I finally decided it was time to get my self a new DPV so I decided to go with the blacktip. I ordered it strait from dive xtras so i have a few weeks before it gets to me though im bumping into a little bit of an issue. From what I can tell from reading around the most recommended battery for...

I have 2 old school short body Gavin scooters that if I recall are from the 90's that I got for 800 dollars each 8 or 9 years ago . These bad boys are pretty old and I haven't used them in at least 3 years. One of them got a flooded motor a while back while the other ones still technically...

I live in Miami, I'm trying to see if their is possibly any spots I don't know about that would be good to go and check out underwater or do some practice / test gear at when the wind is not favorable on the weekends. To my knowledge the only options are to either go north to Blue Heron bridge...

Anyone know what's up with this barge that's anchors over the reef at Lauderdale by the sea? From what I can tell its been there for some time now. Does it effect diving in the area in anyway, are they doing something in particular there?

Can anyone give me some advice of storing gear in outdoor storage. In something along these lines I need some where to keep all my gear accessable and organized at hone but im having a big space problem. Would keeping all my stuff in a plastic outdoor cabinet be a good idea?. This things arnt...

So i noticed a while back when using my DPV on a shore dive that pulling a dive flag can be somewhat of an odd thing. i was zooming along ~ 20 ft deep thinking that the flag was flowing me on the surface ~ 30 feet behind me. it wasn't until i felt the flag line tug on me that i realized that...

I usually have a tank or two in my car as well as my frequent trips to the fill station. i tend to not think to much about them and apart from one or two time where the tank rolled and turned the valve by accident causing a hissy mess nothing really bad ever happen. Every now and then...

A buddy of mine moved up to coco beach to a beach house a stones throw from the water. Was wondering what shore diving was like? Im not particularly interested in seeing coral or anything pretty as ive read the area seems pretty empty. Just wanna know what is out in that area. How the viability etc.

So my a friend of mine just found this where he works. Seems they lost the backing of the housing and decided to dump it. It still seems functional if i could get a new back. but the question is, is it really worth it? i cant find a actual camera model label for it. All it has is a sticker...

So i tend to find my self diving doubles pretty much off every boat dive i do and on some occasions sidemount just for fun or to keep practice. I live in Miami FL where there is a high level of vacation divers and i very frequently get funny/odd comments or looks from people about the gear i...

on of my second stages is breathing wet, im trying to see if there are any tears in the diaphragm or a dialoged exhaust flap. Just want to see if its anything minor, but Im having a hard time removing the front cover. it seems like any other regulator the just screws of but i cant seem to get it...

can some one tell me what fabrics or materials are used to make the bladders for most standard dive wings as well as what they are sealed with? ive been throwing some swings at some diy stuff and cant seem to get that particular part right. i guessed initially it was a denier nylon with a...

So im going to head to the doctor in a day or 2 to see whats up with my ear but i was wondering if anyones had something like this before. My right ear pretty much feels like if its under pressure from the out side. similar to going down maybe 5 feet with out equalizing. When i do try to...

Im interested in knowing what would be a good next step in getting significantly better underwater video as ive been using my go pro for about 2 years know and feel that im getting a little aggravated with some of the cameras limitations and would like to upgrade to a better camera. im would...

So ive though about this a few times before, tho have never asked about it since it really didnt affect me till now. how far fetched would it be to get my foot into wreck penetration diving with a full cave cert instead of a wreck penetration class :headscratch:? I'll be doing my cave class in...

No not Backmount Vs Sidemount What do you guys think is better (if not the pros and cons) rollerblading (Fruitbooting) vs skateboarding (Wanks on Planks) ? :D
