Texas Dive Show

[austinspace]

I'm planning to go too. To be sure, I called the Airport Hilton and they confirmed that the dive show is taking place there this weekend.

This link incorrectly says Convention center: Texas Dive Show Moves to Austin in 2012 : DiveShow.tv

The dive show site says Airport Hilton: Texas Dive Show

it may be small but maybe if enough show up...it will come back bigger....I think it should be supported I cannot recall a dive show even being here ever but then I have only lived in the area 16 years...I supported Seaspace when it was alive and several dive shows in the DFW area....and have even been to Our World Underwater in Chicago....if no one goes why would they want to come back....I will be there with a couple of friends...hope to see some familiar faces

If they would have kept it in Dallas like it was originally planned then I could have made the time to stop in regardless of the size and number of vendors attending. I hope it continues to grow in the years to come that way it can eventually be worth my time to travel and set aside a weekend to attend. I hope that it's a success!!!

when I went to the Houston show a couple of years back Brad said they wanted to move it around to different cities from year to year...not sure if that is the plan for the future

Hi Brad,
Thanks for the list of events. With regard to the rebreathers... Which unit/s will be available for demo?
Thanks,
David

I read there will be 4 Rebreather manufacturers exhibiting: KISS, Poseidon, Titan, & Silent Diving.

I'm guessing Poseidon will be demo'ing.. Curious about the others.. Know any info on that, Miss-E?

I won't be able to make it to Austin. It is a bit far for a dive show. We went to the show last year in Irving. It was good to see the vendors and some friends.
If they bring it back to the DFW area we will definitely go.
