    Wetsuit buoyancy: Loss in depth - how big should be BCD

    I can't afford a drysuit. Lol. But my BP/w with 25 pound wing works great. Had a lp inflator malfunction at 40 feet and was able to comfortably swim my rig up. With a HP100 tank. Good read.

    Instructors who yell for no reason

    Do I need multiple dive computers or HP hoses?

    I dive up to 36 and my regs have never been cleaned. Just my dedicated nitrox tanks have been o2 cleaned. I had the same concerns about the regs called dris and they confirmed 40 and below they are good as is.

    Best Technical Computer in 2017

    How deep are you planning on going. I asked the same question on this site and the perdix always came up as one of the best. My local lds owner is a well known east coast wreck/ tec diver and he swears by them. If you do get the ostc 4 let me know how it works for you.
