Basically, If I was to deliberately burley for sharks (specifically GWS or Tigers) for the sole purpose of being in the water with them and to photograph and watch them off stradbroke island (not in a green zone or near recognized and frequented diving areas, or near beaches) are there any...

Fair point, however I'm not here comparing the intelligence of dolphins to that of 'domesticated' farm animals, but highlighting the ignorance of man to think that we can simply draw a line between smart and simple minded animals and this somehow excuses us from the barbaric treatment we force...

How is the dolphin slaughter in japan and denmark any different to the digusting treatment, inhumane living conditions and horrible deaths that pigs, cows and chickens go through there entire lives while they are being specifically bred and raised for our consumption? I'm not saying what is...

Trying out different equipment first is definitely a great idea. Just as a comparison for when you shop around My bp/w is a single 30lb wing with a ally backplate from adreno in wollonggabba an it cost me $350. -Mike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey mate, Personally I would hold off on buying regs till you've had a few dives under your belt. I bought regs as soon as i started and within 6 months realised that i wanted something else (ended up getting hog regs). I too am looking at diving tech in the next few years but i'm holding off...

Hey everyone, Please note: The following comments are purely to gain information and to fulfill my curiosity so please don't go biting my head off. So here goes: Would shark chumming in QLD (not in any marine sanctuary or green zone) violate any laws/ would I be in the s*** if I was to do so...

Hey dave Sorry mate cant make it tomorrow :( have a great dive though!

I meant not as effective and powerful (frog kick and 360's) as with paddle fins.

Definelty trying that next dive. Any success?

Ever tried frog kicks, back kick or turning 360 on the spot with split fins? Nearly impossible. I love my Apollo Bio-Fins Pro Split but after using a mates OMS Jetstreams and feeling how much more control and 'precision positioning', I have ditched the split fins for wreck diving and am...

STA not really required but it does help take some weight off your belt. I bought an Ally plate but wish I had gone with a Steely. I dive singles too. My buddy has a steel an only carries 2lb on his belt.

I did a dive at Byron Bay where a DM cut someones reef hook off the anchor line. Her excuse was 'its banned so its okay for me to do that'. I agree that a well placed reef hook does have a lot of benefit as divers will still have an anchor line to hold onto instead of damaging reef.

All of the above!

BP/W are appropriate for ALL types of diving!!

Did you forget to read this???

I am both a traveling warm water diver and warm water diving is my norm. BP/W works fine for me. It's all down to preference mate.

Definitely agree with you there flots. When your paying a difference of a few hundred dollars for second stages and an octo you'd think that would be clear enough........

Amazing video. Good work on helping out that Manta.

+1. Cant stand the HOG el cheapo mouthpieces and swapped it the day I bought my reg.
