why don't you say something about your experience with the equipment you were using?
since you posted it here...
Another full week. My gad! I miss the board!!!
My boss went home early so here I am again. Weeeeee!!! :boings:
Anyway, so, I tried a bp/w last Sunday with ish and chip(s) :slick: and Im not sure if its cause of it that my buoyancy seemed better or Im just getting better as a diver (shucks! :blush: ). Honestly, I think its the bp/w. I find it rather complicated to set up :headscrat Not that I set it up myself
Chip did it for me and watching him set it up was rather stressful because I kept on thinking what if next time hes not there to set it up, then Ill be the one to set it up and wheres my bcd again
And I didnt know the parts so I kept on asking whats this for, how about this, and this
On the boat, I was surprised to find how easily it was to stand up with the gear on when before, with the bcd, I had to seek assistance form the boatman for this. I read about the backplate distributing weight evenly across the back so I guess thats true. Underwater, it felt even better. Except for a few stuff needing adjustments (weights, shoulder straps, etc.), I felt more comfortable diving with it. Oh, and my first time to dive with no backpains after diving. wow! :thumbs-up
I want one, yes but Ill be with jag and ish working overtime along q. ave or q. circle to get one :sad_2: And only after my AOW (AOW course first
).That means, Ill have to live with renting it from DP for the meantime.
Oh, and chips new reg ROCKS! he was kind enough to lend it to me cause someone exchanged the inflator hose of my reg with something smaller (hmmph!) so he used one without it and I used his. thanks, dude
