    Low pressure tank question

    I dive LP95s and I was just thinking:no:..... When the DM says back on the boat with 750LB on your gage they are usually dealing with HP80s and 3000PSI tanks.

    Atomic split fins - how do the sizes run?

    I think they run a touch small, I have a size 15 dry-suit boot and an xl atomic split, it is a snug fit, But i do have big feet. Other mfg. fins seemed to have more room when I was trying them on. I do like the fins tho, they are quite a bit stiffer than my Oceanic V12's
