I need a custom size I think. I am all over the chart after just measuring and seeing what will fit. I am going to pull the trigger on a custom CLX450 I think.
I am not 100% sure on this. I am going to go get measured tomorrow. I am 5 10 and 230 so I think xl or xxl
If I had a dry suit I would do the same dives yes. I might dive more often though because I would be warm. hahaha. I am warm in a wetsuit but getting back in the water after the first...
How many dives a month do you need to do to justify a dry suit? I am really thinking about one but the price tag has me thinking about not doing it. I know the pros of it and they sound great but I can get a lot of wet suits for the price of the dry suit I am looking at. I dive in a wet suit now...
This is what I am looking for. Thank you for asking the questions and pointing out the info you did. My last computer was the luna with a transmitter and it was a good computer. Just trying to figure out what set up to go with next and why.
I asked this question because the Petrel has such good reviews. I will never tech diver or use tri mix. I am a recreational diver that uses air right now but will be changing over to nitrox. I get that the Petrel is an amazing computer and is the best at what it does but is it necessary for what...
Why a Petrel vs. Something less expensive? The Petrel doesn't have AI or a compass so why spend all that money. You find a computer that does nitrox for much less than $900. I am asking because I am shopping for new gear.
The above post was the original post but I feel I should ask this...
If you had a chance to buy all new gear what would you buy. When I say all new gear I mean everything. All my gear was stolen and insurance is paying for new stuff and I am curious to see different opinions on this. Would you go wet or dry suit, jacket BC or backplate and wing? what reg set up...
Please keep an eye out for my gear that was just stolen.
MK25/S600 with a luna transmitter on it and a Aqualung octo. Serial # 1214303610
Luna dive computer with less than 10 dives on it. Serial # 131190025333
Freedom contour backplate with red webbing and hog wing with red trim.
If you see...
There was no need to fix it for me. I am an insurance agent and your gear is your personal property. Personal property is covered in a home or renters insurance policy unless you use the gear for professional work. then you would be covered under you business personal property policy.
Home owners insurance will cover your gear and so will renters insurance if you do not own a home. I had all of my gear stolen last year and Safeco wrote me a check a week later. It will even cover it when our gear is in the car when you go inside to eat after a dive!
Thanks for all the input guys. I have 2 of the lp 95 right now and I have good dive times with them. They do not have the + rating but I do get them over filled depending on who does the fill. I like the trim I have with them I just think they are so freaking heavy on shore. Looks like I will...
What would the advantages to one over the other be? I know the HP holds more air but other than that why would you get one over the other one?
On land weight?
buoyance?
anything you know about the 2 would be helpful.
Right now I have LP95 but I may want to change depending on the benefits...
