They where originally + hydroed so 3960, and I have heard people pump them a little higher than that.

Still have 6 of these, original hydro 78, 3600 psi, fob chicago or Wisconsin Rapids...reply to Kevin: kevward11 at yahoo.com

I have some more of these available.

Well in underwater hockey gear (mask fins snorkle polo cap) I can do 50 yards in 25 sec. I'm sure I could do it in 30 sec with one of these--so thats about 300 feet per min--kind of. hehe Perhaps the claim is for a very short distance, with fresh new batteries and a very small streamlined...

I'll take them...

3600 PSI cascade bottles, fresh hydro, $200 obo fob Chicago. They where originally "plus" hydro, they are not now.

In my opinion, for an instructor to say anything that could be misconstrued as it being safe or a good idea for anybody to dive to 220 on air is a bad idea. Hey they used to dive the Doria on air all the time, of course they died a lot too. If I drank 9 martinis and drove home is that a good...

Have you ever been the driver of a car in an accident? Everything in gory slow motion and not a thing you can do to stop it, even though you set it in motion...

One word--Aldora. Great hotel, great people, great diving. Villa Aldora.

I've risked my life numerous times for people I've never met, sometimes for empty buildings...Not the brightest bulb on the bush I admit. But I have survived. Its ok to not go it you think the risk is too high. But I won't ever decide a priori that I won't give it a try.

Hey Idoc give it a rest. I am not so shallow that I pick my dive partners by how they look, or assume that because someone is not rail thin they are not an athlete, or someone who doesn't look like an Olympian is a heart attack waiting to happen. The point of the original post was to ask all...

"The best divers" is an subjective concept. By my definition the best divers are probably mostly military. Guys who are rescue swimmers PJ's, folks who lock out of subs and tap into communications networks. Next are folks who are commercial divers in places like the North Sea and the Golf...

I have to apologize to every one. My initial post was meant to be inflamatory. I want people to think. As I said in the first post, I think practice, education and fitness all are important to diver safety. I am somewhat unique in that I am exposed to extreme stress at work on a regualar...

One. Apoc

No this isn't personal I don't know you. Its actually a quote from Full Metal Jacket: from IMDB Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Holy Jesus! What is that? What the **** is that? WHAT IS THAT, PRIVATE PYLE? Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, a jelly doughnut, sir! Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: A jelly...

I'm starting to feel like Jack Nicholson from A Few Good Men: You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend...

Its all just going for a swim. A snorkling sport: Chicago Underwater Hockey - UWH History Underwater hockey, it will make you a better diver.

NO. You are wrong on all points except the last. I mostly chat on RBW, and the audience here is a little different. So. He was diving the O with a rebreather. I don't know any more facts that that. So speaking in general, not about that specific incident. Rebreathers are somewhat...

Wow, where to begin... The knife thing, it sounds like you are trained, so you might be able to pull it off, but to recomend it publicly is in my opinion not good--too slow for the average person, too many things to go wrong. A drown person net of gear is roughly 10# negative, not 200 etc. The...
