    Scuba boots

    Look at a pair of Seac Pro HD boots, there 6mm though, you can get them on Amazon. I have a pair of their Basic HD boots from Amazon and really like them https://b2b.seacusa.com/seacsub/144/scuba-neoprene-gloves-socks-and-hoods/0210007/pro-hd.html

    Travel BCD advice

    I would look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite BCD. It has a soft backplate, so it will pack better than a rigid metal backplate. Hydro Lite BCD - Dive Rite

    BC Service availability while on vacation

    I would look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite. Dive Rite has been in business for a very long time, they make good quality gear and have a huge world wide dealer network. https://www.diverite.com/products/wings/hydro-lite-bcd/

    Avanti Quatro V Old SP Supernova

    They look like they have a lot of unnecessary gimmicks built into their construction. Stick with the tried & true Quattro's.

    Recommendation needed for daughter

    I would go with the Dive Rite Hydro lite, it looks a lot less bulky than the Hog and Dive Rite have been around forever, make quality gear and have a big dealer network. The only thing I might do is change the bottom velcro tank strap for a proper one. I was looking at the Dive Rite as a travel...

    Question Sub Gravity Paragon single tank set up

    I have a Sub Gravity 3mm backplate, 26 lb wing, adjustable harness and drop down small weight pockets for my travel BP/W. I can't say enough good things about the gear or the company. I really love their adjustable harness.

    Tusa Hyflex V Mares Avanti

    My first pair of fins were Tusa open heel fins and the blades went soft. Mares Avanti Quattro + fins, they are the best all around fins and have been around for a long time with no gimmicks, just a straight forward good fin. I have been diving mine for about 20 years.

    Travel BCD

    As I mentioned in my first post, it's a pretty big & bulky BC for a travel BC but the biggest issue is that a 45 to 55 wing is way to big for single tank diving. The wing will "taco" around your tank and trap air. The biggest wing you will need for single tank diving is 30 lb. My travel BC is a...

    Travel BCD

    Any amount of money is too much if it's not the proper BC for your needs. You won't be happy diving with it.

    This would be a good time to start an updated thread about what CO testers are currently available and which ones are best suited for testing scuba tanks.

    Travel BCD

    Whether you talking about the Dive Rite or the Deep Outdoors, you said in mint condition, which I assume means used. If that's the case it's way to much money for a used BC. If you are talking about the Dive Rite, they have been in business for a very long time and make high quality gear. The...

    Travel BCD

    That's a lot of BC and the wing (45to 55lbs) is way too big for single tank diving. The biggest wing you need for single tank diving is 30 lb. Look at the Dive Rite Hydro Lite BCD, it's a true travel BC. https://www.diverite.com/products/wings/hydro-lite-bcd/

    XS Scuba Aluminium Travel Plate?

    It looks like most wings aren't compatible with it, definitely not ones with built in tank stabilizers. https://www.subseasports.com/sample

    Question Packing a backplate for travel

    I never take my harness or wing off my back-plate for travel. I have the Sub Gravity adjustable harness and it has never caused any problems or been damaged. I fold the arms or legs of my wetsuit between the back-plate and wing. I pack it on top now because my dive bag has been checked by CBSA 2...

    XS Scuba Aluminium Travel Plate?

    They are usually very good about responding to emails. I just looked and there are 12 Sub Gravity dealers within 80 miles of Los Angeles, maybe reach out to them to see if they have any in stock. If your in a rush, I can check to see if my guy has one?
