    New design Everflex gloves

    I don't know when it happened but Scubapro redesigned the everflex glove to put a semi-dry style tight two layer cuff on the glove. It used to be a standard neoprene glove with shaped fingers and a cuff that worked well over dry seals. The new design completely changes the feel and application...

    Look 2 replacement parts

    Disappointed with Bare over SB System suit

    I am one of two divers in just the last week who tried to order the new Bare SB System drysuits at my diveshop and weren't able to. It wasn't (stricktly speaking) an availability issue...they reputedly deliver rather quickly. What it was was a SIZING issue. It would seem that Bare subscribes...

    Diving with JADS Aruba Sept 25 - Oct 7

    Can't wait for the warmer water and better vis than New England waters, not to mention ditching the dry suit for a couple of weeks. I'm going to try to get at least 34 dives in so I can hit 200 this year, no special reason other than I like round numbers! :eyebrow:

    Ok, so I try to use the search function when I can but usually the results are such a mixed bag as to be nearly worthless. I have found the advanced search window but no help screen or further instructions are obvious. What I am looking for are the search term commands (and/or, exact quote...
