstops...

    Help in understanding an alert on the Suunto Vyper Air

    Thanks guys, Now I see that on section 5.10.2 "Mandatory Safety Stops" it says exactly as all of you stated, that I should advance to the safety stop depth and clear both my usual safety stop plus my penalty safety stop. I was looking for it under ascent rate therefore couldn't find it...

    Help in understanding an alert on the Suunto Vyper Air

    Hi, I had an alert on my Vyper Air yesterday that I didn't understand. I could not find any explanation for it in the manual and would like to know if anyone knows the reason for it. My dive was to 24 meters, once we finished we started to surface but did not do it vertically but...

    Changing cover for the Scubapro C200

    After a few emails with Lucas they said that they can send me a C200 cover, which was not that clear the first time I contacted them. The problem now is that they want 50 euros for shipping whereas the cover itself only costs 10 euros... I am from Israel, I was talking to our Scubapro importer...

    Changing cover for the Scubapro C200

    Hi, Got a C200 Octopus and I want to change its cover to a black cover, as I plan on using it as my backup reg (With a bungee necklace). At the moment as it's an Octopus it has a yellow cover. My LDS say they can't get a black cover for the C200 (Nor can they get any other color, they just...

    Heavy legs affect trim

    I don't know any DIR divers and we don't have a GUE instructor in my country, but I will try to find someone with a video camera or even rent one. After I'll have my video I'll see what's wrong with my trim. I might even upload it here if it won't look that bad :)

    Heavy legs affect trim

    I'll try to put the tank a bit higher, that's the cheapest option therefore the first, thanks Jax :) After that I'll have a look at 7mm booties, although I dive warm waters and afraid it will get too hot but that's an option nonetheless. I'll also find someone who dives OMS slipstream and give...

    Heavy legs affect trim

    I didn't notice the sink my feet until now. I really like them cause the split eliminates muscle contraction, yet they are stiff enough (Got the XT version) that I can feel them when I kick and are quite fast. My tank is positioned that the valve is at the same height as the top of the wing...

    Heavy legs affect trim

    I don't wanna ditch my Apollos, I really like them. I will give position B a second chance and do it more slowly and notice the exact position shift I have after each movement which I didn't do last time. Just out of curiosity, which fins are less negative? I know the jets and the F1 are...

    Heavy legs affect trim

    At first they were at position A, and most of my dives I was doing like so. After reading a bit about DIR and seeing a few videos I tried position B but still I was not able to maintain horizontal trim. I tried using the frog kick but when I tried bending my knees It was much harder maintaining...

    Heavy legs affect trim

    Hi, I dive in warm waters without a wetsuit. I wear a swimsuit and a lycra shirt. I use a Halcyon Infinity with an AL80 tank and Apollo BIO-FIN PRO XT fins. Since these are warm waters I don't have any additional weights and only use the SS back plate. While I dive I notice that although...

    Do bolt snaps damage the hose?

    My current set up I have the rope between the hose and the bolt snap. It seems as though the bolt snap is touching the hose a bit but they are both tight enough to not move along the hose, but the bolt snap can move a bit, which is what I want. I think I will leave it this way and follow up on...
