Hey! Me and my friends created a website where you can easily find all the information (sizes, colors, other tech specs) about different dive gear items. You can also create a profile and add the gear that you own. Please take a look and message me with any suggestions :) Scuba - allthings.wiki

I will likely be diving in mostly warm water climates, should I purchase my own wetsuit? Will a full body rash guard suffice? Just a shorty or long sleeve swimsuit? Is it worth it to purchase your own computer? Brands you recommend? I welcome any advice!

Hi all! wanted to ask your opinion on this topic: are you ok lending gear to others? I have been buying my first dive gear set slowly, and it’s been with a lot of consideration, time and love on each piece. They might not be the most expensive but I love them. One of the reasons for me to start...

hello new diver, looking into buying midrange gear, maybe used and just get them serviced at a local dive shop(for the regs) found a couple good deals online, need advice on what to choose. background be diving mostly in california and traveling to warmer waters like mexico, and south east...

Hi all, Recently got Fundies Rec Pass in single-tank / wetsuit, and my GUE instructor's advice was to start making the transition to drysuit / doubles, neither of which I have used before. I have future aspirations for T1 / CCR / Cave (but first need to make 94 more non-training dives...

Hi ther Scuba Board Followers, taking the kids diving for the first time and as they get their feet wet for the first time in scuba gear i want to know what is the best gear for them to start off with in their own collection, their first session will be a 2 hour dive class at a swimming pool to...

After a couple months of reading this forum and watching You Tube gear review videos I purchased my first set of gear, which will hopefully last me a while. I plan to remain a recreational diver (cold water, wreck dives mainly) but wanted the flexibility for travel and to change it up in the...

So fellow underwater freaks. My wife and I qualified last year and probably only have 8 or 10 dives under our belts, but we love it. We're looking to start buying just a few of the essentials, fins, masks boots, that sort of stuff. Any tips or advice. Definitely want open heel fins. My wife...

Is it a good idea to get a back plate that can hold two tanks? I really like the idea of it and I have been wanting a new BC but I’d rather not buy one just to learn that I am going to need/want something better soon after. I have heard a lot of people talk about how nice they are to have for...

This is kind of an intro built into a question I have been certified PADI Open Water since Fall of 2020 but I have not logged a whole lot of dives. I did 4 Grenada, 2 in Mexico (Cancun), and 2 in Costa Rica (Pacific Side). So all of my dives have been in warm salt water. I have never put on a...

Do i even get a complete package or is better to buy seperately? Deals on here look good compared to piecing it out (Buy Scuba Gear Packages for Diving at Best Price | Divers Supply) some even come with a tank. But as a fairly new diver i am very overwhelmed by the options. Does anyone have...

Hi all Here I am again with a new dilemma: the purchase of open-water fins. The BP/Ws are still under evaluation, but I'll come with an update soon :) Went for my first open water dives in 5 °C, and 7 + 3/5 mm wetsuits were absolutely fine (for now). In summary, I don't like floppy fins, and...

Hi everyone, I'm relatively new as a diver, and have done almost all of my diving in relatively warm waters (Thailand, Maldives, Saipan), though I did have a few cold water experiences (Bonne Terre Missouri, Busan South Korea). I want to be able to dive more in South Korea, but the water is...

Hi, I am a beginner AOW diver based in UK and trying to gear up for a local cold water dives. Would also use this gear for warm water vacation dives. Would like more experienced divers to comment on my gear choices before I take a plunge, especially Xdeep ZEN vs. i.e. ZEOS or should I go with...

Sorry in advance to the repetitive nature of these kinds of questions (I did search before posting for something that answers my questions.) I am having analysis paralysis with choosing my first scuba setup and could really use some help picking my BC. I know I can just buy a full halcyon setup...

Dear fellow Divers, I’d need your help. I’m a tek diver building a startup to improve scuba gear and make diving experiences better. And I can’t do that without hearing from you - the community I’m passionate about helping. Here’s a quick survey to get started, if you could fill it out for me...

Howdy folks! I’ve been recreationally diving with a disability for over 2 decade (primarily warm water). My partner and I just moved up to Portland OR and the dive conditions here are much different with very heavy cold water gear. What is HSP? (HSP : HSP & PLS : Spastic Paraplegia Foundation)...

I’m a fairly new diver and I’ve noticed the rental equipment is just not comfortable since I suffer from tmj my jaw locks up after every dive. Last trip I was able to realize I was biting down a bit and relaxed my jaw it helped some but still was an issue. I like to have my own gear anyways, I...
