    Octo on right , or left side?

    I'm one of the left side divers. My daughter and I took our initial OW classes in 2019. Mid-South SSI shop that also runs local university program. Everyone that learns OW through them is set up left side octo. When I asked my instructor why, he gave me the DAN list almost verbatim. Makes...

    Closed Deep6 Eddy Fins - White - XL

    Still available. I'm also size 11 but have narrow feet. I found the foot pocket a little bit wide for my feet using a 5mm Fourth Element boot. Usable but not ideal. 10-11 seems to be the in between size for the Eddy. L or XL works depending on the foot/boot combo.

    Apeks DSX dive computer: Any info?

    Since Aqualung owns Apeks I would suspect it to be similar to the higher end AL computers.

    Closed Deep6 Eddy Fins - White - XL

    One pair Deep6 Eddy Fins. XL in white. These were out of the packaging long enough for me to realize they aren't a great fit for my feet. Never wet, will ship out in original Deep6 packaging. $120 buyer pays actual shipping. Shipping - FedEx near me is awful. USPS and UPS decent...

    Dive computers - buckle or bungee strap?

    Elastic but not bungee. I have an Oceanic Geo 2. The watch strap became irritating real quick. I didn’t like having to use the extender and it was always loose at depth. I tried a NATO strap that fixed the length issue but not the flopping around. Third try is an elastic French paratrooper...

    Wanted XL Fins - Hollis F1 LT/ Deep6 Eddy / OMS Slipstream

    I have a set of Deep 6 Eddy. XL white. Bought new at end of last year. Tried on for fit only. Never been wet. Still in the original shipping box. I’m in the US and at least seven days from being close enough for photos, shipping etc. Bad timing. Just had a close diving friend fly out to Israel...

    Scubapro Go Sport Fin Strap

    Riding out Elsa in Marathon. Did manage to get dives in Sat and Sun. Straps appear to be the same between Go and Go Sport. They do come in multiple sizes. Research before you buy. Pics of stainless screws below. I tried to find slotted vs Allen screws so just about any crude screwdriver...

    Bungee for a Geo 2?

    No affiliation. I just have this on my Ebay watchlist. Oceanic Geo2 / Atom2 bungee mount adapter for scuba diving computer | eBay I ended up landing on this one. French Paratrooper style. Elastic. It works OK but the buckle is a bit of a pain. I'll probably end up with an elastic NATO...

    Looking for a new dive mask

    I recently had this issue and lowering the mask strap on the back of my help fixed the issue. Lowering lets the strap pull more straight back and less up.

    UK Online dive shops

    Not UK but I've had good transactions with water safety shop dot eu. SCUBA aside, I've had better luck with German and Danish shops online vs. UK. Car parts, electronics etc.

    BP/w Grab Handle?

    The strap pictured above is the strap that comes on most Zeagle soft BCs. One just like it on my daughter's Stiletto.

    What is the tape/material used on this DGX spool?

    Careful with the heat shrink tubing. There is a fine line between hot enough to shrink the tubing and hot enough to weaken the nylon/polyester line. Good idea to test your line strength before you dive.

    Swimsuit under Wetsuit

    I'm a fan of O'Neill Skins shorts. $30-40 at Amazon. They are cut and sewn without a center seam running right through the middle of my important parts. They also holds up well to chlorine.

    Fix for narrow feet? Converse? Other shoes?

    11.5B checking in. Not only skinny feet but typically right between sizes for most fins. Stumbled upon the combo of Fourth Element Amphibian/ScubaPro Go Sport. Haven't been able to find a better fit. Fully admit to being a new diver but the data point is still valid. With pretty much any...

    Diving with contact lenses

    I wear dailies and use baby shampoo for defog. Never lost a contact. As previously suggested, I would look at fit. Once my contacts are in place they don't move unless I physically move them with a finger.

    Recommended fins for diver with bad plantar fasciitis

    I've been struggling with PF since January until I found a stretch that worked. Runner's stretch with feet crossed has made a world of difference for me. I'm using Fourth Element boots with insoles and Scubapro Go Sport fins.

    Snorkeling in Hawaii (Maui and Big Island)

    We hit half a dozen beaches in the big island this past summer. My two favorite beaches to snorkel were Two Step and 49 Black Sand. Be sure to show up early as parking will be limited. 49 Black Sand is inside a gated community but there are a limited number of public parking spots. Just pull...
