Just think of it as a portable version of the oxygen masks that pop down in a plane in case of cabin depressurization. I think it's kinda cool, though!

No offense Bob....but do you mind enlightening us on what exactly you are doing each day at Force Fin?

That's not cool.... In many of the OW textbooks, there is the following statement: "ANY DIVER CAN TURN THE DIVE AT ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON." I'd find another buddy. There is no way that he should say no to turning a dive just because he has a few more PSI left in his tank. It's like a...

Haha....I'm laughing as I read this (no offense Doug, you've got some great info in here) Here's one thing I'll toss in here.... I have tried Force Fins, and I was not overly impressed. They made helicopter turns, frog kicks, and overall diving somewhat uncomfortable. I regularly use XSScuba...

That was not needed.....and rather rude Pegger, the choice is yours...would you rather service the regs, or are you confident to place your daughter's life on those regs? No offense

This is a guide explaining DOT markings....from the look of it I'd say they were old 72s Here's the link-- Exhibit 4 - DOT Cylinder Marking Information from Scott Specialty Gases

First, I want to go on the list to state that I am a newbie, and do not have the best knowledge in these things. I do know, however, that if you get into doubles, or "twins" as you call them, you'll probably get into stuff like a can light, or more advanced diving requiring the BP/W rig. I...

Where did I dive today??

I am also having problems with my Mares M2, on a vista laptop. I get the same message: [M.DM.DP] Error Detail: L = '0' - Error n. [0] - DI = '0' DP = '51' I = '0' AP = '0' UP = '30000' I'm really annoyed about this, and since it's Mares' problem, I'm posting here, All of your links above do...

I've been really pleased with my Agir Brokk Blackbird 36. You can get it from Salvo Supply or Scubatoys.com, and it's in the same ballpark as the oxycheck or halcyon wings

You can either make your own, or order some spring ($2 a foot) from Mcmaster Karr and make your own, or you can just go back to a regular strap. Personally, I love my spring straps, and would NEVER go back to regular rubber straps

Ok, that's good to hear. Sorry to confuse you. I just didn't know if the lens rim was metal or not.

Maui...you can live there in a nice place for a fairly good price. If you don't mind cooking for yourself I know of a REALLY nice place that goes for $65 a night.

looks good....a bit messy, but it looks good. Not to sound like a know-it-all, but keep in mind that if there's any metal underneath that cover while it's underwater, it can corrode, leaving you with a problem

If you want just a nice computer that does downloadable dive logs, bottom timer, nitrox (up to 50% I think ?) I would recommend the Mares M2 for you. (now doesn't that sound like a sales pitch??? :D ) It goes for about $190 from scubatoys.com Hope that helps, Taylor Vicdiver656

I correct that....I did a doubles dive today, and went down to 95 :D

Do not fear :D What he means by the statement "over my lungs" is that the weight of the backplate is displaced over the back. Aluminum backplates are 2 lbs negative while SS backplates are 6 lbs negative. So...you take more weight off your belt, but you also are not having the weight in a...

This is me (yah I know I'm weird) but at home they call them "not getting caught by the octopus thingies"!

To date, my max depth has been 89 FSW.... What am I comfortable to go to??? As deep as I am trained to go. If I'm OW, it'd be 100, maybe 110. If I were Trimix, it would be a lot deeper. It all depends on the training for me

Great pics!! Thanks for sharing them with us!!! Taylor Vicdiver656
