Funny you should say that - I have already messaged him!

Are socks instead of boots an option?

Hi! I've never dived sidemount before, and have some questions. I haven't dived much at all actually, so bear with me here. The idea of a minimalist sidemount setup appeals to me, such as this: New System - The Deco Sidemount From what I have read (The Two Schools of Sidemount Diving...

Does anyone dive sidemount around here? If so, what's your setup like? Or has anyone tried it here and not liked it (if so why)?

As a n00b I may be missing something here, but why does the frog kick seem to be considered advanced? Swimming breaststroke comes more naturally to me. But then again, my feet kinda splay outwards. I also found that flutter kicking with fins made me prone to leg pain and sore feet.

Hey, while we're at it, does Deep 6 have any plans for tank valves (with accompanying Deep 6 servicing policies)? A friend gave me a tank for free and I'm going to take it to the LDS for inspection, but the yoke valve looks pretty beat up and my Deep 6 regs are DIN.

Even better! My next question was going to be if you'll be offering cam bands, etc.

@cerich Will you be doing buoyancy packages, similar to the regulator packages? (e.g. 30lb wing, steel plate, harness - together)

Thanks for the kinder attitude, RainPilot. My original complaint was not at all about service, just about communication, but I guess in retrospect since the off-tolerance part is not even technically broken (let alone safety critical), Chris could have just said nothing (and done nothing). I...

The original draft of my post was prefaced with something like "As a new diver and new forum member, I'm half expecting to be told I don't know anything..." but I decided to leave that out and give ScubaBoard the benefit of the doubt. I actually did a lot of research, which is why I went with...

Chris posted this in response to this other thread: My new Deep Six regs Having recently bought some Deep 6 regs myself (including DIN first stage) and not being able to test them until January, I've been nervously watching that thread. Regardless of whether another brand would have been more...

Hi! It wasn't clear to me from the website that this is not just a custom cut version of Deep 6's other drysuit, but a different drysuit altogether. I only found this out through some deep scrolling on the Facebook page. Could we get some more specs on the Makara, and how it differs from the...

I learned about the existence of Deep 6 through this thread, and ended up snagging the DIN single tank package Black Friday deal. These are my first regs. As a generally DIY-minded person, I appreciate the company's attitude towards servicing, and also the fact that the first service is free...

Hello! I'm originally from south FL, but didn't start diving until I moved to north CA this year. Since I got my PADI Open Water cert, I've only done two dives (at Point Lobos). Right now I'm trying to piece together some gear of my own so I can dive more. I just got the Deep 6 single tank...
