    Maintaining Lateral Position in the Water

    @tbone1004, I tried in vain to find another reference showing how this is done. Is there a video demonstrating this?

    Suunto Vyper not working - works only as a clock

    My Vyper, less than a year old, had the same problem two weeks ago. My LDS tested it in a pressure chamber & confirmed that the depth sensor wasn't working. Looks like there's a current settlement in the US for defective depth sensors in Suunto computers: Home | Suunto Dive Computer Settlement

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Will definitely work towards learning to service my own kit, in the meantime I'll need to rely on the LDS. I was told that it may be even harder to source for parts here because one shop holds exclusive rights for the SP parts. I'll reach out to them tomorrow for service quotes.

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Here are some additional pictures. I circled the areas where I think there may have been some corrosion. How bad does it look? I'm now worried that if there is some corrosion on the outside, it's likely worse on the inside. Ouch! Is that the regular price of servicing these regs, or...

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Thanks for the keen observations! I insisted that we meet on Saturday & requested for additional pictures. Pictures might save me a 4-hour trip if you're correct, but fingers crossed that you're wong. Yes, I'm actually looking for a DIN reg. Most places I frequent have DIN tanks available, but...

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Thanks! Looks like the seller and I can't find a common time to meet on the weekend. Woud it be totally crazy to have it sent by courier without inspecting it? Seller seems trustworthy.

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Thanks for the replies! I think I'll be getting it this weekend. The seller lives 2 hours away, and it may be difficult to have it tested at a dive store before purchasing. Is there a way to visually inspect it without pressurising the system? I plan to take it straight to my LDS to have it...

    Used MK25 EVO / G260 set worth it?

    Planning to buy my first reg set. I've come across a deal for a MK25 EVO / G260 reg set for about $525 (converted from PHP). Seller said it was bought last year, has about 30 dives, and never serviced. I'm in no rush to purchase. Is this fair deal? What should I be looking for when I check it...

    Quick easy solution to high air consumption - Grab a Go Pro

    I've had a very similar experience! I have a tendency to overthink my bouyancy & trim, but when distracted with a GoPro or a less experienced buddy, it magically sorts itself out. Of course when I realize how amazing I am, it goes all wack. I guess like in other sports, you get to a point where...

    Thoughts on Aquamundo's Agila & Ventec fins

    Hi all! It's time to buy my first set of fins. I've had a chance to try out Aquamundo's Agila fins, and I'm happy with the control they provide. However, my legs have a tendancy to sink, and I'm having troube staying in a horizontal position. I sure that I'll improve with more practice, but I've...

    Hoping to dive regularly in the Philippines

    Hi Ed, I live in Quezon City. Didn't know we had wreck dives in Subic. I just did my first night dive in Anilao yesterday and wreck is definitely next on the bucket list. What center do you dive out of in Subic?

    Hoping to dive regularly in the Philippines

    Hi Scuba Board! Got certified while backpacking in Thailand in 2015, and soon after started a desk job in the Philippines. I've only recently started diving again, but hoping to find a financially friendly way to dive regularly. Any tips?
