    Bare Drysuit Owners?

    I wonder how many people like me sat back and thought maybe I should say nothing. The only problem with the NEX Gen is anything thing can put a hole in it.

    Graduated license???

    Dive log books have NO merrit at all. You can fudge one in a heart beat. The other idea may be to have a stamp from dive charters which would say what the dive is and how difficult it was of a dive, dive depth, and conditions. Something like the LOG book but stated and signed but the charter...

    Has anyone bought from divetank.com?

    Yes I think it would as it is 8 mil and has wool lined which seems to make the difference. It is also a one piece that fits. They are used in the UK and people seem to be very warm in them.

    Has anyone bought from divetank.com?

    I think DIVETANK.COM can help you with that ! Also AQUASPORTS.com out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada can help you. So can AQUASHACK out of Campbell River, British Columbia, Canada can help as both sell Pinnacle. The suit set is way warmer then the two piece and has a zipper and fits great...

    Graduated license???

    Coming from me this is different. What are you saying ? Are saying we need a regulatory body to oversee the agencies that give out cert cards ? That would be twice as bad. You would not have a choice about what you will learn at all. As all the angencies will be teaching what the Regulatory...

    Has anyone bought from divetank.com?

    I feel there is some confusion. DIVETANK.COM does nothing but great service to the customer. They only give good deals on the products they sell. Dive tank will do everything they can to please the diver. They have great deals on gear for the diver and how they handle orders is the best...

    What is an octopus?

    Thats funny. I just asked several new divers what it was and NOT one knew the answer. Why because it's a bad name and nobody seems to know its your back up reg. Everybody who I asked was very clear that it was the entire set up NOT the back up reg alone. The manufacture must have had it wrong...

    What is an octopus?

    This is how I see it. Valve, first stage. Second stage is your reg. next is a safety or alternate reg. And then the hose's for either your BCD, or Dry suit. And all of that is a Octopus. Which should be turned into a diving rig or set up. The idea that a alternate air source is an Octopus is a...

    What is an octopus?

    The octopus being used as way to discribe the second stage has allways been a problem for me. The entire set up I can see a slang use for. The term only confuses the new diver and they end up feeling uncomfortable to speak about there gear. I wish we would drop the term completley. That way we...

    Has anyone bought from divetank.com?

    I never said anything about FIT. I know they fit and leak well. I said I have been true and blue for over ten years. DIVETANK.COM is excellent just in case some of you got confused !!!!!!! BARE service is not. They do not service you well after the fact that is the point. They helped me...

    Graduated license???

    I need to clear up this little bit at the bottom. What I was saying is that the only way is too have a regulatory body that could test everybody. The problem is the cost. That with all the other diving related costs may turn others away. Even though we need it. My last posts kinda says I agree...

    Has anyone bought from divetank.com?

    Divetank.com is great! Bare Service is going to make you crazy. They have been the worst to deal with by far !! The service you will get is so under par from any other manufacture that it is a problem. I just sold all of my Bare suits because of it and I am in a Sea Tux much better service and...

    Graduated license???

    This to me is the biggest problem we have. I agree with this completley. The system is broke very broken to say the least. Very true statment. Also a very bad one. Sad to say money come's before life. But the system in everything is broken. Thnik about all the cash you are missing out on. In...

    Graduated license???

    How can you rely on the guy form the LDS. Who say's he/she has enough experience to be a good judge. I feel EGO will get in the way for sure. I very much agree. But here in Canada that will be the next step. WCB has not realized the work place hazards to the LDS. When that happens we will be...

    Graduated license???

    This is what i met by Big Bro. The question is do we want a group that takes you out to re-cert you on dives and they become responsible to the boat operators ?. What I mean is do you really want a Provincial body looking at your diving and checking that you can do the dives you say. That is...

    Graduated license???

    It all leads back to the Big Bro having control. At this point that would be like the WCB diving program which is only good for the school not the industry as they teach nothing important yet give cert cards.

    Graduated license???

    Alright. I have to agree with everything you just said. I do understand what wedivebc is saying and some how we have to get a better system for the boat operators or some way to leave them with NO responsiblities at all in which case every man/woman for themselves is the only way to go. But...
