Thanks for commenting. I'm pretty confident after seeing these comments here to buy set. Aren't the attachments for the weight pockets already included in there? Those pads?

Really interesting discussing, keep it going. I've read it before but this sounds like the Self Reliant/Solo diver course is really a great course, even if you don't plan on diving solo.

Yeah thanks, it's definitely something to look into, didn't know it was that hard, maybe I'll try it one day for fun. Is an smb sufficient to help you get up or do you really need a lift bag for it? Also is this something divers usually are prepared for? Because no one ever told me this...

Yeah, I think so at least. Never tried, is there any particular reason why someone wouldn't be able to swim this rig up? Actually never even though about this possibility but I'm a pretty fit guy and to be honest most divers I see aren't even near my level of physical fitness.

Okay, maybe it's the newbies reflex like more is better? I hope I don't need to go thrue the hassle of getting the shop to adapt the package /change the battery with a bigger one, but if it is needed I think either the WTX4 or the WTX-D40 would the best options. They seem fairly equal, anyone...

Hi there, I have been searching for a general rule to decide how much lift capacity I need but I just can really wrap my head around it. I'm interested in buying this set Apeks Single Cylinder Tek Set It's a pretty good price considering what all the pieces (regulator set + bp/w) cost...

Hi, I've seen some video's recently where people use a different style of hose routing than is teached to beginners by the likes of Padi and SSI. I saw this setup being used by cave divers and people who use double tanks in general. For some reason this setup got my attention because it made...

Let him die? :D

Very nice report to read, sir. Keep them coming. With reports like these you only need to check scubaboard to decide which trip you wanna take :D Ps: I hope you told the captain/staff about the eggs? I'm certain a captain/staff like you described, a staff going all out to please there guest...

If you want ditchable weights just make some sort of ditch system and strap it to your shoulderstraps... Should be to hard to find/make a good ditching system?

Is it from the water or is it from your suit(s)? There're quite a lot of people with some kind of allergy for neopreen. Maybe you could try to dive another wetsuit made of another fabric?

I hope you don't mind me asking but can I ask why you selling all this gear? Looks like you're quiting? What a pity to get rid of such a nice collection ..

Yeah exactly, the only reason for me to take the AOWC with SSI is because I felt that 4 open water dives, of which 3 dives are really just practicing skill, are not even remote enough to be competent diver. My girlfriend and I did our OW in tenerife, our first time diving in The Netherlands...

Thank you very much, sir. Exactly the kind of replies/advice I was hoping to get. I'll will be diving plenty the coming months and I aim to maybe do every month or every so much dives (maybe something like 30, 40 dives) a specialty course of one or another kind with one or another agency aiming...

I agree fully and I don't have any negative experiences with those airlines either, I never fly with them ;) But for me a country's development classification is something to consider in choosing airlines. Simply due to the fact that lots of times the regulations or at least the...

Well, there you go, you posted something imformative. With this I can do something. Well, it makes sense you exercise what you learned before learning new stuff. As mentioned I don't plan on doing course after course after course, I'm planning to do some specialties in between (fun)diving. One...

Really? I'm trying to not be rude but did you read any of my writing?.... Nice that you have 55 dives, that you're doing Rescue in two months and that you're going to do 'a few more specialties' but is this the contribution you wanna make? You don't even elaborate on what specialties you're...

Hi there, As some might know by now I'm a novice diver who's busy getting my AOWC from SSI, the specialties I do are Deep Diving, Underwater Navigation, Peak Buoyancy Control and Nitrox. Besides the courses I've been diving every weekend since I got my Padi Open Water. I like diving but I like...

You might be right but I'm not someone to favor service & food over safety. Would be nice to have a last decent meal yeah but I'd rather eat bad and live to tell :D Might be my bad if you guys are just talking about service/food but I really wasn't talking about service or food, only things I'm...
