When you guys take your average depth, are you including the descent portion of the dive? As far as I am aware the Uwatec bottom timers can't be reset once you hit depth, unlike say a UWATEC TEC 2 G in gauge mode, where the average depth can be reset. I am not a DIR diver, but I have been...

Thanks for all the replies guys, I was thinking in terms of OTUs. Yes you are very correct about the profiles not being square, especially here in the northern red sea, where pretty much every dive site extends from just below the surface to anything up to about 800 meters at our deepest walls...

Hi there, There is a question I would like to open up to discussion regarding Nitrox. I am a full time diving instructor and dive guide. For me this means that I do about 50 to 60 dives a month on average. I will normally dive for 6 days during each week and have one dry day, but...

It could well be related to your ears. I would suggest seeing a doctor who specialises in these things. Hope your problem gets resolved! Safe diving

Thanks for posting back but I have since purchased a BARE drysuit, the Scubapro was just one of many options i was looking at. You are correct, no reviews for it anywhere, I'm sure people will thank you for writing the first one! I hope you enjoy diving your new suit!

Loads of thanks to everyone, great responses!

Hi there, Could anyone please tell me what the length of the corrugated hose is on Halcyon wings? Thanks!

Hi there, I am about to buy some gear from Dive Rite, but as I have no access to a Dive Rite dealer I am ordering the gear and will have no chance to see it before I buy. Size will not be an issue as I am not ordering anything size specific, but just wanted to double check that I have all the...

Hi there, I am looking for some advice on undergarmets for a trilaminate drysuit. The suit will be used in temperatures between 20C / 68F and about 24C / 75F. I know these temperatures may not sound cold, but when you consider that I will be diving in them nearly every day, 2 or 3 dives per...

LOL, will let you know how it turns out....;)

Anyone know if there is a list of sharks which are affected by tonic immobility (and which species are not affected)? Any info on the subject would be appreciated.

Is it possible to find the Mimic Octopus (Thaumoctopus Mimicus) in the Red Sea? Because there have been a few reports of them being sighted in Sharm El Sheikh. They look the same as the photos I have been able to find of the Mimic Octopus in the Western Pacific. I saw one the other day doing...

Shark and Yolanda is amazing in the Summer. Well acctually its amazing all year round, but June/July/August is the best. I could dive there a million times and never get bored of it (and I dive there at least twice a week!) Glad you had a good time, when I was working in Mexico (Yucatan) we...

Not a cave diver but still very interesting reading this discussion. I know that some of you have GUE training, don't you guys normally dive in a team of 3? I'm just slightly confused because everyone is talking about them and their buddy, but in a team of 3 where would the 3rd person come into...

Speaking of "inexact science" what you also need to consider is a number of things with regard to the acctual pressure on your body during a dive. You need to be completely horizontal during your entire dive for your whole body to experience the same amount of pressure. A lot of divers spend...

Great photo mate, one of our boats saw a longimanus on the surface in the Amphoras area today!

So you expect people to get certified without the ability to make themselves neutrally buoyant? I think hovering is pretty essential. I mean imagine you stop swimming for a minute to look at something on your dive, how to you expect to maintain your depth in the water, by kicking continuously...

Yeah but then why does the D4 do this differently to the Gekko? What MOD does your Vyper Air display for 21% O2 at 1.4?

Nope.
