    Question Right size for latex seal replacement?

    Bad chinese spool reel

    I think I might share my disappointing experience with a reel bought at Aliexpress that may help others buy this stuff knowing its pros and cons beforehand. I thought a smaller reel would be easyer to store, so I bought this one: It's being sold at less then 5euros (plus shipping), it has a...

    "Buoyancy and trim" stability: physics principles behind it

    Does anybody know of any (more or less) detailed source about this topic? I'm searching for any kind of related articles, but it has to be something that discusses the issue with a physics/mathematical approach.

    Is this BCD's buoyancy enough for me?

    Hi there :-) I've been gifted a used Mares Vector origin BCD. It's ok, good conditions, normal wearing but not bad at all. I already used it once on a shallow dive and I am generally happy with it but I am not entirely shure about the buoyancy it can provide. I am 1.85m tall, 80Kg, I dive with...

    Hi guys :-) I'm new to scuba diving and I have my own Apeks XTX50 regulator. It's brand new, so I don't worry too much of any sudden failure at the moment, but I read many divers take a spare mouthpiece in a pouch just in case. Are the mouhtpieces all the same size? Should I buy a specific...
