    Got to test-dive a Waterproof drysuit

    While removing my DUI after the first dive today my neck seal failed. My LDS owner was nice enough to let me borrow his personal Waterproof drysuit. I'm not 100% certain but I think it was the D10. Overall I have mixed feelings from my single dive in it. First, the suit is at least twice, if...

    DIR in everyday life

    I wish these were my words, but this is from an email.... I converted to DIR about 6 months ago and I have found that the philosophy extends way beyond diving. I think most people tend to view DIR as a gear configuration or diving objective type of thing but it really is a philosophy that you...

    Ugh, feeling like a doubles newbie again....

    I started down the cave/wreck road 3 years ago and then got derailed. 2 years of almost no diving, but started back this year. Been doing the single tank BP/W with the long hose to get used to it again. Last couple days, I pulled out a set of double AL80s to practice with while my son had fun...

    2 or 3 gas computer, looking for recommendations

    Howdy everyone, I'm back (for those around long enough to remember me that is!) Anyways, while diving this past week my trusty DiveRite NiTek Duo became untrusty and decided is was permanently diving at 13 feet. Funny the the top thread here was "has anyone had a computer die" LOL. So, I...

    Looking for answers

    Ok, this last weekend, my son and I went to the lake to do some AWARE cleanup dives. My son was perfectly fine until he submerged the first time. Before he hit 10 feet hit stop and ascended. He said he had a stabbing pain in the back of his eye. We sat on the surface a awhile and tried again...

    WTB AL50's

    I am looking for a couple of aluminum 50's for my 10yo son who just got certified. I prefer something with some hydro left on it, but it'ss not a deal killer. If you have one (or two) you don't use any more, let me know.

    SI question..

    Planning a trip to Coz, and the wife would like to go to Playa Mia while there. Can anyone tell me what it costs? Seems like I heard it costs to get it, but then I have heard that all the beachs are public, so could anyone fill me in on costs, etc. Thanks

    Thoughts on my drysuit leak

    OK, a couple days ago I made my first dive with my DC gloves installed on my drysuit. I have never had a leak in this drysuit until this dive. As soon as I got down about 6 feet underwater I noticed my left hand was wet. Then I noticed the water was trickling in. Not a wet spot, it was...

    small sized backplate

    I am looking for a small sized backplate for a new diver. A standard sized plate is just too long. I know that several manufacturers make custom, small sized plates. If anyone has bought one and doesn't need it anymore, let me know, lets make a deal!

    trying to form a new team

    My dept is looking at starting a PSD. We have an all-volunteer PSD (which I "joined" 2 years ago), but it's a joke and basically exists in name only. A dept based one can enforce training standards, equip maintenance, etc. My training officer wanted to just send me to the course. So we had a...
