Well all the shearwater suppliers seem to have it at exactly the same time, and it does have a shearwater logo on the back. So it does look like a shearwater branded product. Just not sure what they were thinking.. Seems as crazy as when cressi was selling their digital spg for $350 when it...

And let’s see $808 for the compass and quick disconnect .. Yeah Umm no thanks. Think most people would just get a peregrine at $450 or less and spg for $140 or less and call it a day. Hopefully shearwater is just testing the market and seeing if their is an interest in a console mount and...

Definitely not air integrated, this is one of those things you have to go DOh! On. Fact of the matter is, most divers prefer to have their dive computer on their wrist, it’s easier to look at and you view it more often. Had this truly been an air integrated unit, then yeah for people the...

A lot of companies may not offer to cover you if your traveling, however if you contact them directly they can sometimes still write you a policy. There is divemaster insurance, h20 insurance to name a few. It’s best to just get a few quotes and check what is and isn’t covered: i.e. if you loose...

They don’t have set schedules that far in advanced. But check the winjet and ultramar Twitter accounts to get a general idea of times. Right now the two companies are alternating service , one operates on even days . The other one operates on odd days. It’s a reduced schedule, but you...

Just stay away from the smaco bottles and all that nonsense they have going around these days. Might seem like a cheap alternative with an all in one solution, but the bottles are manufactured in China, and I am guessing you may have issues finding a dive shop willing to fill them. And I...

Oh doctors just love the overnight webMD doctor/patients. But the pulmologist will most likely want to have a PFT (pulmonary function test) lung function test. You may have taken one if you went to a pulmologist to get diagnosed for asthma. You basically breath into a mouthpiece in a sealed...

I would also add, that chest pain isn't something to be taken lightly and should be followed up upon. It can be a sign of something serious and in some cases can be fatal. An online forum can be a good place to get a general sense if something is normal and or what might be the cause. But it...

I would get a consult for a specialist if you continue to have chest pain or even before... An x-ray is a good starting point. From what you are describing and the fact you have asthma this could be mediastinal emphysema- Iwould look over the following article. Perhaps discuss it with your GP...

I am not sure how you arrived at that analysis. He called up Padi and other operators and asked them what type of offers they where giving for cross-overs and renewals. Other then his editing for "amount of time on hold." The certifying agencies pretty much where the ones talking. ----- Hey...

I could continue on and on.. Heck padi used to certify divers to 130 ft, there was no AOW course. Now they only certify divers to 60 feet and have created another course AOW.... Because cmon' we all know coral classification and digital underwater camera operation is going to help us be able to...

If your doing this by yourself. The best recommendation I can provide is make sure you pack a 5mm wetsuit. Cenotes are considerably coooolder then whatever the warm temperature in the ocean is that day. Personally, I would just book the trip with a dive shop, that way if you need a 5mm wetsuit...

I have, and obviously it depends on how much they are paying their "actors" how many cuts they have had, editing,etc. It would not be fair for me to compare online courses et al I have prepared and scuba diving courses. However, what would be fair to compare is say the cost SSI charges for...

Padi is the largest certifying agency and marketing powerhouse. Sure they could offer the ecards for free, they could even offer printed cards for $5. But they aren't about to. They are out for money and more and more money. Similarly with online classes, there is no legitimate reason they...
