    Size XS Aqualung Pearl BCD For Sale

    Aquadiver, I see you are in Dallas. I'm in Austin. Would an in person transaction be possible? Also, they just had a voluntary recall on part of the Surelock II weight pockets. So I would want to take it to the store and get those changed for you, first. I have been putting it off since...

    Language Barriers with Buddies or Dive Operators?

    Hi! I'm preparing to go to Malaysia and Singapore next year. As such, I've gotten interested in different aspects of international diving for the solo traveler. For my DM certification, I want to do a presentation of skills related to building trust with your (insta-) dive buddy, operator, and...

    Path to become a SCUBA Equipment Engineer

    Do you know anything about patent law/engineers in SCUBA that you could share? Also, I hesitate to respond, but most designers would point out that the "female card" is no different from the "extremely experienced diver card" or the "young and fresh take card." You have your technical...

    Path to become a SCUBA Equipment Engineer

    Thanks! I'll definitely check that out. I'm not only interested in regulators, though ergonomics can be an issue for smaller persons, like myself, who like more compact items. But some manufacturers do advertise that Women's BCs are designed by women.

    Path to become a SCUBA Equipment Engineer

    I'm not sure where to post this question. I'm a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering studying environmentally conscious design, and I love SCUBA. I currently work part time sales at a LDS, and am very interesting in being an engineer for a SCUBA manufacturer. I've done Oceanic's regulator...

    What are the biggest challenges for female divers compared to men?

    The biggest problem for me is fit. (5'2" and 108lbs and athletic with a TINY waist) When it comes to Aqualung my main question is this: Why do your wetsuits run small but your Womens BCs run a little big? My Pearl is over adjusted and the Lotus barely fits. I guess the average female diver is...

    Hair Care when diving

    I've been wondering about diving with a swim cap. How well does a swim cap work for heat retention? My hair is super gross from Lake Travis in Texas - that lake is dirty. Combined with the sun, my hair coloring gets messed up. I might suggest wearing a hat on the boat, too.

    To new FEMALE divers

    I am also tiny, and most women are petite. I think there are probably two BCs in the market for my size. Luckily, wetsuits help me get away with an imperfect fit. Are most women divers NOT petite?

    Size XS Aqualung Pearl BCD For Sale

    I really like the Pearl BCD, but I would like to change to a back inflate or a backplate and wing. If I could scavenge it for parts and integrate it into my own BP/W set-up... I would. My pearl was purchased in December 2011 and lives happily in Austin, TX. It's 7 months old and does NOT have...
