    Waterproof D7 Pro ISS glove/seal compatibility

    As far as I know, Waterproof factory installs the Si-Tech's QCS Oval wrist ring system and one of Si-Tech's integrated neck ring systems (Necktight or Quick Neck ring system)....the difference is that Waterproof has their own brand of neck and wrist seals. I have sets of both Si-Tech and...

    Seaskin Sanity Check

    It is not the sitec ovals...they are not a dry glove system....they are a wrist seal retention system that is also used as a platform for mating a dryglove ring system. What you are actually referring to. Is the sitec Antares dryglove ring system which was designed to integrate with the qcs...

    Seaskin Sanity Check

    The Si-Tech wrist cuff ring systems are made up of the following components: 1. A soft (polyurethane material) ring is glued into the cuff of the suit. This ring is round in shape and is the overall platform for seal and glove retention. 2. A removable hard plastic ring that is pressed into the...

    Seaskin Sanity Check

    There is also the 4th Element Ellipse dryglove ring system that integrates with the suit-side ring of the Si-Tech QCS oval system...it will keep the system oval and works much better than the Antares (which I agree sucks)....the Ellipse ring system functions similar to the Waterproof Ultima DGS...

    Has anyone successfully obtained college credit for PADI courses?

    Sometimes when we want something to be true, we convince ourselves that it is true and we convince ourselves that we see signs of that truth everywhere...despite the contrary reality. I have been a PADI pro (divemaster) for a handful of years, and although I am aware that PADI indicates that one...

    Has anyone successfully obtained college credit for PADI courses?

    You are referencing a professional level industry certification. The OP was hoping his son could get high school/college physical education credit for the PADI courses his son obtained, but apparently did not discuss or coordinate with his son's high school before his son took the PADI courses...

    Has anyone successfully obtained college credit for PADI courses?

    So sorry to read about your troubles but you basically went about this entirely wrong. You will be hard pressed to find a university that will give your son credit for a course he did not take through them (other than transfer credits from other universities)...and the high school your son...

    Sold! SOLD - Diving Magnifying Glass - SOLD

    For 2024 the 1099-K reporting threshold for PayPal was if total "goods and services" payments exceeded $5000. For 2025 the threshold is $2500, and for 2026 the threshold drops to $600. I wouldn't want to pay income tax on personal property sold regardless of how much I sell, but as a buyer, I...

    Sudden Flooding of Ultima Dry Glove

    From the standpoint of casual observation it would seem you are guilty of the same with regards to pullover gloves...just because it is simpler, cheaper, whatever, and doesn't involve rings "does not mean you need to defend it to the death" either. Let's not trip over our own bias while calling...

    Velcro Nightmare - Saving my Henderson Thermoprene Pro

    There is a type of velcro that the hook side will not grab the neoprene, it will only grab the loop side.....if you ate going to take your suit to a seamstress, have them replace the current velcro with some of the stuff I mentioned instead. -Z

    Sudden Flooding of Ultima Dry Glove

    The o-rings mentioned in my post quoted above are not for replacing the red o-rings...they are for replacing the black o-rings that come with the Ultima ring system to retain gloves on the glove-side rings. The red o-rings are sealing the glove-side rings to the suit-side rings. There was a...

    Trying to better identify old regulator set

    If you are only diving once or so a year, then it may be wiser to rent than bring your Mares Ruby setup back to safe usable condition. Contact me by direct message through the board if you are interested in selling your setup...I am interested in the Ruby 2nd stage and might be interested in...

    Trying to better identify old regulator set

    Your 1st stage and primary 2nd stage are a Mares Abyss 22 Ruby. The Ruby model used their SCS type valve in the 1st stage. SCS stands for Spherical Core Seal (sometimes referred to as Spherical Conic Seat) - The Mares Ruby model used a variation of the SCS where the movable part that was...
