    Worst Scuba Related Movie Ever Made? "Air" 2014 starring Sasha Asay

    I had to know... Could it actually get worse as the movie went on? And what was the plot? To sum it up, there wasn't much of a plot, and yes, the movie did get worse.

    For you New England divers

    I dive dry year round in MA (dry gloves and hood too) with at least 1 layer of wool underneath. I can't pull off a 5 mill. Too cold for me. Some of my friends will use a 7 mill in the summer and go dry in the winter. Personal preference sort of thing. It depends on tolerance, depth, pond vs. ocean

    Worst Scuba Related Movie Ever Made? "Air" 2014 starring Sasha Asay

    Sadly, pressure is at least an 8 out of 10 stars compared to "Air". If you've ever felt that you did something wrong in life, and need to suffer because of it, "Air" is a perfect movie for severe penance.

    How do you dive?

    CCR: Petrel non-AI (canbus) on rebreather as primary computer, Perdix AI as backup computer w/SPG's on all offboard gas cylinders. Dive/deco plans in wetnotes if technical. Open Circuit: Perdix AI w/xmitters. If there any slung cylinders for deco, they will have SPG's on them.

    Worst Scuba Related Movie Ever Made? "Air" 2014 starring Sasha Asay

    The free (with membership) Amazon Prime Video and Tubi TV have arguably the worst scuba related movie ever made. It is called "Air". It is about a scuba diver who surfaces to a world with no air. Over an hour of my life that I will never get back. Air (2014) - IMDb Movie was pointless, the...

    Ears care

    I use this prescription from Bausch + Lomb. Works well for long term because it does not have any penicillin-type antibiotics in it. http://www.bausch.com/Portals/77/-/m/BL/United States/Files/Package Inserts/Pharma/Rx-Generics/acetic-acid-in-aqueous-aluminum-acetate.pdf?ver=2016-09-12-083212-347

    Pee valves: "Up and Over" or "Down and Under/Through"?

    For those that use the adhesive kind, Uni-Solve removes them nicely. Also there is something called Skin-Prep that is helpful. Skin-Prep prepares you beforehand, Uni-solve dissolves the glue after your dive. Uni-Solve Adhesive Remover - Wipes Wouldn't dare try removal without Uni-Solve. Ouch!

    Up and Over. No way I'm cutting a hole in my undergarments to route down.

    Is this going to be the new norm?

    In the end, I think most can agree that we are better off with ScubaBoard than one of the other forums. Am personally grateful for the knowledge that comes out of these forums at times.

    People are much easier to offend nowadays. I blame the politicians.

    What do you wear under your drysuit and undergarments

    I dive dry year-round. Underneath the drysuit, I wear Woolpower undergarments, both top and bottoms, along with thick wool socks. Woolpower is a Swedish company that makes excellent merino wool undergarments for diving and other activities. Their wool is very soft, comfortable, non-itchy, and...
