    Drysuit Selection - Pinnacle vs. DUI?

    I think you should recheck the prices of the suits. I have been quoted much less in Michigan for the DUI suits. $2800 seems a bit much even if everyone tells me the DUI is the best.

    new regulaters

    I have another silly question. I have been looking into buying a new reguater, but am wondering if it would be better to use an octopus, or an inflator-integrated air source. While the integrated air source seems simpler I still am not sure this is the best way to go..Thank you.
