    Spring Straps Too Tight (Deep 6 Eddys)

    Hi guys, Just wondering if there might be suggestions and solutions out there to help with my predicament. L Deep 6 Eddy on long, slim foot. Fits well width wise but the straps squeeze my foot uncomfortably hard even at the loosest screw setting. I'm not aware of lengthier spring straps that...

    Securely Attaching Weights To Shoulder Harness

    Looking for ideas on how to securely attach weights to 2" shoulder webbing on a BP/W BCD.

Might want to add that I typically use weights from the...

    Malapascua In July

    Seems like July isn't a good month to be visiting Malapascua, with many operators offering "low season discounts". I'm not too bothered about the rain - I'm going to be wet anyway. Unless it's so bad they cancel trips. Any opinions on whether it's worth visiting or try again at the end of the...

    Neutral-to-positive Tec/Cave Suitable Fins

    Odd Numbered Dives - Pay For A 4th Tank For The 3rd Dive?

    Hi guys, Making 3 dives a day isn't uncommon. The first two can be made with the first pair of tanks no problem. What about the third and last one? Swap out both for a third and fourth tank? Move a 2nd stage over and dive with one?

    What Would You Do In Cebu? 7-10 Days

    Hi guys, I'd love to hear your suggestions on how to split up 7-10 days in Cebu. Solo traveler so resorting to private transport may push costs to a little on the high side, so I'd rather not move around too much. I'm sort of thinking of Malapascua and Moalboal for now, but unsure on how...
