    Computer: Stick with used D6 or go entry level?

    I'm just getting back into diving, eventually I'll probably be an instructor (I teach other adventure sports), but right now it's all about being frugal and me and the GF are just looking into Advanced Open Water now. I picked up a secondhand D6 from a retired divemaster for $150. He said it...

    Cressi Gorilla Pro - Opinions?

    Hey, I travel to dive, and I'm considering investing in some gear (ScubaPro Jet fins, a generic backplate-harness combo, and a Halcyon Eclipse wing - I noticed that BPWs give me much better trim than jackets), as well as a bag to transport it in. I was eyeing the Cressi Gorilla Pro, but...

    Narrowing down drysuit choice

    Some context - fairly new diver here, trying to do as much equipment research as I can so I buy gear that works for how I'll want to dive for the next few years. Also, I'm very lanky and so definitely feel the cold a lot. Looking at cheap-ish drysuits that I can use in the UK year round and...
