Put my kid in a Small BP when he was 12, he used the BP till he was 16 and the strap till 20ish. Still uses the Wing today at 24. New plate was $75 and strap $15. Best long term investment I made.

Look up PELAGIC Transmitter on Amazon, $299. They been $299 for at least 3 years.

I been looking to purchase another Transmitter for a while now. I presently have 3 Oceanic versions that have been working perfectly (never more the 2) with my Perdix and Teric. Now these units are $100 more then the Oceanic/Aqualung Transmitters, and the same price as the Garmin. This seems...

What's a snorkel? Oh is that the rolled up piece of plastic that sits on my pocket? I think the last time I used was was maybe the 90's.

Well all, I am going to tap out of this thread. Just does not seem like it is being productive. For those that tried to provide good constructive feedback, thank you so much. And, yes @kensuf my buddy and I practice shared air accent at least once a every 5 dives. We have a nice rotation to...

So it looks like my thread got hijacked.... :( Back to point... I am still trying to find out why gas switching is an issues with FFM. @kensuf Comments on commercial divers have more training. Ok, so if we out in the time and training, and practice is it viable, are there people doing or...

I have asked him the same questions. I do not see to much of and issues with your list, gas switches would be on him. Place long hoses on all his bottles, for me, if I have a failure. If he has a failure, he gets my octo's and switches masks. As Bigbella stated, I have heard commercial...

Well I guess I do not know that joke. :(

Maybe everyone is smarted then me and I over read this or everyone missed your pun. H = helium

Hello All, My dive buddy wants to start diving his full face all the time, including technical dives. For me, I have never seen anyone on the boats diving a full face mask. I am sure it is done, just have not seen it. I am new to Tech Diving, and have only dived in Ft Lauderdale, Key Largo...

I stopped watching Alec Pierce Scuba years ago. I really did not like his video about adjusting 2nd stages, I do not find it safe for the avg newbie. Then of course his ignorant, then arrogant videos on Long Hoses. Inner Space Explorers for me is hands down the best. I love this guy, taught...

If you really want to go cheap in Cozumel, go Native. When I was doing my Divemaster Course I stayed in town. The house I shared with 3 others was on Calle 3 S 1/2 a block from 30th Ave. I hit up the Mega, for breakfast and lunch food to make then, I almost ate daily at Chilangos (amazing)...

Just got back from Ft Lauderdale, had a afternoon dive on June 1st. Our group of 5 where the only ones on the boat, the shops other 2 boats had none. I heard the DM complaining that he is not making any money, even when the boats are full. He has gone from 6 days a week to 2, since I dove with...

I know I am a little bit late to the game, and it does not answer your question, but do you own all the rest of the Gear? If you plan on Diving up North, Drysuit, Computer, BP/W and Regulator are priority. Many shops do not rent Drysuits. Once you have all this, you can dive the different...

One of the dive shops I use in Central Florida has stated they have not been this busy in over a decade. They are absolutely flooded with students. Another Shop I go to is empty. A boat owner I take student's out on has stated, Biden's CG rules of number of divers on a CG boat, is holding...

@Eric in Chicago Do what @wetb4igetinthewater said..... I went to Landon (I think he went back to practicing medicine though) at AQUI after I was a Divemaster to fix some fundamentals that where not taught properly. They are extremely professional and very very good. They are not bare...

Thank you all for the feedback.

Just a curious question but, why do they not teach or promote using a Regulator Necklace on your primary 2nd Stage, in a short hose config? I saw a guy doing this yesterday, and I was like, why not.. I only dive long hose these days, and always use one. Just curious...

I have that t-shirt.... sitting way way way back in the closet. Hiding in the dark where it belongs. :)

You had been a DM for a Year.... That's a huge difference in experience. The majority of thier Zero to Instructor in 90 days College students that have only dove in the swimming pool called Florida Keys. Many have never seen a Din, a Dry Suite, a BP/W. To certify people that do not even know...
