Weird. I could have sworn I put a link there before posting.

ScubaForce has a US distributor.

Doesn't surprise me. I watched a photographer laying on top of the reef to take a photo of a turtle, while the foreign female dive guide was waving her flashlight around like a crackhead to get everyone's attention so they could do the same. BTW, if you're the fat foreign female dive guide with...

Have you ever tried to cut steel fishing leader? Or the hull of a boat? Or copper wiring? Or any of the myriad of things that might be entangling you that are "un-cuttable?" Entanglement hazards are very real, and very deadly. People die getting entangled in kelp, a freaking plant. Having the...

DSS Long on the second hand market is gonna be your best bet. I'm only 5'11" but I prefer it to a standard size.

Cheap. 7kg carry-on, everything else they charge you for. I flew Sing>KL and it was fine. It's nothing special at all. It's a cheap asian airline just like all the other cheap asian airlines. It's a known quantity, and all that implies.

I've had interactions with both the antagonist and protagonist in this thread. I'll let everyone else guess which is which.

Assuming single tank wing, you can’t go wrong with any of those. Additionally, you can add VDH, and shouldn’t disregard Oxycheq. Their 18lb Mach V wing is my single tank wing of choice. However, I would probably go with VDH if I didn’t already have my Oxycheq. I know nothing about their customer...

If you want the strength and abrasion resistance, just snag a bulk spool of this and put it on either a large spool or a reel. DGX Hi-Viz Yellow Dacron Line Loaded on Bulk Spools | Dive Gear Express®

Onboard BOV is silly if you're running a 3L bottle. It's a good way to breathe yourself out of required gas.

Please clarify stack. Smoke stack? Stack of magazines? Stack of bricks? Did you say stack but what you really meant was pile? We had a smoke stack in town. They blew it up after the smelter closed. Ostensibly, it went from a stack to a pile in very short order.

I mean, if you're just giving them away I'll take one!!!!

Your weighting should not be based on your ability to descend at the end of a dive with gas in your tank. You want to weight yourself so that you can hold a (safety) stop without gas in your wing. So basically, with an empty wing, you can hover at 5m/15ft, with 35bar/500psi left in your...

I was just too late jumping on Forrests. I don't even really have the desire to own one, other than to pick one up to play around with.

I should have been more clear. They're not getting people hurt by bending them. They're doing whatever deco or they're doing whatever deco then SurD, and it looks nothing like a recreational deco profile. I hate the term "bend and mend." It implies something that it's not.

Not to mention the military and commercial divers tend not to bend people on a regular basis. Benefits of having chambers on board and running SurD deco schedules.

Sorry, I completely forgot about this. Call it $10 for shipping and I'll cover anything over that.

It's too bad their website sucks. It wants to charge me VAT on those things even though they'd be coming to the US. They can only do ex-VAT sales to a company. Which is stupid. Which means I'd pay tax twice. Which is doubly stupid. I may just make some myself.

Why even bother with flex at all? They're demonstrably inferior, more expensive, and a solution to a problem that doesn't exist.

Total ******** on just that one? Dude is a dumpster fire that should be banned like Ross.
