Wow... let me see if I understand this. You could only find 12 lbs. to rent, but someone had 6 lbs you could buy?......

duh!!! i missed that

I told you to take your weights with you. You can't trust that Florida weights.

Now, be honest, are you trying to pull something over us? Be honest!!!

I'm dead serious. I know am the proud owner of more softweight

And how much did that weight cost you versus how much the airline would have charged you to take it with you?

And where are you that there is only one dive shop around? You must not be where the good Florida diving is because there's tons of dive shops there.

The weight cost me $17.50 i would have schlepped the weights through security(or I would have tried). The dive shop has a group of 10 doing open water right now so all their weights are rented out. I am located in Brandon Florida at the moment. A ways inland so there's not a heck of alot of dive shops near here. the only one near by is the Brandon Scuba Quest.

you guys were wrong...I should have brought my weights. I went to the diveshop this afternoon to rent some and.....They only had 12 lbs on had (I need 18). I had to buy some weights out here

That sucks the store I deal with will take it off the floor if they don't have any lift to rent. I wittness this myself.

So FL weight is the same as CA weight? The hell you say! Next you'll be saying that the European Left is the same side as the American left!!!
