I may be looking to much into it but my thought is using the swivel u can keep one hand on the reel and one hand on the line the whole time. Where if u flip the reel u have to remove one hand and u have a chance at dropping or fumbling the reel and depending on the dive that could have the...
Nice didn't know they made them also don' want to pay 90 to 150$ for a jump spool. Hoping I can find a bag of 5 stainless steel ball bearing swivels for 10$. Hoping someone with experience in using these either pros or cons can shed some light on this. thanks for the reply
Has anybody heard of using ball bearing swivels (like for use with fish) on jump reels to keep them from getting a nasty line twist. Apart from the obvious of adding a potential failure point I do see some advantages to doing this. Reel retrieval would be much easier and when you're running your...
Looking for updates on little river as well as Ginnie if there open and are divable. I dove peacock last weekend and p1 basin was amazing crystal clear. The lower part of p1 was a little sility but wasn't bad past that as well as the waterhole but that could have been due to other divers going...
I like that idea it's mainly for standing them up in my house I have tile throughout my house so it's a pain to lean them up without sliding. I'll just take them off for diving and leave them on while there at home

I like them but I've had bad luck with buying painted tanks vs hot dip galvinized thanks though great price if i didnt do alot of salt water diving i would buy them
I agree January is a good time and birds underwater is a great shop to book through very reasonable prices for groups all sizes and I think they provide food and hot chocolate they also do guided dives to rainbow and some of the local springs
Great question not sure as of right now I'm fin heavy went from a rubber fin to dive rite xt and love them I'm still slightly fin heavy and that's with adding 2 lbs to my shoulders and I have my tank as high as I can get It but my fin heaviness will prob even out after a few more dive only have...
Thanks I don't mind carrying the extra weight I dive with a single 120 l.p. now and it's not bad. I'm looking to single the 85 or 95 for now then doubling them up later. I'm wanting to fine tune my buoyancy and with the 120 its not to bad but kinda of a pain but I like it for making multiple...
