    What's your SurfGF and how does it compare to your (Rec) GFHi?

    Looking for help for person scared by Discover Scuba experience

    Why do people always want to get their spouses/gfs into the hobbies they like? I enjoy going on vacation, getting up early to dive, while the wife and kid enjoy sleeping late. I look forward to ending the dive and getting back to them in time for brunch.

    Octopus Fight!

    Why did you ruin his video!?!?! :D I have great shots of Goliath groupers in florida during the seasonal aggregation. Everyone of those videos is pretty much useless because of the strobes of photographers who think they are the only person on the dive. My best videos are reef creatures I've...

    Octopus Fight!

    Great video! One thing I really hate is when I'm filming something with my gopro and every other diver has their lights and strobes ruining the shot.

    The pockets i bought match the whole mares xr system. They replace the triglide at the bottom sides of the backplate with integrated triglides so that the pockets, webbing, and backplate are mated together and the pockets wont move at all.
