    Question about suit sizing for my tall/skinny self...

    that's a tough one.. a wetsuit really should fit good to be any good. I see the price of 260 or so for the picasso and then maybe + shipping. A custom fit for will be a bit out of that price range.. but, (and maybe you have) contacted eliossub in italy and see what their custom fit econoline...

    best mask for freediving.?

    joco fdog Joco, spearfishing/freediving less than 40', - really.. look at the atomics aquatic. Sure it's not a cressi minima or a mares target for volume, but you can't beat the view or clariy and the volume isn't terrible. I'm comfortable wearing mine up to ~ 75' or so, and I...

    Trouble Clearing Snorkels

    try this.. simple.. while prone at the surface, roll into the snorkel while exhaling.. so, do a full body roll, maybe a bit slowly, towards the snorkel side, while exhaling.. not blasting.. and there won't be one drop of water in the snorkel. quiet too, so good for spearfishing.

    What to do after eequalization mistake?

    let me know if I'm correct (if you do see a doctor), I am betting that your eardrum didn't tear, but rather you traumatized it... and there could be fluid putting pressure on the drum from the inside. Not getting a cold are you? As stated previously, best to let the pain go away before...

    Need Advice on Purchasing a Spear Gun

    I agree, just planting the pneu seed for when he gets back and finds it's not the ticket for large carp and less than ideal visibility. Hey Chad, apparently you've never seen my low vis, short range, modded mini mini sten send the short 8mm shaft clean through large carp. :)

    Need Advice on Purchasing a Spear Gun

    If you want power in a small package, look into a used pneumatic gun. Aside from that, 22' is very skeptical, and probably reflects more the length of line to end of spear than the actual effective range. Which is probably more like less than 10'. If your visibility at home where the carp and...

    Mares Mirage Speargun - Maintenance & Parts

    Hello, I don't have it handy but I do know of a place that has gauges for checking the inner pressure.. I think the person that sells the mamba also has the gauge. It is rather costly at around $70 u.s if I remember. An easy solution that we use is just to load the gun against a floor scale...

    Breath Hold

    I know it varies.. water conditions and just what kind of a day you're having, and if you are sight seeing, going for depth, or spearfishing, it can all make a difference. Usually the first dives are the shortest and then they get progressively longer. A person might start out with only 30-45...

    Another freediving fin advice Q

    corwin, when I moved from an old clunker scuba mask to a good low volume mask it completely eliminated the first wall I hit, I think it got me from around 40' to maybe 70' instantly. Maybe slow your pace down.. it's all about efficient movements, sounds like using gravity you are on the right...
