    Hollis Regulators - Specs - Details

    Hi Nick, Is there a difference between the DC1 & DC2 other than the swivel turret first stage? What would the benefits be to having one over the other? Comparing the EOS (Oceanic's professed top of the line reg) to the DC1 or DC2 of Hollis, understanding they are virtually one of the same...

    Hollis Regulators - Specs - Details

    I'm looking for serious details on the specs of Hollis regulators. The website is quite vague and doesn't offer much in representation. Does anyone know where I might find more thorough information? I'm a technical person by nature and wish to lay to rest the fluff like, "breath with...

    PADI ? The right path....

    It doesn't really matter the agency, it all boils down to the instructor. It's important to get recommendations for instructors from others because (1) you are paying for someone to teach you skills you may need in life or death situations and (2) you can't trust just any schmuck trying to make...

    Nassau trip report August 9 - 15

    Great review! Thanks for sharing. My girlfriend and I will be staying at the Orange Hill January 9th through the 18th. I look forward to it. It's been 10 years since I dove with Stuart Coves. Sounds like their organization efforts haven't came a long way since I remember. They always...

    Scubapro or Mares?

    Almost philosophical? Vague would be a better laymen way to put it. What are you trying to get out of a regulator? Reliability and performance is across the board so hands down that's what everyone wants from a regulator, but what kind of diving do you do or plan to do? warm or cold...

    Log Binders

    Yeah, none of those two are waterproof. Amphibious Outfitter's makes some nice binders but they're so big and bulky. Let my reiterate that, "they are HUGE!" What do I recommend? Check out--> Dive-Logs.com - Dive Logs compact scuba binder

    Wrist mounted digital compass?

    Yes, please don't waste yr money on a digital compass. Some things digital just have yet to catch on the technological bandwagon, the digital compass...one of them. You'll be spending way too much money for very substandard equipment that will perform like $#@*!. Trust from the experience of...

    Split fins or not

    The Frog Kick is another swimming method usually used when swimming near a soft silty seabed or murky bottom of sorts as not to stir it up limiting or completely destroying visibility. It's like the equivalent of the breast-stroke but with the legs. The knees are slightly bent and drawn...

    Sharks and what do you think of them?

    I think they're among the most beautiful, graceful, charismatic, fascinating, ancient and mysterious of all Earth's creatures. Some sharks have elegant lines and move with the liquid evenness of creatures perfectly at home with their place in the Universe. Others, by their...

    Split fins or not

    I would consider a good go between fin the Mares Volo Power for those that don't quite want to fully cross into the split fin realm or vice versa. You wouldn't have to sacrifice certain kick preferences nor worry about losing too much power (as so many claim). It's a matter of partiality...I...

    Frameless vs SubFrame

    I too dive the Atomic Subframe and agree that there isn't really a considerable difference in view between it and the frameless. They are both very low profile masks and offer exceptional views. I like the subframe because of how it fits and how it's built. It is a great mask and so long as...

    I need a new mask

    Atomic Subframe does the trick for me, although it is a little pricey, I can see my BCD just fine with it. Great fit, superior comfort. The Atomic Frameless might be something to look into as well, it has a greater field of view. The Mares Demon is relatively cheap and also has a great field...

    My New Life of Diving

    Hi! Welcome to :sblogo: That reminds me of how I felt the first time I got interested in scuba diving over 10 years ago. To tell you the truth, that feeling never fades. Getting your certification will be so worth it, it's a life experience. I got my girlfriend interested and soon she will...

    Your Dive CPU is? And Why?

    While true, should you choose not to use the full Suunto RGBM model you can adjust the algorithm to an Attenuated RGBM that will reduce it 50%--I still wouldn't consider that 'liberal'-- at least compared to other computers. If you've experienced your fair share of different makes and models...

    Atomic lenses- better?

    Atomic mask by far....:arrr: I too prefer the subframe. FACT! There definitely is no doubt about it. The ultra clear glass is the finest on the market. Now to how much of a difference it makes is debatable. Kinda like the difference between 720p and 1080i for Hi Def TV's. There is...
