I need some advice on properly folding the ScubaPro Evertec Drysuit for transport. My previous drysuit had a rear zip going horizontally across my shoulders and "rolling" the suit up from the feet towards the neck provided good thickness for the zip to bend over when I folded the arms over the...

Size: L Condition: The suit has never been used in open water. Two pool test dives only. Suite is in excellent condition. Wrist seals were trimmed very slightly but so little it is virtually not worth mentioning. There is a little left over talcum powder on the suit (which will wash off) but...

I am in the Fountain Valley, Orange County area in Southern California. Both tanks are in great condition but will need to get visual'ed to get them back into use as we have not used them for some time. Each tank has a weight integrated boot to offset tank buoyancy (the weight can be ditched in...

We are selling all our Scuba Gear (my wife and my own). Have a look at my auctions on eBay at the address below. I only accept Paypal payments through eBay. Amongst other items I have two virtually new dry suits, two in good condition semi-dry (semi-wet?) wetsuits, two dive computers and a host...

Ok, now I've never dived twins before and it's probably not going to be soon that I venture into that territory either, but diving twins and only using a drysuit for buoyancy control just somehow seems like taunting fate in some way to me. I should mention that I dive my ds with my bp/w setup...

My wife and I each have a pair of Bare Trek boots; she has the size 8's and I have the 9's. We're both looking for new fins and after doing a bit of searching through past threads here on SB I've narrowed it down to either the XS Turtles or the OMS Slipstreams. Question 1: From other threads...

How many here switched over from wetsuit to drysuit and did the training course; how many of you just went the DIY route? I'm still waiting for mine to arrive which should be any time now and I'm all stoked to get it on for a test drive. I'm pretty confident that I'll be fine with it after...

It appears the USAF is starting a $11 million study to assemble a collection of hardware and software tools for "Dominant Cyber Offensive Engagement" which will include, amongst other things, "high risk, high payoff capabilities for gaining access to any remotely located open or closed computer...

This article has some pretty good tips on keeping your information safe when travelling across international borders these days. For those of us who like taking our laptops where we go, read this - it might just save your bacon. Read me first: Taking your laptop into the US? Be sure to hide all...

Three charged in Dave & Buster's hacking job - Network World Everytime I see one of these articles I think by myself that shoddy network security is to blame almost every time. What is it with businesses not having learnt yet that there's a threat out there and that they should be keeping a...

While recently watching the BBC's Planet Earth - Shallow Seas, my wife and I were fascinated by how apparently in Indonesia some banded sea kraits (sea snakes) are working together with yellow goat fish during their hunting raids on the reef. We were amazed at just how many kraits were actually...

Blah Blah Blah :lotsalove:

As said before - I'm new to DS diving and wish to know if there are any particular reasons why I should not continue to use my normal weight belt, aside from compensating appropriately for more/less weight, when I start using my new ds. Any pro/con arguments for/against weight belts that I'm not...

I'd like to hear some opinions from anybody here that owns and/or have dived SoCal waters in both winter and summer using this drysuit and the Bare T100 thermals. I'm waiting for my new kit to arrive but want to know in the mean while whether any of you have found these insufficient for ambient...

We've recently moved to a new area in SoCal and it's too far from our old LDS to viably and comfortably continue using their pool and their services for training purposes. My wife and I are independent instructors and like the freedom it gives us to train our students slowly and properly without...

I recently had a friend of mine bring my favorite 15L steel tank from South Africa to the US. When I moved to the States I decided to leave it in storage because of weight restrictions and I decided to have it brought over a couple of weeks ago because it saves me from having to buy another tank...

My wife and I are looking to hook up with anybody in La Jolla area that knows the dive sites there well and who'd like to show us around a bit on Saturday, 16 Dec. We would very much like to dive the Canyon and some of the other popular sites, so I'm hoping we'd be able to get multiple air fills...
