I have a 18 year old son who is showing an interest in wanting to dive with his Mom...Me ! When he was in the 1st grade he had a Mastoidectomy as a result of an infection within his brain. Is is possible for him to dive ? Should I go ahead and have him checked out by his ENT Doctor...

Just returned from Turks and Caicos a few weeks ago..... In April 2003 will be going to Tortola (BVI's) where we are renting a 46ft. Cat. Then off to Island Hop and dive for 10 days. Can't wait ! =-)

Hi, I use a cap made by speedo out of the same material as a speedo. My hair stays just fine. I also use a neoprene one piece device that fits over my mask strap. The cap should do the trick and it also adds some addtional insulation when use with a hood. =-)

Hello, I'm 5ft 8 inches, 150 lbs....I wear a Henderson Hyperstretch 7mil. I use a 80Al and have a Zeagle Escape. I use 23lbs. I do have a problem gettting down at times but only due to the trapped air in my BC. I use a few less pounds when I use a steel tank. Donna =-)

Hi Dea, I use a Henderson Hyperstretch also......it cost right around three hundred with tax. It is great, really comfortable and boy does it stretch. It allows for some weight fluctuations of up to 25 lbs. Check out their website to find a dealer near you. Donna :D

I agree with art.chick, the cheapest just doesn't last. I bought mid-range through the dive shop I recieved my training at. I'm very happy with my equipment. Because I did my training through the shop he gave me a discount also. With regards to e-bay. I would not buy high dollar equipment...

I work in Law Enforcement and I'm a old broad to boot ! I've seen alot of change with regards to sexism. Is it still around ? Yes, but it's alittle more subtile. I believe alot of how woman are treated has to do with the way they carry themselves. It doesn't mean you have to "act" like a...

Thanks, I'll take a look at the Henderson. My 7mil is the Henderson Hyperstreach and I just love it. So forgiving of those extra pounds. Donna

Hi ! I own a Zeagle Escape......I'm I guess you would say full figured. I'm 5ft.8 and weight 155. The Escape is compact and easy to pack yet it gives 35lbs of lift. I use steel tanks so I carry less weight. The only problem I've had is air trapped in the bladders when I desend...

Hello Ladies, I'm planning two trips, one to the BVI and another to Turks and Caicos. I live in Southern California and wear a 7mil suit. What are your suggestions for a lighter suit. Any brands you prefer and why ? Your comments would be helpful.

Hello, I've been diving now for 1 year and dive as much as possible. I just turned 50 (oh god I hate that number). I sure wish I would have taken this up along time ago.:D DonnaS

Dear Grunt, I too have a Zeagle Escape. I'm a female 5ft 8in. 150 lbs. I know what you mean about getting down. I usually go down about 6ft or so then stop. I usually turn head down and kick my way down. Once I'm down, I'm down. Now, if I'm usually 80cu Aluminum, I will use 22 lbs...

Hello, I know this answer is a bit late, but I'm knew to this site. I have a Zeagle Escape. I love it. I'm female and find the fit sooo comfortable. I have friends who use the "Ranger". I have used it as well and find it a bit bulky. The price is great for what you get. Enjoy...

Hello, I live in Southern California where the water can get a bit chilly. I have a Henderson One Piece Hyperstretch, 7mil. I just love it. Does not feel like that neoprene stuff and goes on like a glove. The best feature is that it is soooo forgiving when you put on a few pounds.
