    DR XT fin moan

    Hi Buddha, Do you think it can be swapped the spring strap with old rubber strap from Apollo Prestige? My Apollo fins just broke up few days ago so I am thinking about getting new fins (potentially the XT fins). I found rubber strap is more comfortable to me.

I purchased many Brynite, XTAR and Archon flashlights several years ago with satisfied result. Brynite was bloody cheap at that time. Sadly that now brynite...

    I bought this cheap China made torch from Aliexpress and brought it with my liveaboard trip. It has 6 LEDs and is claimed more than 6000 lumens brightness.

    Jacket BCD and trim

    I would say "try to dive with bp/w and compare with jacket for yourself" You will know what you want most so that you can spend money on what you like. Each type has pros and cons depending what your preference is.
