I would say when control of their diving becomes second nature in a variety of environments. So that they are not only proficient in tropical waters but cold waters, not only clear water but murky water. Has an overall experience and practice to handle typical issues on the fly with out panic...

You've brought up a good point Maclir, their website does list a YKK as the option and no listing for Tizip and all of the invoices say YKK. So I wonder why they have listed one manufacturer and install the other? Possibly just they they are a small company and have not updated their website...

Pool dive went great. Amazingly comfortable. Practiced some somersaults and some other exercises. It was warmer then 50 though, a relaxing 56 today! So I’ve run into an issue though, the plastic zip is a tizip and comes with its own lubricant which appears to be Silicon based. Seaskin...

I ended up getting the LM tinkle valve based off of reviews, and parts availability, and cost. I couldn’t quite justify the halcyon at this point. It came with the quick disconnect and the disconnect seals when disconnected. This means that I’ll have to get the disconnect and a squeeze bottle to...

The date is getting closer! So now I’m looking at P-valves, trying to decide between the Light Monkey Tinkle and Halcyon. I was first sold on the halcyon based off some forums, but those forums were comparing the balanced LM to the halcyon, not the newer tinkle valve. More reviews of just the...

Both good points. I’ll see if they can install the halcyon valve. Then it can also be leak checked at the same time. From my understanding of the Kubi system is that is used rigid rings and orings to seal the wrist and gloves making it a user replaceable system and a system can be used either...

Thank you for the information. Zipper is a YKK zipper. I ended up ordering a few days ago with the following: Fitted nova suit Plastic YKK zip with protective zip Neck seal is orust with silicon seal Warm neck, Kubi dry cuff Kubi dry glove Dump valve moved to DIR Compressed socks, Knee pads Bum...

Good to hear clear results on that. Get the thinsulate. Won’t waste my time with that then.

Also, I spend a lot of time camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities and already have some wicking thermal shirts and pants that I could wear under fleece sweat pants and jackets. Would those be sufficient? Maybe I should skip ordering the thinsulate from seaskin until I do a couple of...

I try to pay attention to those things as well, but I’m pretty thin, so I lose heat just looking at the water. I have heard some negative things about the longevity of plastic drysuit zippers, do you feel that a plastic dry zip will last? I’m hesitant to remove the extra protections, I do...

I dive in southern California with typical 75-100 minute dives and am looking to purchase a dry suit. I am pretty well set on a seaskin nova due to their custom sizing and price. Here are the features I am thinking of adding and would like some opinions on the items I am selecting. This will be...

Does anyone know the o ring size for the mares nemo wide (version 2) dive computer? My family has 5 of these computers and we just had one flood because of a bad battery oring...So I am looking to buy some bulk orings that I can use to change at every battery change from now on because of this...

It does have a stainless swivel bolt on the newer yoke reg. upon closer inspection it is magnetic, and when scratched, no brass is shown unlike the one from the 2 port reg. I actually have a cart with VDH being put together. He helped me out alot with the first reg i rebuilt. Thank you for...

I believe the first one is a Mk5 first gen with the 2 low pressure ports (please confirm me), but the second one is the one I really have questions on with 5 low pressure ports. Also, I have heard the both have possible brass turret bolts and should be replaced with stainless steel bolts. I am...

I have finally gotten out with my rebuilt 109, and success! it worked. And yes, it was better then my g500. And yes I am switching them out to have my G500 on my pony bottle, and the R109 as my primary. When it is opened all the way I compared the way it breathed to having my head out of the...

I did look through dgx. I am not sure if those would fit on the current bc threads. I could be missing something. I have tried the inflator hose from another bc and it didn't fit so I assumed that different manufacturers had different sizes.

Sorry for the great delay, i had to add three shims, i did two on one side of the spring and 1 on the other side. Its been so long i dont recall what my final pressure was, but i think it was 135. Dropping a few psi at lower pressure. I got some spear fishing rubber hose to contain my regulator...

couple questions, first the back ground, my wifes tusa selene bc is leaking out of the shoulder(inflator side). I can not figure out how to dissamble the shoulder dump valve to inspect or clean it. So now the first question, does anyone know where i could find a manual of sorts for this? Second...

.015 was not enough. Pressure actually dropped slightly. I assume that might be related to the new hp oring. But the pressure change while purging was less then before. Now trying .010+.012

Alright, I am learning my lesson. Get the right tools first time. I got my new parts, and upon removing the low pressure side I saw a little flake of something on the piston o-ring as seen in the picture. I will be removing the o-ring, replace and re-assemble with the piston bullet. Right now...
