    Flying in with Scuba equipment into Shanghai. Yes or no?

    Hello All!! It's been a while since I've been on the forum due to work and since I'm moving to China soon I wanted to know if I can take my scuba equipment with me. Regs, BC, etc but not tanks. Anyone know if it's allowed? I read online that diving equipment is not allowed to be imported...

    Mares Audio/visual divemate, info?

    hi guys! So my obsession with scuba toys is still going on and I wanted to know if anyone knew anything about this computer. The Mares audio/visual divemate. It's meant to clip on your divemask and the audio is audible. But my google-ing has failed me and I can't find the manual or anything...

    Which One Would You Go For?

    Hello Y'all! Which one would you go for? The halcyon or the Apeks? Halcyon being offered for $300 non negotiable, Apeks for $250 and there is room to wiggle. But both will need a service I assume :) I like both brands which is why I'm confused... FYI, those are not my pictures, the sellers...

    For Trade Oceanic Vt 4.1 With Halcyon Rig :)

    Hello :) I'd consider trading my Oceanic VT 4.1 with a halcyon single tank rig. Any takers? Lemme know :) I'll be in a NC last week of May so I can either meet up there or we can arrange a swap by mail (through a trust system). But I'd rather we meet and probably make a dive day out of it...

    Gue Fundies Vs Rec-1

    Hello Y'all! I was looking into doing a Fundies course to get my diving up to par since it seems everyone everywhere has the same opinion: it is a kick-ass course that helps in many ways. I contacted both the dive instructors available in my country and it seems they both have the same opinion...

    Working On A Frankenreg

    Hello Peeps, So, I'm working on a FrankenReg, found a Cressi mc9 online that I think is too good a price to let go off, it comes with the pressure gauge (prolly some cheap one but this will be my backup to the back up), and the BCD LP hose already connected (check pics here below). I'm eying a...

    Ratio Computers - Reviews? Thoughts? Info?

    Hi guys! I'm interested to know more about Ratio Computers. Their website shows some awesome stuff and the capabilities seem James Bond like as some of you had commented.

    Opinion Topic: Dubai - used scuba gear store - yay or nay?

    What do you guys think of a proper used scuba gear shop in Dubai? Do you think it's a good idea? It can also double as a proper service center that services everything under the sun! I know that some places here only services their own brands, I also know that Zeagle doesn't have a service...
