    Weight Question

    Do you already have the Knighthawk? Just wondering, if you're going the back-inflate route anyway, why not combine expenses and go with a BPW? Dive-Rite, Oxycheq have very nice BPW rigs that are close in price to the Knighthawk... you can buy 6lbs less weight... if you find you need more than...

    Weight Question

    10% + 6lb sounds a bit heavy... is that for the 7mm suit? What's the formula to calculate for neoprene buoyancy?

    No one likes Jacket Inflates?

    Ok, this is an age-old thread... I always enjoy reading topics regarding this... mainly cuz I find them entertaining... :P My personal take on this topic... Either jacket or BPW is fine. you're not gonna die if you choose one or the other. What a lot of people forget is that we equip...

    Tropical Diving with or without wetsuits?

    Hi Jay... it would really depend how cold you get under water. I just recently started diving with just board shorts and a short sleeved rash guard (more for my BC straps than anything else.) During the colder months here in the Phil (Dec-Feb), I use a 1.5mm wetsuit. But again, it depends on...

    Mares Sizing Chart?

    Hi Phil, just reviving an old thread... looking to get a new Mares Trilastic... there seems to be a new XS size for men... this doesn't seem to be in any of the online (or your 2007) size chart... where does this fall? Is it smaller than the S size in your chart? Or was the chart moved up to...

    LF: wrist mounted analog depth gauge

    Ya, well... that's how it started... hahahaha... I saw an analog one online by Quantum... if I can find a way to get that one, I will... I'll settle for the Casio if someone is selling one used.

    LF: wrist mounted analog depth gauge

    Well, like I said, I was initially just looking for a really small depth gauge... something that I couple attach to a regular G-Shock, kinda like Suunto's Clipper compass. But I can't seem to find anything that small. :P

    LF: wrist mounted analog depth gauge

    Thanks Xizang... P15k is a bit much... I'm looking at a couple of Casio Sea Pathfinders that are under P10k. They only measure up to 30m though. I only want the watch/depth gauge as back-up/everyday watch. I already have a Suunto as my primary. I was just initially looking for just a back-up...

    GUE recreational classes - early details

    R3 does sound a bit weird... it's like Tech 1 ... but not... it'll cost as much... but not allow you to dive as deep. Why would anyone sign up for R3, instead of just going straight into Tech1? I can't imagine lugging around twins + deco just to dive along side other PADI divers on air...
