The Ultimas fit the oval ring. To don and doff I put the lower portion of the ring on then rest it against my chest to hold it. I then grab the top of the ring and press them together. To take them apart I do the opposite. Press the lower edge of ring in my chest, pull the upper portion...

Only in the summer to help with getting the seal over the sweat on my arms. In the winter I just stretch them out and force my arm in.

I use a food grade silicone spray in the summer.

The no seals is key to no liner. It allows the warm air in your suit to freely move around. That is what keeps your hands warm.

I dive the 720's to 50 degrees with no liners. Below that I'll wear a liner. They do not transfer temperature like rubber or pvc. They are also more puncture, tear, and abrasive resistant that the others. Over 250 dives on my 720's, not a single issue. That speaks for itself because I am not...

Yes, but the tool is not needed. I haven't used a rubber or pvc glove in over 2 years. I use nitrile gloves which you can not mount to the Antaries system. Specifically the showa 720r. I also have so much faith in the Ultima system that I have not used a wrist seal on my suit since I have...

They leaked about 10% of the time. It's like comparing a paper airplane to a Boeing. With the Ultima rings you can utilize any glove you choose, not some crap pvc blue smurf glove. My Ultima rings have leaked 0% of the time. No tabs to line up, no worry about reaching and having a glove come...

I had a good laugh over this. I used to use the Antaries as well. Once I switched to the Ultima system there was no going back. A 3 year old is smarter than the Ultima system. No alignment, no twisting, no struggle, and above all no leaks. I can put them on and take them off blindfolded and...

The benefit of the silicone over latex is the stretchiness. Stretch the seal over a yeti turned upside down. Cut 3 rings to start and work from there. I would usually suggest 1 ring at a time until you get a comfortable fit. In your case I'd estimate you will probably end up taking 5 or 6 rings...

Suit was used as a backup for the last 4 years. In my ownership the suit has 6 dives. Leak tested in 2018 and not used since. Has soft neoprene boots size 9 men's (pretty tight fitting so could fit up or down a size). Suit is believed to be a woman's size medium. See photos for approximate...

Suit was used as a backup for the last 4 years. I approximate the size as a large short. See photos for approximate dimensions. Has zip neck and wrist. Boots are a size 9.5 mens. Brass zipper. Last dive was 3 weeks ago (Feb. 2020), suit did not leak at that time. Believe the suit to be...

If you plan to diy the DIN fitting on yourself, you first must remove the yoke retaining nut. If my memory serves me correctly it is a 1 inch socket. But not any old socket. It must be a low profile one. (I cut a standard 3/8 drive one down) or in a pinch, a large adjustable wrench. Other...

Assuming you have the appropriate amount of lift... Get fully dressed, tank and all. Get in the water. Start adding weight until you have enough to just start to sink. Then add 7 more pounds (this compensates for the air lost in the tank during the dive). Or do a site search, there is a...

When diving single tank all your hoses route normally. You leave the 1st stage mounted vertically. In a doubles configuration you would typically turn it sideways to aid in hose routing. This is done as the hoses cross in the back. Hose Routing for MK17?

4 wheels that transport my Bedrug around. Although it only moves it at 13 to 15 mpg. The bedrug is probably the greatest investment I ever made in diving. Extremely comfortable to kneel, sit, sleep, and change on. Very soft and impervious to bleach, and fuels. I can clean it with a pressure...

Fixed it for ya.
