    Poll Drysuit Socks Or Attached Boots

    I have only had attached boots on my DUI TLS, I like them but am wanting to try sock with donned boots. I do get a little floaty feet feeling if I get inverted to take a photo or to peer in to an opening, but easily manageable with the boots attached. Do use fin keepers to take up some of the...

    Tech Gas Cost

    Here in SoCal we have quite a few available dives that are in the Tech range from 130-200' plus range several a short boat ride away in the 150-170ft range like the Moody or Caisons as well as several sites just south of me in that range. Of course I understand you don't just jump in to those...

    Multi Deco and V Planner

    I noticed while looking at both MD and V Planner, that MD has more choices on Algorithms. Are one of these or other software more compatible with diving a perdix or does it not matter. Thanks

    DIR- GUE We got bullied today :(

    When I was taking fundies I went to get my doubles filled at a LDS (they are cheap for the area for nitrox) anyhow, just in discussion it came up that I was getting ready for fundies, and the look on this guys face was off the charts. He said some dumb misinformed crap and I just went on about...

    Deco Software

    Thanks, I kind of figured that would not be very fun having to end a dive sooner than my buddy everytime and spend all that money on He and boat trips would start to get old and I am sure pretty quickly. Just wanted to see if it was common or as I gathered from your answer a PITA

    Deco Software

    Not a tech diver just thinking, and was wondering with all the different Deco software out there how do individuals plan a dive if they are using different software? And what if the divers are using different gases, say one on trimix the other doing deep air. I am not looking for an answer of...

    Comparison of the buying online vs local LDS argument

    I have had good experiences and not so good with both. I contract for a local shop and they will price match most online prices, now of course has to be something they carry typically or can get it. I actually would say I am about 50/50 or so with online and LDS. I have four divers in my house...

    Opinions on an SMS75?

    I do not have nor have I tried, but I have an associate that dives it all the time and he uses Al40s x2 he seems to have zero issue and said he loves it. So guess there are as many answers as you like. I have found with gear in general you need to do your research like you are and just take you...

    Cave diving fins

    may have already been answered, but anyhow on the seawing nova's there is a spot that flexes between the blade and the foot pocket could be a failure point I suppose. Never heard of it happening but if you look at it I suppose it could. I use F1s and the DR XT's not at the same time of course :)

    Minimal Possibly DIR-like Setup

    My first BPW which I still use, was a Dive Rite SS and Voyager Exp wing. I am still using the wing but have that on a halcyon cinch harness for my single wing diving and my dive rite harness and plate for my doubles. Has served me well for 8 years now.

    Systematic use of oxygen analyzers by advanced divers ? [Poll].

    yep, agree totally, I was on a dive boat and did not ask for nitrox well tested my tank it had 33.2% this tank ended up being for someone else and was accidentially given to me, my dive was only going to be in the 50-60 ft range with my son due to his training level, but if he did not want to...
