Wow - lots of JPM fans in here. pleasant surprise. I've had the pleasure of meeting him when he raced here in the states in the CART series. He's definitely my favorite driver - hope to see him win the world title someday. he's a tremendous talent, but he needs to control his emotions a...

I know this may come down to personal opinions but recommendations or advice greatly appreciated. here's the scenario - I am in the process of purchasing new regs for a doubles rig that i have. I know Apeks makes great regs as well, but the reason i've narrowed it to these choices is simply...

Hi Dlent, I have this light and attached it to an older mask (which was a small, very low volume mask). on that particular mask, the weight of the light did in fact make the mask leak. I have a SeaVision mask now, and it does not leak at all with the light attached. the light is great for...

OK, can someone help to clarify why pressure ratings for Fabers are different overseas? I haven't found a definitive answer to this question I've heard two different versions regarding Faber LP tanks - 1. The cylinders sold here in the states and overseas are identical, and it is the...

I currently own a Cyclon and a Jetstream/Odin, which I purchased a few months ago. I only have a few dives on them, but I am very happy with their performance (my first dive was in 38degree water, with no probems at all).I am buying an Xstream in a few weeks, and will post my feedback once...

edit: of course it goes without saying that you read the sticky above, and that with a basic OW cert., you have no plans of penetrating any wrecks anytime soon. (forgot to mention that earlier, but i'm assuming you already know that). having said that, the above link is a wealth of knowledge.

http://www.njscuba.net/sites/index.html try that link - it's a great site detailing local wrecks in that particular area. actually, the entire site is loaded with good information. hope that helps.

So THAT'S what he was talking about when he mentioned the 'special' deal if i spoke highly about the store on the messageboard ;) ;) lol, j/k

I'm actually in the same boat - I have ordered several things from them in the past year, and not once had any problems or had anything missing or mixed up with my orders. I have dealt with John directly, and he's always been straight with me. FWIW, I have no vested interest and am not...

FWIW, NESS also sells a 6 lb. STA, which helps out a little more with the weight distribution. I bought their DR Transplate special last year (great deal, by the way), and added the heavy STA - the combination works perfectly for me. They also have a 12lb. plate available, but I don't...

i know that to a certain extent, a compass is a compass. I recently bought a Suunto SK6 - It was a great price, and i like the fact that it has a nice, low profile. So here's my question - for people that have used both the sk6 and sk7, is the SK6 reasonably comparable or is there a...

thanks for all the feedback, folks. Finally had a chance to get them in the water this weekend. I'm very pleased with the purchase! I cannot believe how forceful the Jestream purges. It's almost like it wants to suck your tongue right through the regulator, lol. Took a little getting used...

You might want to try northeast scuba supply. they offer the CF200 signature series for well under $3000. I'm considering the same exact model, and so far they have the best deal i've been able to find. unfortunately, my local dealers cant come anywhere close to their price.

That's exactly what the lds owner said - they sell like crazy further north, but for whatever reason, not many people in the maryland area dive with them. I'm definitely excited - i walked into the shop expecting to buy a few DIN caps for my tanks, and walked out with a crazy deal on two regs...

I'm curious to hear any/all feedback from people that own a Poseidon reg (i did a search, and didn't really find what I was looking for). The reason I ask is because today I purchased both a Jetstream and a Cyclon - the LDS that carries them is primarily a ScubaPro vendor and hasn't had...

FWIW, Northeast Scuba Supply has a deal right now on Faber lp85's. They have single tanks and doubles packages available. (* standard disclaimer - I don't work for them*) Today I bought a set of 85's with the manifold and bands included for a smokin' deal. I was originally planning to...

yep, me too. i was always trying to get that last little bit of air out of there, lol. all i really needed to do was just relax and quit fidgeting around. sure enough, i started sinking. i got ALOT of water in my Venture wing the first few times i used it. I now drain less and...

mine has grommets. maybe they redesigned the wing? I bought mine just over a month ago.

add another satisfied Venture owner to the list - I'm very happy with mine. i

I have taken the SSI nitrox course, and i think it was pretty good. I liked my instructors and felt they did a good job. I can't compare it the other agencies, though. I have one one gripe with the SSI book - it's a little 'fluffy', if that makes any sense. it has all of these...
