    Video- NC Shark Action

    I posted this in the East coast section but RobinT suggested I posted it over here as well. This was my first video with my new set-up. I picked up a L&M Stingray HD with a Sony SR12, and 2 10w UK Light Cannons. I am definitely still learning. I had some issues with the AF and I need to be a...

    Boston area dive conditions?

    Hi all, I'm contemplating a move back up to Boston (originally from Braintree). I've been trying to find an idea of what conditions to expect year-round. Can anyone give me a breakdown of water temps in the North Shore, Bay, Cape, and Nantucket Sound by season or maybe just point me in the right...

    Loding ideasw in Provo

    I am going to Providenciales w/ the gf in a few weeks and I'm trying to figure out lodging. I don't do all-inclusives or resort-type places. I'd like to stay somewhere small, close to Grace Bay dining, etc. with a pool, and close to the water. Are there any options out there besides the big...

    Wrecks and Caves in the Dominican Republic

    I just got back from the Dominican Republic, diving w/ Golden Arrow out of Santo Domingo. We did 4 days of wreck and cave diving and I had an absolute blast. I think it's a great place if you want to get some deep water experience and the caves are very cool; kind of a mix between Florida and...

    Any experienced cyclists on SB? Need some info on cadence/hr trainer

    So I've been working my butt off on the bikes lately. I have been riding 4-6 times a week. I ride a mix of road and mountain. My mountain bike rides are all on fairly technical single track, lots of decent climbs, etc. My road rides are somewhat hilly. I would classify myself as an experienced...

    How does a Helium analyzer work?

    Random question. How exactly does a Helium analyzer work? I know O2 sensors work on a chemical reaction that produces a current which is then interpreted as an O2 partial pressure. But if Helium is a noble gas and doesn't react with any other elements, how can you measure He content accurately?

    Is a 35w HID obnoxious?

    So, I'm thinking about upgrading from my DR MR11 10w and have my eye on the Salvo 35w. It's only a couple of hundred more than the 21w and both are ridiculously expensive anyway so why not go for the big guy? My only concern is that the 35w will cause more problems than it solves. Is it too...

    Pinnacle Merino-lined Elastoprene 5mil

    I picked this suit up tonight and did a night dive at the local quarry. I dove for 45 minutes in 60 degree water and I was super-toasty. Honest to goodness, I had way more flexibility in the Pinnacle 5mil than I do in my other 2mil full suit. The warmth was awesome, way more than I would expect...

    How can I calculate accelerated deco and res nitrogen times?

    So, I'm taking advanced nitrox/deco right now and I'm wondering if there is a way to manually calculate accelerated deco times using a rich deco mix and the associated rnt's. My text doesn't go into it, my instructor uses standard navy tables and sticks to the deco times for air to pad the deco...

    Q about backup lights

    So I'm entertaining the idea of doing DIR-F then following the GUE route for cave training. Haven't decided yet, but the option is open. My rig is pretty-much DIR compliant. The only question I have is around my back-up lights. I have 2 dive rite "tec" back-ups. They use 4 "AA" batteries instead...

    Drysuit too loose in torso

    So I just got my new ds after a looooooonnnng wait. It's a pinnacle evolution II. I had to order a size bigger than I would have wanted because I have very broad shoulders. So the arms and legs fit perfectly. The chest and shoulders fit great. The only thing wrong is that the torso is just very...

    Nitek Duo- Deco Mode Question

    Hi, just a quick question about the Nitek Duo. I just got mine and I read the manual last night. I have a question about deco mode. It looks like the computer no longer displays to total run time of the dive once you enter deco mode. Instead, it displays the next stop time and total ascent time...

    Dive Report: Spiegel Grove and Benwood, Key Largo

    Well, just got back from a long weekend in the keys and I had a blast. I flew into Miami on Friday night, rented a convertible (cheesy, I know), and hauled down to Key Largo. We stayed at Marina del Mar and I dove with Ocean Divers. I was pleased to find out that Ocean Divers is located...
