Thanks, I saw that thread, but was hoping there might be a few more users out there...hopefully more people = more complete answer :)

I had a Pinnacle Freedom 2 on order from Dive Right in Scuba, but due to the Pinnacle/Zeagle supply issue, I'm looking at other suits. Mike recommended the Aquasport (a re-branded USIA suit) AquaSport Drysuit - Dive Right In Scuba - Plainfield, IL Has anyone used one of these? I'd be...

Do you know roughly how many long the bulb has been used for? Assuming it's not terribly close to it's end-of-life, would you be willing to entertain $250?

I'm looking at dive lights, and any canister lights except DIY are out of my range. I'm looking for a light that would work well as primary in tropical dives (day/night) with the criteria that it should still be useful in Monterey. I'm hoping for something that could add color to Monterey day...

All of the zipper replacement threads I've seen have been trilams. Is it any harder/easier/different with a neoprene suit?

I was trying to track down the leak in my suit that's been leaving me with a few liters of water in my suit after each dive, and my preliminary test (haven't done a dunk test yet, I just blew the suit up and rubbed soapy water on it) shows that I've got major zipper issues. It looked to me like...

Oh come on Peter, I give all the folks with fancy video/photo equipment a chance to brag with their best and you point me at the generic stuff? Where's the fun in that? But thanks for the google/youtube reminder any how, I passed along a number of clips / links.

I'm trying to convince my girlfriend to dive Lobos with me over NYE. Her only experience with cold water diving has been at Breakwater (low-vis and 1000's of nettles) and monastery (1 good dive, 1 marred by equipment failure) and she's been pretty underwhelmed. Anyone have some good lobos pics...

I was looking at picking up a Freedom 2 (first time new drysuit purchase, upgrading from a 7mm neoprene not-so-drysuit), but wanted to solicit opinions from anyone who's using one. How's it holding up? The Evolution 2's seem to be rock solid, but without the Cordova, is the freedom 2's likely...

For what its worth, I ended up buying the CP9 and my verdict is that the camera itself is junk. The fixed focus makes it really hard to get anything in focus (clear water or not) and the fabled 9MP resolution is a total misnomer. A real 9MP image should be about 5MB. The "9MP" images from the...

I'm getting close to ordering a Freedom 2 from DiveRiteInScuba, but wanted to see if anyone out here was using one. I'd definitely be interested to hear how you like it, but specifically, how is it holding up durability-wise with the conditions out here? I don't want to find out the hard way...

Wow, choices! I have a standard weight belt so hard weights are probably best for me. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I need, but somewhere in the vicinity of 20-24lbs.

Hello, I'm starting to get into Monterey diving, and I'm piecing together my first set of dive gear and have most pieces except for lead. Since lead is lead, I figured I'd see if there's anyone in the peninsula looking to offload some weights. So, if you happen to have a bunch of weights...

Have you tried couchsurfing.com?

I'm looking at buying an Intova CP9 for a trip to Honduras/Roatan. My expectations for the camera (at $100) aren't that high, but I'm wondering if anyone has used one. Is it a total piece of junk, or is there a chance it will shoot some nice dive pictures? Thanks!

Hello, I'm trying to plan a dive trip that hits both Roatan and Utila in only 10-11 days this July. For Utila, it looks like ecomarine will be perfect, but I'm at a loss for who to dive/stay with on Roatan. All of the best deals I've found have been 7-day packages, and I was hoping to split my...
