    Apeks RK3 Fins

    Quick question Scubawookiee, what size did you order them (compared to your shoe size)? Are you using them with regular boots or with drysuit boots? I am getting myself some but don't know if getting them Large is Okay. I use like a 9 - 9 1/2 US size and will be using them only with wetsuit boots.

    Anything new from Shearwater for DEMA?

    I wanted to create a thread here to see if anyone has gotten a glimpse of a new product/ firmware update coming from Shearwater this year. While we all know that DEMA isn't necessarily the place where most manufacturers introduce new tech I was wondering if Shearwater would be bringing us...

    GoPro 3 O-Ring question

    The o-ring from the 60 meter housing is starting to wear down. I was wondering if I change the o-ring for the one on the skeleton housing, will that o-ring create the same seal as the other seals, or are the seals different? (from what I can see, all three o-ring's on the different backdoors...

    Quality pictures/video with a go pro set

    I hadn't notice and thanks for the remark. However, one of my questions is kinda asking if anyone has experience with taking photos with a gopro and a lightkit/strobes since I would like to know if it would be hard to shoot with it. I am more concerned about being able to get better/proper...

    Quality pictures/video with a go pro set

    So the gf gave me a go pro 3+ last x-mas. Mainly, I dive when taking students for their open water dives. So while doing so,(mainly on the last dive of the course) I take the opportunity to take some pictures and videos for them to have something to remember from the experience. Slowly as well...

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    This is really good to know. Just to be clear, I am planning well ahead before doing anything. Looking for where and with whom to get instruction with. So far I am leaning towards Edd and Cave Adventures. I definitely want to use my time wisely while out there (that's why the idea of doing...

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    What I meant was that I'll take both courses when I head there to try and have Edd teach them. Any advice on the easiest way to get from Fort Lauderdale to Marianna?

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    I'll see if I can pair my trimix course with intro to cave and get him to give it. I am already taking sidemount with another PSAI instructor.

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    Has anyone taken any courses with Edd at cave adventures? I've bought gear before from their store before, and I like that he is PSAI/DSAT. Share opinions/experiences! And how the hell do you get from Orlando to Marianna?

    if you are thinking of trying this....DO IT

    I've browsed Andy's site before and it is really good. I know the importance of taking a sidemount course but I am trying it and discovering it alone before doing any serious diving with it. My priority is on finishing my trimix (backmounted) and then next will be my sidemount course.

    if you are thinking of trying this....DO IT

    Could anyone recommend me any good sidemount book(s) or DVD(s)? I've been playing around with a Hollis sms50 for some time now (changing the bungies to loop bungies, replacing waist D-rings for compact ones and moving them from their stock placement, etc...) and I've made some improvements on...

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    Thanks for this info. If this is the case, and PADI Tec 50 is equivalent to IANTD technical diver, then it seems I can go for Trimix Diver directly! That's great news :D

    Question for Petrel owners - how are you using your computer?

    What do you mean by using your SMB and marking every 10'? Do you mean that you would deploy your SMB and then proceed to make stops every 10' along with you g-shock?

    Recommendations for Trimix Course

    I don't lean to GUE because it implies starting from zero my tech-diver route. About IANTD, would it be possible for me to go for the Trimix Diver course or would I have to start from Normoxic Trimix first? I don't know how are the qualifying levels applied in IANTD. I like the idea of Mexico...

    Did SSI just get bought out by Mares?

    It seems like SSI is withdrawing from the American continent. SSI Latin American is now non-existent. They sent out an e-mail to a shop I know of letting them know that SSI Latin America doesn't exist anymore? Do you guys believe this means Latin American SSI instructors are due to disappear...
