    Oceanreef vs OTS Full face mask

    Everyone will have a different reason for using a Full Face Mask. We use them out of a need for the type of diving we do. But I will agree with tbone1004, its not my go to. I enjoy the peacefulness of not having to communicate while wearing a standard mask.

    How many students fail your course?

    Completely unrelated topic, and not a joke, but when I was a career Police Officer I pulled a young lady over one night for speeding. After conducting a traffic stop, I proceeded to issue her a citation for speeding. She looked me square in the eye and said, "I didn't think you wrote pretty...

    Swivel for Fusion 52x

    @ReefHound, Yes there is clearance, you just won't be able to re-install the VAD hose protector. It will look a little awkward, but it will function just fine.

    @tbone1004 Hey Tom, just to clarify things, the 52X refers to the first stage which is paired with multiple second stages.

    Doing AN/DP with FFM, Realistic?

    As @tbone2004 stated, the equipment I use is specific to the dives I make. The SAV (Surface Air Valve) is a huge plus when you are the back up diver on a team. Anytime we are dealing with swift water, I must be on stand by for immediate deployment into the water. I don't have time to put my...
