What do y'all think of the news that Skin Diver mag is no more?
 
I never liked skin diver!!
I had a subscription to Underwater USA years ago. They went under and replaced my subscription with skin diver :-(
I realy miss Underwater USA It was a great scuba news paper!!

Why are they going under?
On the front of the mag it says "The world's most read scuba diving and snorkeling magazine."
Personally I liked it. The annual photo issues rocked!
 
To me it was a cover to cover vacation brochure!!
Lots of pretty pictures thats it. But im a cold green water diver
maybe im just jealous :-)

A diver friend got an email from "under the sea", it said that the november issue would be the last
 
the mag was 100% travel adds. if you where a new diver who wanted to go to the bussiest dive sites in the world, you just pick up that mag and they will send you there. and their articals where about the advertising, they where totaly controled by thier advertisers.

however it is always sad when a bussiness goes under.


what is your favourite dive magazine.

I have subscriptions to three mags two are dive mags

990 - the best mag the is
Immersed

the other is Maxium of course.
 
My bet is that the reports of the demise of Skin Diver are inaccurate. They're still selling subscriptions on their website and advertising their February trip to the Antarctic...
