I own a ton of gear, and have spent a lot of money on it. The best money I've ever spent and my favorite piece of gear, hands-down, is my drysuit.

Yeah, looks fine to me. I use Mk17s, and I would argue that they have nicer routing than the vaunted Mk25s, but that looks OK to me. I used to use a 22" backup hose on singles and 24" for doubles, but it was too short. Now, I use 24" for singles and 26" for doubles, and it places the reg...

Thanks for the lead. I'll check it out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edited for the forum.

We do, but not on me right now. I'm at home and the list is at the shop. Will get it up later today.

Final inventory and such, near as we can tell: Personal gear stolen: XS AL80 doubles. "Unfinished" finish, 300-bar valves, no jam nuts on the manifold crossover. LP85 tank with 300-bar valve and boot Catalina AL80 with 200-bar valve . Shot-blast finish Scubapro Mk25 with G250s. Primary reg...

Also missing: Mk11 first stage Scubapro 2G wrist-mounted We're starting to think it's three people. Three slap straps, three black-skirt masks, three singles setups, three regulators, etc. Granted, two computers, one doubles setup, among others, but this is odd.

More weirdness: They picked through the wetsuits and grabbed a couple, yet my drysuit was untouched. We're contacting local instructors/shops and seeing if there are tech classes starting soon. We'll see what happens.

And the cave/tech stuff was, for the most part, personally owned. A Halcyon Eclipse 30 was stoen, but it was attached to one of my LP85s as a "display" floor model. Same story for the Evolve 40. It was attached to a set of my wife's AL80 doubles, as a display. They left my fully-assembled...

OK, the stage bottle is not stolen. Other things: My can light was also stolen. Halcyon 9/21, with a DSS scooter thumb loop and SS clip on the right side. Obvious scratches and wear. AL80 natural finish (new) Scubapro X-Tek 30 singles rig with Hog harness (new) Scubapro Cayman reg (new)...

Swampers: I work at the Dive Shop in San Marcos. I'm still reeling, and still inventorying, but it appears we were robbed last night. Might be wrong, but it looks bad right now. A ton of missing stuff was personal gear of staff, but for an initial list: Be on the lookout for anyone selling...

Price drop to $600 for the whole lot.

200-bar, 300-bar, don't care. In need of a rebuild, not an issue. More interested in single valves, but want at least two manifolds. Maybe say, 3-6 single valves. Thermos are just too tall/heavy and I'm sick of it. If there is an alternative to the now out-of-production Halcyon valves...

True enough, but a definite contributing factor was the high-velocity lead poisoning. ---------- Post Merged at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous Post was at 07:51 PM ---------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now, not to delve...

You do realize that as awesome as that scene was, it DID end rather badly for Mr. Montana. ;)

Now, now...we're trying to be all-inclusive good ambassadors for the philosophy and all that. We are not allowed to slag off on any other form of diving, regardless of our personal opinion/experience. Remember the whole fly/honey/vinegar thing? If we treat people all nice and accepting, then...

Just spoke to DUI directly, and they said that in fact, on the FLX special production and signature suits, it CAN be had with either the full-arm or the standard chest overlay. I guess the "standard" models only get the chest overlay. Perfect. Thanks to all who looked.

I try, I try...LOL.

I REALLY think that divers with a solid GUE community, made up of -2 level divers and with instructors thrown in the mix truly have no idea how lucky they are. Seattle, California, NE, Florida, etc. We met a fellow here that was from southern California and was traveling through. He said his...

I currently own a TLS350 and am very happy with it. Within the next year or so, I am planning on getting a second suit and have decided on a Signature FLX Extreme. I would be keeping the TLS as a travel suit. Anyhow, I am also helping a friend configure his first drysuit order. He is getting...

Our little dive group has built relationships with both Bob Sherwood and Doug Mudry, so getting either one to central TX shouldn't be too much hassle. If we can get interested parties to COMMIT to a date, then we can contact one of them, and depending on class size, (both Bob and Doug limit...
