I just got mine earlier this week, threaded the harness on the BP today and put the Travel wing on it. It looks great, it feels like its good quality, BUT I haven't been diving with it yet. I need it to get a little warmer before thats going to happen.

Colliam, I haven't seen BP/W for sale anywhere around here. Everything just seems to be jacket BCs.

Haha, some good smartass replies here. How do people survive a Monday at work without sarcasm? I wouldn't dare attempt. And, I'm a nice guy, I'd love to buy you all what you want...but I work in education, so lets not overestimate my purchasing power here. Awap: Scubatoys price matches...

I'm planning to spend part of my tax return on getting my first BP/W setup. However, its a bad economy so I want to make the money go as far as possible (hello online vendors). After reading SB a ton for the past while, I've decided I'm definitely going SS BP with the 30 lb Travel wing from...

Here's a great article about Dave Shaw that I remember reading a long time ago, before I was a diver, that made an impression on me.

Well, I went to Lowe's today and picked up a set of SAE hex wrenches that, like someone suggested, fold out like a Swiss Army Knife. I figure that can be easily thrown into my reg. bag and could be handy for any last-minute switches necessary. I already have a good adjustable wrench. With the...

Martzak, I'll try to remember that in the future for gear purchases. Thanks for the tip.

KG, rstofer, and Herman, so I can get the tools I need at a Lowe's Hardware? If that's the case, I wouldn't mind going ahead and investing in them so I will have them in the future, in case I want to upgrade my SPG or something. Since graduating college, I've been trying to accumulate a good set...

BDSC, I actually went by Water World today to look for wetsuit hangers. I left mine on a cruise ship months ago. The guy that was working was very polite and helpful, not pushy like I've seen in other LDS. I took his card and was looking at their website, maybe doing AOW with them when I have...

So, after reading a lot of threads and reviews and having experienced Sherwood regulators in my OW class, certification dives, on a charter boat in Cozumel, and then renting a few times, I bought a Sherwood regulator package off of LeisurePro. The price was good and I had some post-holiday money...

This year for spring break I went on a cruise (Carnival) with some friends. I was the only diver, and I looked at the official cruise line diving excursions, but after recommendations from others, booked my own diving with a smaller op in Coz. (Scuba with Allison) It was easy to get from the...

I'll be diving with Alison, of Diving with Alison, on March 27th. Anyone else going to be with her that morning?

Haha. I work at a high school for the "intellectually gifted" so I'm sure few would even find this behavior odd. Thanks for the input everybody, I'm going to try going underwater in my bathtub.

Tonight is my first class for my NAUI certification (Christmas present from my parents) and last week I went to the dive shop to set up my class schedule and shop for fins/mask/snorkel. I ended up going with the Oceanic Shadow mask (fit my face well and I wanted to go frameless). So in the...
