I have mixed gear on ocassion. The biggest problem I have seen is that sometimes the fitting the hose doesn't always match up with the surface of the 1st stage. This can sometimes result in the O-ring not being trapped properly and lead to leaks or outright O-ring failure. Of course, there...

What would you guys say is the BP/Wings set up that offers the most quality features for the least investment?

I have to agree with Tooth that the SeaCure has been great for me also. The "gagging issue" is easily resolved by simply trimming the mouthpiece so it doesn't stick back so far into your mouth. The worst purchase I have made was a SP AirII. However, it wasn't too bad in the end. I bought it...

Where was your camera, ChasingRichard? :rofL:

It sounds like either the spring is weak or there's something up with the seal. If it's been taken apart and serviced then it makes sense to me that it might be defective. Were it mine, I would have simply taken it apart at home and applied a small amount of silicon grease to the edge of the...

pentiumchic, I have to agree with the various posters who pointed out that good training is far more than just "book learning". It involves skill development and mastery. Just sitting in on your hubby's classes isn't enough to consider yourself to have been trained. If that's all it took then...

I'd just use a camel-pack (or similar hydration pack), if it were me. You could just remove your reg and take a sip when needed. Not only that, but a simple camel-pack is only about $40 and you can use it for other stuff as well. I got a Blackburn Hydro-Pack from CampMor for $18 or so. It's ugly...

Who would that be, Unc? The Halcyon of which you spoke? :confused:

I am thinking about switching from a jacket BCD to a BP&Wing and I have a few questions. As a rec diver, what advantages would a BP offer me over a BCD? What are the things that make Deep Outdoors better than OMS, Dive Rite, etc? Thanks

When the moon hits your eye Like a big pizza pie That's amore. When an eel bites your hand And that's not what you planned That's a moray. When our habits are strange And our customs deranged That's our mores. When your horse munches straw And the bales total four That's some...

Are these guys EANx compatible? :confused:

I guess I duplicated the very top thread! :rofL:

What's the dumbest thing you ever bought? It might be that thing that seemed like a great deal but when you tried to use it it was crap. Or it might be something that you got on impulse and kicked yourself later. Or maybe something that you bought and then saw it on sale two days later...

Which do you prefer and why?

Phil and Earl wus out ridin 'round in Phil's pick-up, tossin down sum beers. Sudnlee, thar wus this-here po-leese man b'hind'em what had his si-reens goin. Earl says, "Wadrwe gon-do, Pheel?" Phil says, "Jest peel that-thar label off'n yer bottle thar and stick it on yer fur'ed, like this...

A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day. The Russian said, "We were the first in space!" The American said, "We were the first on the moon!" The Blonde said, "So what, we're going to be the first on the sun!" The Russian and the American looked at each other and...

I have dove with him a time or two. Thanks, Txn.

If you're blonde, they need to match your wetsuit. :rofL:
