Info Aqualung Financial Troubles

I'm not overly concerned with AL fate.
There isn't any rocket science in Apeks regs and 3rd party kits are available.
Even if my regs are to die, I'll just go to some other brand. Knowing what I know now, I won't even bother to go to their service course, just need to dig service manual from the net and maybe some spec tools (not likely, as I'll go with as simple as I can get).

Having been around for a bit, ha ha ha ha ha before idiotnet, I could outfit with everything for a grand
Now with the access we have to the world, I can still do it for a grand maybe even with a good scooter

So buy used or be a gear mannequin for a house deposit on a credit card are you serious about diving

Geez I really wanna clear this table today, or tomorrow, this week!


And if the people are unable to educate themselves they will just have to postpone buying their house
It's like tattoos, now you can see them coming from a distance and can cross the street well in advance

It does kinda seem gatekeepy.
It’s always kind of been that way as long as I can remember, which isn’t really that long.
It actually used to be worse when I first started, LDS’s really had the sport and its participants by the balls. But due to the internet, the flow of information and a lot of myth busting, it has helped to give the consumer more knowledge and more empowerment to take charge and control of their hobby. I would never have gotten into DIY and all my involvement in the working guts of the sport if it wasn’t for the power of the internet.

Yea, I’ve been diving for a year - and I’ve feel like there’s a lot of things that can change. The LDS is slowly becoming an endangered species - like the LBS. But we do need a source of air and sundries at the dive site, which leads us to a quandary.
