Dear Mr Scott,
I told you before; stop using us to advertise those darn BCD's. That was supposed to be on the QT. Now the Commies will know to look for all black, non logoed gear on our G men and we will be forced to switch over to those god awful yellow Scubapro stab jackets and pink fins in order to "hide in plain sight" so to speak. I won't give Joe McCarthy the satisfaction, so sh*t can it already.
BTW, while I'm at it. What's this scuttlebutt I hear about you selling torpedo tail stabilizers to the Japanese? I spoke to their foreign minister and he assures me they are only for research purposes but just the same...
Ok enough griping. Send me a box of those EagleZ Havana cigars you've been bragging about and I'll see if I can get someone from the USO to sew on some sequins in the mean time.
Regards,
J Edgar Hoover.

They really are a 'massive' company. Bow down to the genius of the Eagle Z1 marketing gods....

No wonder they can't hold their water. That's gotta hurt.

I like the "2 Speed" weight system! ha ha ha ha
They criticise Zeagle for only having a "1 speed" weight system.....
It took me a while to decipher their nonsense and realise that they were talking about the fact that Zeagle have designed a clever mechanism that dumps both weight pockets from a single pull release, wheras the Eagle needs both weight pockets to be dumped manually.
ha ha ha "2 Speed Weight Release!!" ha ha ha
