    Prescription lens question

    Gang, I have a new dive computer that has so much info, the numbers are much smaller then the non-tech version. I have a little bit of difficulty seeing them underwater. I bought a new dive mask big eyer style with prescription quality halfpieces installed in the lower portion, which happen...

    Getting GF into diving

    If you push her, it can alienate her......I suggest going to a tropical resort and let her see all the other people including women having a great dive time...make sure she is within earshot of their conversations gushing about how interesting it is. Next time you have a romatic moment, maybe...

    Diving with men

    Dogs are wonderful companions......they have traits in them that we wish more of our human companions had....they are devoted to us unconditionally, they are loyal, protective at their own risk, they are intelligent, yet in some ways still very dependant upon us...they never make demands upon...

    what do you wear under...under your drysuit?

    I don't understand why there is a need to wear anything under one's drysuit undergarment. It just doesn't seem to serve any purpose.

    Diving with men

    There are reasons why guys like dogs and women like cats.....both are like ourselves....Women like cats because cats are like women-cats have this attitude like; "If you are lucky, I might let you scratch me" as if the cat is doing us a favor.....guys like dogs because we wish more women were...

    Shaving and Diving

    As long as there is a significant differential between your hair color and skin color, stop shaving and try laser.....works wonders, no stubble, is smooth as can be, there are no unsightly red bumps, is inexpensive and is permanent....

    Favorite SoCal boat

    I have always liked the Peace as they used to give me 3500 psi fills till I switched to a rebreather.....The crew was always good and the food good.... Vision is a nice boat...I like the dryer for my undergarment...that means drysuit insulating undergarment, not lingerie in case any of you...

    aftermarket inspiration manifold

    I know it was only supposed to be a weight, but I use this bar in an unauthorized fashion as a gas manifold for my turtle. Keep in mind the female threaded ports on the back of this weight inadvertantly match the original fiberglass turtle shell hole spacing dimensions, but do not match the new...

    New Inspiration scrubber.HUD & integrated controller

    I figured anyone who dives CCR was techy enough to know that C02 wasn't directly measured, but the thermal gradient within the stack was being monitored via an axial thermistor. Cliff only mentioned the scrubber had a larger capacity. That could mean 1 ounce, though, lol. No specs yet. It...

    Changing to dry clothes after a dive

    When I travel to Germany and stay in their better hotels with saunas I notice people come in and out of saunas nude and they don't make an issue out of it. If I need to change I change, and I don't concern myself with what others think. They are free to admire or act shocked. If people are...

    Neoprene Counterlung, whats the big deal?

    One of the things I have noticed is it seems as if the abrasive cordura sides of my factory counterlung rub thge crap out of the side of my neck, which does not bode well for tropical diving. It would seem neoprene would be softer, but what about the strength, such as overinflation..do they...

    Inspiration integrated handsets

    Can anyone shed any light on the Inspiration handsest with integrated computers AP is supposed to be working on? I hear they are wrist mounted, which means clutter on my wrist I don't want.....but maybe they can dangle like the existing controllers....not sure.....

    Backplates for the Inspiration?

    I picked up a backplate from Rusty Berry at Scuba Schools of America in Montclair, California. I hate much weights on my hips, as it puts weight low when it needs to be up higher. I aldredy have the backplate on with 8 lbs up top.....10 may be better, that way I can take 2 more off the...
