Do your open water before buying the most personal of every piece of gear you'll acquire. You should try lots of them before you buy. Further, your instructor probably won't let you use it for class because of its "unusual" design. You'll be doing buddy drills with people using and learning...

I retract my d$$$k comment, and will say he was foolish.

i wasn't on that trip, but I sure heard about. Man, the balls on that guy. I've never had a bad time with FWC except when I was a kid and they were "Marine Patrol". I thought the officer was busting my balls throwing bugs in his boat. I went off on him. Turned out my "friends" with no ice in...

I don't disagree with you about Ritter being a dick. but I wanted to point out not to be complacent. Lot of red meat speak going on here. I don't see all that much difference between the Ritter video and a disorganized Randy dive with guests Scattered around the bottom several minutes into the...

I'm a fan of sharks, but not a fan of baiting or feeding for reasons others have stated. Complacency is bad. Perhaps our youthful and exuberant friend has never seen this.. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7pjbH5OuBc4 ---------- Post added March 25th, 2014 at 08:30 PM ---------- I see the...

I thought harvesting of lemons in Florida waters was prohibited. Sharks Randy's a friend, but he's hardly worthy of the angelic virtues you seem to want to bestow on him. Remember when a few years ago a blowfish he was molesting took part of a finger.

I use light weight low profile STA's. I use weights on my upper cam strap and the STA keeps everything and where it should be. Particularly when changing tanks over on a rolling boat.

FWIW.. George Burgess' take. FLMNH Ichthyology Department: International Shark Attack File

Hat. Amazon.com: FCS Wet Bucket Surf Hat - Gun Metal - M: Clothing This one rolls up like a pair of socks. Fits in any bc pocket. Even if you're only out there for an hour or two, makes a world of difference.

I don't instabuddy. Made up word I suppose. Now, mind you, I've hooked with many a new face, but not before some sort of vetting process. No offense intended, but my pony and I might dive same ocean with ya.

Wow. So far off the mark, sheesh. I suppose I should be glad it took all of 20 some posts for one of these comments to appear. Lol.

I use an Uwatec Galileo Sol. Lots of features, but more important to me is the large face and multiple displays where I can enlarge those portions most important to me. Very expensive though. I got mine through a Scubapro promotion for about 1/2 price. Like Tammy, I carry an spg as well as a...

Would that back up system include another ("not life support") regulator?

Buoyancy, not weight IMO. I think for a pony you want aluminum. Not so negative as steel. ~Luxfer or Catalina.

Ola Fellow SoFla. Have fun.

15 years ago, word around the campfire was regs should be Scubapro, computers should be Oceanic/Aeries (Pelagic) and BC's Seaquest. Today, however, after 40 years the one constant has always been baseball. Crap, I mean Scubapro regulators.

Not sure where to post this, but my nephew is graduating in a couple months. I wanted to get him one of those backward facing ball caps, only scuba related. I've checked local shops and on line. Every scuba related cap I found has the bill facing forward. Any info on other sources will be...

Wow guys, I always assumed this was a gimmick. When the local Gander Mtn shut down their dive section, they were giving those Pinnacle suits away. Damn.

Welcome Andrew.

Voo Doo gas.
