    Suggestions on a DIY set-up to not lose my DSLR Ikelite rig?

    Hey folks, I own two Ikelite DSLR rigs - one for a Canon T4i/T5i and one for a Canon 5d Mark III. I have been musing on how to attach a rig to my hand/wrist, so if something happened to me underwater, the rig wouldn't automatically sink away from me. I know Ikelite has lanyards for their...

    northern and SW Fla. diving

    I did the Venice Beach dive about a year ago. I was in the area to film a wedding, so flights/hotel/meals etc. were covered and I had a free day, so I figured why not. I went with Florida West, which was just mentioned in the previous post - they have a good operation, I had no complaints...

    Headed out with Snappa for shark diving this summer - any advice?

    I've got a decent breath hold, enough to stick around and take a few shots at least! But yeah, thanks for the clarification - Charlie was not super clear on how freediving vs scuba was set up, just kept saying that I would have better shark encounters with no tanks involved. Thoughts on how...

    Headed out with Snappa for shark diving this summer - any advice?

    Hey folks, I'm headed out with Capt. Charlie on the Snappa this June for some shark diving! I am pretty excited about it. Just a few questions for those who have gone with him before: -Do I need weights? I'm not bringing a tank, since Charlie advised against it and I figured the man has done...

    Worth using Nitrox for St. Croix diving?

    What species of sharks are there around there? I was planning on not renting a car to save money (had my flights to/from the US and STT covered, so this is a relatively cheap trip), but I do love sharks... My air consumption is very good (not to brag, haha). I'm an athletic guy in his late 20s...

    Worth using Nitrox for St. Croix diving?

    From the local op I spoke to (N2theBlue), the morning boat dives tend to be an 80-90ft site followed by a 50ft (or less) one. Not sure what times they typically run. Sounds like pier dives are in the range of 25-40ft. Those would be on my own, so the time and depth would really be up to me...

    Diving in New Hampshire?

    Hey folks, I am moving to New Hampshire at the end of the month for a new job (at Dartmouth College in Hanover), so I'm curious about what kind of diving is there in New Hampshire. I imagine it's mainly lakes and quarries, plus some open ocean off of NH's coast, but any specific information...

    Is it worth bringing all my own dive gear to Australia?

    My kit's fairly standard - my Zeagle is a little different from your standard rental BCD, but obviously not to the same extent as a true BP/W, and otherwise nothing too different. Thank you very much to everybody who responded - I know posting questions on SB will give me a nice range of...

    Is it worth bringing all my own dive gear to Australia?

    Hey folks, Been giving some serious thought to a three week trip to Australia in late August next year. I would definitely want to dive one of those weeklong GBR/Coral Sea expeditions with Spirit of Freedom or Mike's Ball, but the other two weeks would consist of terrestrial adventures...

    Suggestions On Cleaning Inside Of Dome Port?

    I own the Ikelite Modular 8" Dome Port. I was looking it over today (have a trip coming up) and noticed a lot of dust and other particles on the inside of the port. Any suggestions on how best to clean it? I don't want to scratch it or anything.
