    The BEST Dive Flag Float by MAKO Spearguns

    I own one of these and have been diving with it frequently. I have found that the best way to tow this is with a "bridle" going through the handles and the nose, kind of like a kite. If you just tie it by the nose it will stand on one end in current. If you tie it just by the handles, it will...

    GoPro Dive Housing Thread... Any Leaks?

    Maybe I have been extremely lucky but I have a hero 1 and a 3 and a 4 that have always been stored with the door shut, and they still goes on tech dives without issue. There is no special care involved with a GoPro other than a quick rinse after every dive. I own 3 GoPro's and do a lot (weekly)...

    Scoop on panama (the country)

    I regretfully own property in Bocas and have for many years. The diving there is awful. You will be disappointed. The conditions of the roads, and the infrastructure is awful. The locals are destitute for the most part, the ones that are lucky enough to get a job in town work most of the time...

    Newbie DPV user questions!

    Save your money and get a Submerge Magnus or a Logic Genesis, or equivalent. You want a scooter with a Lithium battery, and on the better DPV's the battery alone will be expensive regardless of the DPV brand. A pool toy scooter is great for one thing - consistent disappointment and stranding...

    New to Nitrox - Do I need to buy an O2 Analyzer?

    I have seen many, many dive shop analyzers that are way out of calibration or have bad sensors or just never work right. Some shops do have analyzers that work great, but you cant count on that. In addition, you never know where you might be getting a fill or renting a filled tank.. I personally...

    Berating an "Instructor" on a dive boat. How should I have handled differently?

    Save your breath for yelling at the numerous fishing boats that will inevitably greet you at the surface being drawn in by the sight of the dive flag. They won't listen to you either but you will possibly feel more satisfied.

    Fourth Element Proteus - hard to put on?

    I own both the 3 and the 5 mil. I find neither of these suits particularly hard to put on as long as you do it one leg at a time. I have been very happy with both of mine. I have never needed anyone to help me suit up though. I just grab the bib pull it over my head and that is really all there...

    Atomic Aquatics Cobalt Dive Computer

    My wife's finally exploded today. Not sure what to say about this. It was rather dramatic. Too bad I just bought a new charger adapter for it too! She really liked this computer. Hope things go well for us with support..

    Tiger Shark checking out Maui Scooter Divers

    When I was in Oahu recently I saw a large Tiger and it's dorsal fin had damage on the trailing edge. Was also told this was a somewhat unusual sighting. Nice video. Sent from my iP

    Lionfish Gear

    Leather gloves will typically crack and peel pretty quickly. Hypodermic syringe needles are the current "gold standard" for testing. It's great that you are taking the initiative to test and would like it if you can keep us all updated with your findings ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
