I was wondering if anyone on here has used weight plates on their BP. I am looking into setting up a single tank rig with a dry suit and LP 95's, and it has become apparent that I am gonna need more weight then I expected. Some of the local dive shops recommended some alternatives, but I...

I have been looking at these suits as well. Most the local shops are pushing Bare TriLams, and they look good, as well, but a bit more on the costs. This'll be my first dry suit, but I want a good one I won't have to replace, and can be used in various envirnments. How do the Bare's, and...

In PG you can score a cheap backpacker room for 600 pesos. The diving prices have slightly raised there but are comparable to Thailand, and you can find great prices if you spend some time shopping. They generally charge for renting equipment (the last time I was in Thailand, they usually did...

Yeah, I am moving over. I am from Oregon, but looking to get a place in Vancouver WA. I wanna make regualr trips up to the Seattle area for diving. I have never been diving over there, so I am trying to get it all together now, and just figure out how to set myself up. I'm still several months...

I'm looking for a Halycon SMB in the U.S. For some reason I am having a hard time locating one online. Does anyone know a distributer online where I may be able to find one? Thanx

Coco Beach is a bit far from the nightlife area. If you wanna party hard find a place in Sabang or The Lagunas. Steps and Gardens / La Laguna / El Galleon / Mermaids are all nice places to stay. Honestly you can find some great places on the water by just walking around and asking. Coco...

Do you think divers who haven't been over to Thailand think dive shops over there are professional after reading these threads? Don't get me wrong I have had a laugh over here a few times, but I think for how many views there are on these threads it will undoubtedly tarnish the reputation of...

If I had to break it down it it would be recreational diving, military, or commercial diving. I would put instructors in commerical diving, because you don't need to be a commerical diver to be an instructor. I'd put them into the recreational diver group. For example, IMO recreational...

I think this statement hit the nail on the head. It is a title, which people collect the same way they collect cert. cards. In reality it doesn't make any difference. If it isn't commerical it's for fun (Recreation)
