I learned to dive SM in Mexican caves, wearing a drysuit with thin undergarments and two AL 80s. I use 14 lbs of lead in that configuration. I like that AL 80s are light underwater and easy to unclip, unbungee, and manipulate in other ways. I am now looking to switch from BM doubles to SM...

This week we went to Lake Zug, Switzerland and flew along a wall, met some fish and found a Memorial from the army.

Is Apeks Thermiq suitable for sidemount given side pockets? Tried the Apeks Thermiq 8/7 semi dry and loved it. Only issue is that it has side pockets with a hard pull bar. Since I dive sidemount I am worried that these pockets (esp. the hard tube to pull them open) will get in the way. Do any...

A fair amount of the shore diving I do involves walks through shallow water of 100-200 yards (meters) before reaching a 5' (1.5m) depth to begin a dive. Gearing up at the beach would be cumbersome and makes little sense as it defeats a key benefit of sidemount. So my question is how to get the...

Hello, I am moving so I am putting up for sale my ULWD LD-35 with sidemount gland and 107 battery of which I am the original owner. This is an amazing light and works flawlessly. I always rinse down with fresh water after diving and have keep the light stored in a climate controlled room of...

Happy New Year Scubaboard, I am (PADI rescue diver, 82 dives, based in China but will return to Germany in 1 years) looking for my own 1st and 2nd stages incl. Octopus. Out of the ScubaBoard search I concluded that there are multiple regulators which are favored by different persons depending...

Hey guys! First post here so apologies if this is in the wrong place or has already been posted (I couldn't find it if it has been)! Bit of background before I jump into the problem I want your help with if possible :). I've been lucky enough to dive all over the world for the past 10 years -...

Looking to order my first drysuit in a month or two. Was wondering, is there an ideal position for sidemount diving? Afraid of tanks being in the way if pockets are in the default position. Thanks!

Hello :) I recently got Sidemount certified and want to look into getting a set up I’m stuck between the Apex wsx45 and the dive rite nomad ls . I want something versatile where I can dive in cold water with a dry suit and if I ever wanted to travel or get into cave diving i could grow in to it...

Hi, I just learned Sidemount not long ago and have 2 sets of regs, my primary one have a short high pressure hose connected to my spg, a low pressure hose for my razor bcd, and 2 second stages ( one is my main and the other is my octo) my other reg is much more simpler with a second stage, a spg...

Hi guys, i currently think of moving to sidemount because i got a bit annoyed of carrying the tanks on my back. I'm also impressed with the advantages of SM (streamlining, redundancy, no tanks on the back). 80% of my dives are in German or Austrian cold waters with a drysuit. Though, i go on...

Please PM with photos and info to make this a speedy process. Interested in sets: Dive Rite D6 SM XTX50's But if you have others let me know.

Hi all, I currently own an Aqualung LX Supreme regulator set and Atomic Aquatics T3 regulator set for my single tank diving. I have just started sidemount diving and used Apeks XTX50 during my training. I liked them but not a fan of the small purge button. I have a XDeep stealth 2.0 Rec BC and...

Please respond with pictures and info.

Hi everyone! I've been diving LP85 in sidemount for a while now and I love them! However, I'm starting to do deeper technical dives (no cave) and I wouldn't mind having more gas... So anyone having experience diving LP95 or even bigger tanks, say even LP108? How to they trim compared to the...

I am transitioning from Tec to Tec side mount I have been in the water a couple of times with my Hollis SMS 100 and everything is good except the bungees for the neck of the bottles. I want to be able to have a connection that can carry the weight of the bottles because of a need to do a giant...
