    Hollis Sizing Chart -- Where it is?

    Perhaps I'm just missing it, but I can't seem to find any sizing charts for the SMS100 (or for *any* BC/Harness for that matter) on the Hollisgear site. Could you point me in the right direction? (It's holding up a sale, guys...).

    What mount works best with your GoPro?

    I've seen some of the DIY PVC rigs some of you have done, and they're very creative... I'm a relatively new GoPro owner, and have the headstrap (which would probably work much better with a self-styled chinstrap), and the wristmount. For those of you that have been diving with the GP for a...

    Trying to try a Dimension i3

    I've been looking into the Dimension i3, and I'm fascinated with the concept, especially now that it's a back inflate... However, I can't seem to find any LDS's near me (in metro Atlanta) that carry it. All the AL authorized dealers sell it, however, I haven't seen any in-store. I'm looking...

    Jean-Michel Cousteau's "Sharks at Risk"

    Great Jean-Michel Cousteau episode on right now: "Sharks at Risk." Should have been on Discovery during 'Shark Week.' However, best part of the show, was a drift they did in a channel at an estimated 4 or 5 knots... They shot along, with the reef as reference, as if they had rocket powered...

    Paddlefish sightings in Loch Low-Minn!

    Well, after our nth visit to Loch Low-Minn, we finally tagged a few shots of the elusive paddlefish today! There were quite a few empty setup tables, so the water wasn't overly silted, and the Loch had about 40'-50' visibility on the far (north) side. As we cruised past the outcropping, at...

    Anyone heading to LLM or Blue Water the 3rd or 4th?

    Actually, disregard the post title... I meant the 4th or 5th!! My dive buddy (wife) is out of town, and I *really* would like to get wet (and check out a new rig)... I'm not a big fan of solo... Anyone heading to the quarries?

    A650 IS or G9?

    Have any of you used both? Consumer Reports seems to give a slight edge to the A650 IS, which surprised me...

    Hollis SMB

    Nick, Do you have the dimensions for the Hollis SMB/Sausage? I like being able to inflate directly from the inflator lp hose, or octo. However, I need the deflated length and width. Thanks.

    What factor gives you greatest stability...?

    Let me qualify this... This isn't meant to be a bp/w vs. softpack vs. traditional bcd thread. I've seen phrases such as: "trims out better..."; "more stable..."; "allows better buoyancy control...", etc., and I'm always looking to improve skills. If there's a bit of equipment that helps...

    Which Octo for an Atomic B2 Primary?

    I know there are quite a few Atomic B2 and T2 (Z2, M1, etc.) divers here. I've been diving a B2 with an Atomic SS1 for years (which I'm *very* pleased with). However, going forward, I'm adding a standard octo, primarily for travel. I don't want to stint on the reg (and didn't on the...

    Sunscreen killing coral?

    There seems to be a proliferating string of articles on this. Seems we (divers) should lay off the sunscreen, as it apparently promotes coral bleaching... Not looking for a response... this was just an FYI --

    Camera Mask - For Real?

    Stick your tongue in your cheek, and take a look at this combination camera/mask, from some California company, just launched today (Jan. 2nd). Apparently, it retails for about $100, takes up to 5mp shots, as well as video, and is SD card upgradable. There's a heads-up crosshair to align...
