A heads up. Seal’s Water Sports in Santa Rosa has several thin light weight stainless steel Freedom Plates for sale. A couple Xtra smalls, a few smalls, and a few mediums (standard). Sorry, no larges. If interested call them at (707) 542-3100 and talk to Zeke or Jennifer. These plates are set up...

We load them in bags and bring them back to shore. We have to do it that way by law. There are only two sites currently in California that allow culling (smashing). One is Caspar Cove in Mendocino County and the other is Tanker’s Reef in Monterey County. In Sonoma and Mendocino Counties we are...

I understand. This whole thing is kind of a cultish joke post anyway. I mean, who in their right mind would agree to do a shore dive in Northern California? And what lunatic would agree to eat fresh uni right on the beach? The booze, IDK? No comment.

You can take a shot first to loosen up, then you have to slurp down the uni, then I’ll make an exception and you get to take another shot right after the uni. But it’s really nice vodka, Polish potato vodka, only the finest.

I don’t know man, it seems like a fowl way to do it.

Can someone please explain what a “chicken wing” maneuver is please? When I think of chicken wings I think of the fried ones or the teriyaki ones smothered in sauce. Happy had it right, you pull the front of the strap away with one hand and the other hand goes under the strap hand first and...

A current G200 kit will work if you want to leave it as a 109.

Pour conditioner lube in your hair and also lube the suit really well so your hair doesn’t pull all the lube out of your suit. Getting through the neck part is the challenge. But look at the benefits, you are working on your breath hold time while you are working the suit over your face in the...

I had a VDH 18 lb wing on a really nice thin polished stainless plate. My stupid steroid injected nephew begged it away from me. He wouldn’t stop pestering me so I sold it to him. I’m still pissed! I was wanting to go to the tropics some day but now I don’t have it, and I’ll never be able to get...

Which brings me to my next point. Maybe what I need to do is make people do a pilgrimage and come here to pick one up in person. But, not so fast! There’s more to it than that. First we will set up your rig. Then we will take a trip out to the coast and we will go urchin diving. You must...

There was also a guy here in SB who was a prolific poster and seemingly nice guy, funny, and knowledgable. I reached out to him and he agreed to try one then do a review of it. This was back when I couldn’t give one away. Never heard a peep. Turns out he was a big DIR type koolaider but it also...

Well, here are a few tidbits that will give you heartburn ❤️‍🔥 A gal contacted me a while back and an airline lost all her baggage and her Freedom Plate was in there. I sent a plate to a guy and UPS lost it somewhere in Bakersfield. It was never recovered. Another guy bought two plates and...

You can use some citric acid to clean up that rust. It will dissolve ferrous metal corrosion and leave all the other components of the alloy alone.

The search function doesn’t work very well since they’ve recently updated the site. I’m going to stay out of this one since my opinion is biased being that I’m the guy who makes them. I’ll let actual users respond with unbiased reviews. Both good and bad please for this guy, let’s be honest.

The only thing I care about is the future of the Conshelf 14 and the 1085 second stage. If there was a way to somehow extract that division out of the rest of the mess and preserve that entity as a stand alone enterprise would be great. From some of the intel I have gathered, and if I’m wrong...

So have we concluded in scubaboard expert land that Aqualung is indeed done and falling in slow motion about to make a thunderous rumble as it hits the ground?

Wow! What a great video! So much fun 🤩

Do you have any residual effects or current problems with your lungs? What was the biopsy for?

Welcome back to diving. How old were you when you first got certified?

Wow T-bone beat me to it.
