    Which Halcyon model

    My husband currently dives 5mm in cool 18 degree to warm 26 degree water, both locally and internationally using his Halcyon Eclipse 30lb Steel plate and loves it. He has put on some weight and is finding he doesn’t have enough lift when fully inflated in rough condition. I looked into...

    South West Rocks fatality - New South Wales, Australian

    Shredding nails

    Skin Repair by Rosken, I swear by it. Makes my nails so they can almost bend completely backwards without breaking. I usually order from Amazon as it can be hard to get. if you can, get it in the tub rather than the tube, I’m not sure why but it seems to work so much better and a little goes...

    Anxious at safety stop

    Hi everybody. I am an female 1000+ dives diver aged 60 who has all of a sudden developed anxiety during safety stops. I used to be able to hold my stop with no problems, now I rely upon the line which I absolutely hate. I have no trouble poking around on a 5m shelf while doing the safety it’s...
