Selling some XS scuba velcro-closure double weight pockets. Well, at least I can guarantee that one of them is XS scuba. The other one is unlabeled, but it's a weight pocket, so I figure no one is going to be that picky. The single pockets in the picture are not included.
The material of the...

Former instructor suggested giving up my dry suit for a wetsuit. The only real problem I had was the weight of all my gear, 100 cf steel cylinder, trilam pro dry suit, 32 lbs of lead weights which was more than I could handle. Age has depleted most of my strength and there is not much I can do...

Quick Question: How many more pounds would you use with a Steel 120 vs with a Steel 100 to factor in the slightly more buoyant properties of the 120 toward the end of a dive?
Explained: A buddy is letting me hold onto his Steel 120’s as he is a CCR diver and never uses them, so I gave them a...
I had this posted in wrong spot. Reposting here....
I collected this data to help me decide on new fins. I wanted to share with others who may be struggling with same thing. Saw many strings on SB but always questions about relative weights, heavier, lighter, etc. When first researching online I...
I'm looking at different BP&W options right now. I'm planning on doing more regular drysuit diving in the PNW in the near future. I haven't decided whether I will need a 35lb or 40lb wing yet, depending on my fatness and drysuit buoyancy etc. I would like to get away with no weight belt if...
Got like a dozen dives on them and I never touched them again. Great kit and this is the original version with holes before the weight comes with fixed bolts. Can even be used on doubles as V weight.
$90. Local pickup in Bay Area or shipping.
Hi All — Question on weight adjustments when switching tank types:
When I switch from an AL80 to a HP100, I’m able to drop 6 lbs based on weight checks at end of dives.
However looking at the buoyancy characteristics of the two tanks, there is about an 11 lb swing in buoyancy at empty: +4...
How do you add weights to the back of a backplate to ensure you do not lean forward when on a vertical position?, ie: when waiting for the boat to pick you up. You advice with picture would be greatly appreciated
Hello!
I am fairly new to diving and was hoping you all with far more experience and knowledge would be able to help me out. I have a few questions. One is, which company has better quality gear and warranty should anything happen when it comes to BP/W, OMS or Halcyon Dive Systems? I have been...
Hello,
Im looking for an article, I think it was by SSI,SDI, or NAUI. It pertained to a frequent diver requiring less weight as you rack up your dive numbers (while using the same gear) because your natural respiration is smaller since you regularly dive and your body has become used to...

Hi all-
I hope this is the right place to post this. If not let me know and I can relocate it.
I have been diving for a few years, but mostly travel diving (caribbean, Fiji, GBR) and did my initial training in CT. I moved to Northern California and plan to start diving more and working on some...
Hi everyone,
Lately, I have been working on a weight estimation model for divers that have been absent from scuba diving. The model is almost finished but needs some fine-tuning as much information cannot be found on the internet. This resulted in many assumptions (which could be wrong) and...
I am a new diver with limited experience and have only used a jacket style BCD’s to date. I am ready to purchase my first BCD and have decided I want a Wing and Aluminum Backplate style for both home (Canada) and travelling (tropics).
To date, I have dived with a jacket BCD in the tropics (salt...
Dear Friends..
I just want to know if someone knows the weight for the VDH 18#, 23# and #35? I will be asking a friend from US to bring it here to my home country. I was looking at the website and only dimensions were stated. If someone knows i would really appreciate it.
Thank You!
Dear Fellow Divers,
Im trying to build a BP/W setup for me and my Girl Friend. I'm 5'9 and my GF is 5'2" Let me first tell you that I have very limited source for diving equipment here in the Philippines. I was gunning already for a SP Hydros and thank God I found the thread about BP/W.
Also...
Hi folks,
I'm only after a ball-park figure here - I know there are a large number of variables, but still....
Roughly, how much would you say your typical Faber 12 is in negative buoyancy equivalent of lead. As in, by adding a second tank and manifold to otherwise identical equipment setup...
