Soiunds like me....fire from the hip....I suspect you are already beyond so please only lay out your quals....so we can really understand your bull****......apologies in advance if you are not the the **** you seem to be

Normally I used to dive in a semi dry...if HQ let me, at 1c...it was chilly...the regs were Beuchat Icebergs.... It was a 7mm full with a 5mill shorty hood

Scubapros have to be the work horse of most divers stuck out on a limb, looking for tough ***** stuff with easy service possibilities. The 650 I would question, its trying to be a Poseidon and its not. The MK25, a first stage you will find hard to beat. U don't need to bother with the...

I notice a few names cropping up here and there in the ratings and comments....which is always good for divers looking to buy their first rig. I harp on about Beuchat...I am not sorry that I do. I have tried every set up you care to quiz me on.. The Beuchat VX 10 is heavy duty...anything...

oh...you havent breathed a vx 10 at depth then...then you will know the others do actually feel soupy...lol I just ordered 4 Mk25 /S 600 regs....soup adjustment is possible but I will not take those regs in cold water.any more...nice as the are. boogey

300 bar is as safe. if not safer with a DIN fitting, as 232 and I am quite sure that popping a lump of metal in your dome will feel much the same and be going in the same direction at 232 or 300. Personally, all my gear is DIN. Thr great thing is that you can use converters to A clamp but you...

I wasn't questioning. It's clear to me that you're a star on the forum. I asked about the PINs because I got 4 PINs.. 1. the initial 2. o2 analysyer 3. CCR trimix I was wondering if you had the same? B and W...not bothered. Please confirm. boogey

Come bed time I am no longer smoking. If anyone is stopping, has already stopped and wants to join in then can we help each other. Cutting to the chase, do feel free to write to me at work. graham.walker@an.fortisbank.com I have had enough. boogey

I have a question...and a cooment leading up to the question.. I have beuchat iceberg vx 10s.....they are the toughest and best first and seconds aI have ever used, I got them because I used to dive under the ice. I moved to the Caribbean and now I cannot use them because. I have...

Side sling. Chest and waist D rings.

Valves and bands -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I do need some pointers.... Can anyone advise on twiining bands and valves. Back in Europe MDE manifolds out did all others but the other side of the water what are the best. I am...

I do need some pointers.... Can anyone advise on twiining bands and valves. Back in Europe MDE manifolds out did all others but the other side of the water what are the best. I am looking seeking comments and recs for: 1. DIN valves (right angle) 2. Manifolds. 3. Twinning bands...

What are the advantages of a HOG rig? I honestly don't know waht a true HOG rig is, as witnessed by my double bladder redundancy comment. I was used to dry suits and now in warm water, think a redundant bladder is nice on the deeper dives. Apparently the Hogarthian method doesn't like that...

Thanks all... This is a sort of new thing for me. I have dived deep on air but I don't necessarily want to go as deep as I have, in the past, but still do deco dives. Trimix etc will be the next step. I bumped into a like minded instructor that wants to go deco/accelerated deco here in...

clip the spg to hip d ring. I see so many numpties clip it to the opposite side across the chest...excuse being easy to read... clutter where you don;t need it. Have your spg where its easy to grab and read but don't have it banging around your chest where, invariably, the necklace is far...

You lost me there when you mentioned a bungee and an inflator hose... I'm an idiot (applause all round) but please can you tell me what you mean. boogey

Sorry, where are the d rings for your stages? Also, you might wish to consider: 1. SMB. 2. Reel for above. 3. Back up lights (optional but at depth its a toy to keep your mind off the rig). 4. Redundant inflator hose...if that HOG comes with double bladder??? Looks nice though...

Was this post about a rig or a reg?? Do Apeks do rigs? I have Apeks on my stages but replacing them soon. Supposedly cold water regs but free flow city. Not popular but the BEST BEST cold water reg is Beuchat Iceberg VX 10...its heavy but bullet proof. Breathe that on the...

Deutchue International Norm (excuse spelling) DIN. The geographical argument is not really a discussion when it comes to safe practice, in my view. We had to dive steel H valves in Europe,,,all DIN. I am not going OHE with a yoke. So, for me, it is more of a diving safer issue? Joe PADI...

I don't seem to see what type of dry bag you have in your posts above. That makes a big difference. Also you need to think about your undersuit, which I am sure you have as you've bobbed around already. Advice about using the suit for buoyancy compensation, rather than your wing, is like...
