Bob, that doesn't work with all personality types. With certain personality types calling someone out on something is all that works. When other methods have been tried and failed and then you call someone out and you get a response it's obvious that is the only thing that will work with that...

Where have you heard this? I have discussed the idea of bringing a standardized sidemount course into the GUE curriculum with someone who is actually employed by GUE and is involved in the process and that was not one of the reasons that came up for why they haven't adopted a sidemount program...

HI Mike, The Canadian shipment was made. Anyone who ordered and paid should be receiving a signed copy this week (if Canadian post isn't too slow ;) ). There are still a few copies available if there is anyone in Canada who would like a signed copy.

Pretty sure you won't find another shop that demos rigs they don't sell.

This is not true. We have Armadillos, SEAC, Hollis, Dive Rite, Razor, and more. I dive my rigs and use them during exploration in Florida and Mexico. I'm very familiar with them. And I won't push one rig over the other. If you want a rig I don't sell no problem. I'll let you know where you can...

There will be a pizza oven on premises. ---------- Post added October 26th, 2015 at 06:41 AM ---------- Well that's all that was meant by ish. I guarantee a 5% or even 2% variation will not be seen. ---------- Post added October 26th, 2015 at 06:44 AM ---------- Kelly, if you're...

30-ish because it's usually 30.5. But given that analyzers are allowed a +/-1% differential I may get 30.5 and someone elae.might get 31% or 29.5%. However, I am consistently getting very close to 30.5. Why not 32%? I can assure you it has nothing to do with the other shop in the area? I...

If you are truly planning on doing most of your dives using steel cylinders then I recommend you talk to divers who dive steel cylinders. The guys in Mexico are diving mainly with AL80s. I've taught lots of students in various rigs and cylinders. The students in the Razors and Stealths, when...

Here is the kind of profile you will get with a 75 True, this is a full wing, but that's a good 5 inches. And that 5 inches is lifting the butt plate which in turn is putting the cylinders out of trim. The top of the wing is very minimal so the gas is forced to the bottom like that. Just...

Like Phil said, the images look okay in the color Kindle version. I did have to screenshot some tables and images that Kindle wouldn't keep formatted in line and they turned out grainy but that is likely my lack of knowledge in how to produce better quality images. The big drawback to the Kindle...

Seac makes high quality equipment. The Sherpa is a good recreational rig and lightweight at only 4kg. You do mention eventually moving onto a dry suit. With that I would advise you to consider sizing. A recreational BC like a Sherpa may not fit well on both a wet suit and a dry suit with thick...

How are the valves held up in your armpits?

I apologize. I had no idea how long it would take.

Looking forward to reading it. Thanks for the link!

It's finally on Kindle!! Sidemount Diving - An Almost Comprehensive Guide Kindle edition

If the retractor doesn't need to be locked then I'm guessing you're using aluminum cylinders. There's no way that would be the case with steel cylinders unless you have a retractor I'm not familiar with (which is quite possible). As for the double snap on the neck, why not just a bolt snap on a...

While it is similar to the MK25, the DIN connection is not as far offset from the center of the body as the MK25. It's enough of a difference to not be as much of an issue. The weight of that particular 1st stage is not exclusive to just turret style 1st stages. I have both fixed and turret 1st...

Then it's the undergarment.
