thanks guys, cbm32, I had another friend that dives all the time tell me the same thing about being down under the water at 30ft or more. he says that the pressure "pushes everything back in place" and he feels good for a couple of days after diving. He's got fused vertebrae and even has an...

I injured my neck and upper back a few months back. I've been through physical therapy (12 sessions), taken a couple of pred packs. had an MRI done and am in the process of going back for more physical therapy and traction. My neuro surgeon says I have 4 bad disks in my neck, but they're not bad...

I just got the last package today from Beaver Divers. I bought a BCD and a bunch of toys from Casey and had a great experience. His ease to work with and persistence to make everything right so that I received the equipment I needed to get me in the water was above and beyond what our local dive...

I just had a great experience with beaver divers also. Casey went beyond to make everything great. I'll be using Beaver Divers again.

I watched it last night on PBS and thought "What a great idea". I'd read about the Vandenburg before, but had no Idea that they were sinking other ships. Way Kewl! oops, It was a different organization and show I watched. The one I'm thinking of sunk 3 ships off the coasts of Florida.

Glad you sold it. I ended up buying a Scubapro Glide Pro with Air 2 from a dive shop in Colorado.

I see it hasn't sold yet, Good luck!

No apologies needed. It did help the thread and will hopefully help others using the "search" feature. I'm not sure who Nereas is. since I'm a newbie to the forum. Thanks again everyone for the clarification on BCD's

Well the Mod's changed the name of the thread, and it's not the I would have posted the question. I like the majority of the responses though, and I feel that they are right when they say that BP/W's are bought and sold by people that are more interested in the sport and always looking for...

Is this just overthinking, or am I missing something. I've been looking for a BCD to fit my large body size and have been through the classifieds here almost everyday. Some say backpack/wings is the way to go. Others say Traditional BCD. So why is it that most of the BCD's in the classifieds are...

Looking for a used 2XL BCD. Weight intergrated or not. Just looking for a starter BCD to get me in the water. Willing to spend up to $150 Thanks, Dave

I'm 6'1" and 310lbs. I found Akona to be a good fit. I was 336lbs when I bought it and it fit good. It's a little loose now, but still fits ok. I really don't need a wet suit here in the summer, and went with a shorty. I think it was $110 new.

I'm going down that way tomorrow. Maybe I'll see you there. ---------- Post Merged on August 18th, 2012 at 03:25 PM ---------- Previous Post was on August 17th, 2012 at 08:49 PM ---------- Thanks for the Purge Button Schubasteve. It works great

Any brands that you can think of?

I'm looking for a BCD and have used a Seaquest in a 2xl. I've tried a couple on at my LDS, but was wondering if certain brands run larger than others? Can an XL BCD fit depending on brand?

Here's a pic if it helps.

I'm looking for a purge button spring for a Sherwood Oasis + (SRB3200) If any has one they'd like to part with let me know. Or, if you know where I can purchase a new one let me know. Thanks!

Thanks for the insight ZKY. A guy I met has two sets of Scubapro regs with 109's and Mk5 first stages. They both have octos, but I'm not sure what they are yet. One has a dive console with computer, and the other has just gauges and compass. He's asking $175 for everything. He's in his late...

Thanks for the info herman,GinoB, Divemaster Dennis, and Jim Lapenta. I completely understand the "Life support" thought, but money is money, equipment is rebuildable and cost effective if you get it for the right price. There are many pawn shops within a 50 mile radius of me, and since I live...

I've been researching used regulators and have seen all makes, models and conditions. One thing I've noticed on a few regulators, first and second stage, is that they are all scratched up. What would cause all of the scratches on the regulators? Is this a sign of poor care, or normal wear and tear.
