But this isn't an OW class. This is a deep specialty class. Where the use of a pony is endorsed, or even encouraged. The course manual doesn't seem to suggest that the use of a pony is a skill set outside the capabilities of a class attendee. Which implies that an instructor should be qble to...

Wow. Someone must have gotten ripped off by the LDS. And passing the loss onto us. Might help if you posted pictures. So we knew if it was the new or old model. Effects the price a bit. How did you get a burst LP hose? Would seem to suggest that the IP was way too high, and the 2nd stages may...

I've never seen anything empirical to support that. My AL legend is plastic and I've never had a freezeup/ freeflow issue on mine, in water as cold as 31.8°F. I keep hearing of it being an issue, but I've never seen anything to support it, and my experience has never shown plastic to have a...

When you say rigged I think rigging up the clips for attachment, but reading it looks like you're asking if folks leave their reg hooked up while they're not diving? I leave mine rigged, but remove my reg set. My regs go in their padded carrying case. Tanks have a bad habit of rolling around in...

I just downloaded the manual and pulled mine apart when I had an issue. Getting over the fear of actual "doing" is normally the biggest hurdle. Between the DIY section here, the manuals available online (reg service manuals for several brands are available for free DL on several sites, luxfer...

Study only compares between air and argon. Helium transmits heat much more effectively than either. Argon is so popular with the tech crowd mainly because so many use a higher helium mix as their backgas. Kinda comparing apples and oranges. If you find a study comparing a...

Interested in selling the backscatter pieces separately?

5 hour energy, vitamin water, powerade, and protein meal replacement bars. Plus lots of water. Be sure and get plenty of electrolytes or you'll find yourself cramping up on later dives. Healthy meals as much as possible. And second the naps...

I ended up gluing on a halcyon exploration pocket. Planning on doing a pool dive this weekend, hoping to try it out. I'm already happier with the glue on. Gluing it on was easier than i thought it would be.

Diagrams are indeed different, but there are a lot of actual full manuals out there for the taking. If he's got a common reg there are a handful of sites that maintain a database of manuals for download for free.

Please don't use silicon. Invest in a packet of oxygen safe lube. A lot of shops stock it, and you can order it online, and it doesn't create a combustion risk if you mess up and lube rings that may see high o2 concentrations. The shop manuals for a lot of regs can be found online for free...

Price too high, or no one interested in this reg?

Interesting pocket design on the WP, but i don't like the back zip, means you always need someone else to zip you up. Have you looked at the hollis? Pockets, hood and self entry. Henderson also makes a nice 8/7 with self entry, but you'd need to add your own pockets. I like mine. I never noticed...

I'll present a scenario... Two buddies on a common wreck in the St. Lawrence river in late spring... Dive buddy team is conducting dive within recreational limits at 120’ when diver 1 begins suffering from narcosis. Diver 1 drops regulator and begins to panic. Diver 2 deploys 7&#8217...

Older model aqualung glacia for sale. Last used in Florida caves in February. Held steady IP pressure, breathed well. Used as my necklace reg so I'd do a check each dive and otherwise leave it as was. Looking for $125 plus actual shipping costs in a flat rate box from an APO. Open to reasonable...

I'm using legends for my doubles. One is an ACD and one is non-ACD. Would like them to both be non ACD. Needs to be DIN. Looking to do a 1-for-1 trade. IP on mine is holding steady at 150, last dove in February with no issues. Only need the first stage. Will trade 1st and 2nd together if it...

Picture isn't working for me...

First webbing i had was, i believe, OMS. It was super stiff. To the point of being uncomfortable. Also meant it restricted my movement, particularly of reaching across my chest, and was near impossible to adjust. One harness has bulk webbing from LDS, other has webbing from DGX. little...
