All right, I'll try once. But I am not going to go down this rabbit hole. These questions have actually been answered many times but maybe just did not sink in. The answer is in the many posts by Tobin. "Size the wing so it can float the rig." Hmm.. If the weight is on the rig, then I'll...

Yet you can't help but air your personal grievance with Tobin. It gets old.

Jim sold me HOG BP/Ws for my son and I. At the time he was 14 and growing. I was 47 and shrinking. Either way the HOG has been a fantastic investment in our diving. I fully expect to keep diving them for years. Jim was great at answering my questions. He assembled everything then called him...

Thanks Lynne. I'd love to take you up on the offer at least to meet more dvers. I live in Issaquah so dive up and down the Sound. Life is over the top crazy right now but would love to contact you and dive. Hopefully mid June things will settle down in life and the vis will improve by then...

Thanks all. It appears that it is going to be a trial and error process. Only want ability to drop to ensure positive buoyancy on surface. As TS&M states " irretrievably positive on the surface" in the event that other events/circumstances prevent me from this otherwise. Regarding...

I have been playing around with the placement of my weights and as I picked up a weight belt I got into a discussion with the shop owner about my weight placement; it got me to thinking that I need more opinions. So here goes.... currently I have a Hog BP/W, 32 lb lift. So my total weight is...

Ooo! Ooo! Pick me:snorkel2: All diving is decompression diving.

I have a problem with lights.... always want to buy another one:no:. The BigBlue VTL 2800 seemed like a perfect light for my needs, right now anyway. 2800 lumens, three levels, can change between 110 degree flood and 10 degree spot, also has red leds. What's not to like? First dive out and...

It doesnt have UV, but did you look at the Big Blue VTl 2800?? Multiple levels, Red 110 degree and spot options. I am impressed with mine and about the same price range.

My son and I both have BP/W since it seemed like a good choice for PNW and Hawaii diving. We were on a boat in December and a diver from Canada asked how we liked our HOGs and he indicated he dives them too. Then saw he was diving sidemount. He indicated that the reason he dove sidemount on a...

Yep. That was us.

I'm going to bet that was me and my son. December? Kona? We chose BP/W as relatively new divers because I grew up with Legos. I really like the fact that it could grow with us as our needs changed and would work very well as is. I liked that I could replace pieces rather than the whole BC if...

I'm going to call you out on this one. The shop is the one assuming the risk of that first fill. If they want to perform a procedure that protects their employees I'm all for it. Does it cost me a few bucks? Sure, everything in diving does. Did I learn a lesson? Sure. I just chalk that...

Since you quoted me I have to assume it was directed at me. I must also assume you did not read my posts.

Here's what I learned today: I think I deal with a very honest shop and will continue to support them as a customer. Why do you ask?? The shop has both banked 32% and they have a significant rebreather clientele so PP filling is used too. They will mix whatever you like. When I stopped...

Tank came plugged, but I took the plug out to place the cylinder. Dont know if the shop would have approached it any differently if i just handed them the plugged tanks and loose valves. I just talked to the shop again and they indicated that since the valves had been off a new O2 clean was...
