    com masks

    These are Technisub Masks, they were sold in USA for awhile by Aqua Lung. Technisub is an Italian company part of Aqua Lung group. The masks work OK as I have had several but the oral/nasal seam bugs my face. They have a weak point on the Mask where the SS band meets the plastic, they can...

    Hogan dive plan

    Gas-wise I like to keep the mixes simple unless you really need it. Might as well save the money for Trimix for diving the Monitor or something else. For 130 ish I stick to doubles w/ Air & then a single Deco cylinder either 50% or 100%. I was lucky enough to be on first dive boat trip to Hogan...

    DIY hookah system.

    I have used el cheapo hose on one of my boat Hull cleaning rigs for Sailboats in San Diego Bay and it works well but your results may vary. Some of the cheaper hoses have stinky plasticizers supposedly, I havnt ran across this but its usually a vinyl-type smell. El Cheapo hose bought at the dive...

    Tanks for Doubles.

    Best way to go is to use Tank that you can reasonably purchase, you can trim almost anything to work including dreaded AL100s. I have doubles in HP120s, HP100s, AL100s. That being said I prefer LP Steels due to ease of Mixing your own Tri-mix at lower pressures. Now we have a new O2, HE booster...

    First wingless (pool) dive

    You can still look vintage however with a CO2 vest on also, and its a good backup if you need flotation. Same approach still used today by USN and other military. Friend of mine dove on Calypso expeditions for years, std op there was a basket of weights in water at 10 ft. Divers would trim as...

    What you have as others had said is a triple 30 manifold made by USD. However it can be used w and w/o case as the case was made only for a limited time. I just rebuilt another one the other day.

    Need some advice please.

    By Wreck Alley I assume San Diego, and with the depht that would be the Yukon. Just dove there yesterday, max depht about 100 to the sand cutouts. You can really do the whole dive on a 80 with air and circle the whole wreck. If you are worried about having a longer bottom time just dive the...

Over the years I have worked w/ Oceanographic and Military systems and always wanted a portable system. I...

    Doria 2006 on SEEKER

    By the way... Last July we were out there for 4 days, flat as a pancake, literally like a lake, during the day you could see Oil Sheen bubbling up around the boat from the Doria, barely any breeze. We had a little squall on the way in but it was a real comfortable trip.

    AGA mask with a rebreather?

    Both AGA masks and Morgan masks were used w/ Navy MK16 units. If you look in past USN manuals you will see pictures w/ a special AGA mask, I do not think it was sold to civilians. I have seen Morgan masks used w/ MK16 and also the old Posieden/Cressi FFM was used at my EOD unit. The Navy felt...
