Nice web site. I wish I could read French.

Under the Italian regulators, that is the nicest looking Pirelli Explorer regulator I have ever seen. That has to be the weirdest regulator ever made.

Very nice. I like the Kawasaki reg that looks just like a Conshelf

Hi Luis H


I'm going to translate french to english, to allow everybody understand whole informations. But at this moment there is not a lot of text ;-) we prefer to show regs and give a fast description.

If someone have manuals for any regulator of this site. Can you post-it on the forum, please?

Thanks

I hadn't noticed that you had posted a thread here as well, so I'm copying here what I have written elsewhere. I teach French as well as German, so I've no difficulty with understanding the site's contents. Cependant...

Please change the colours of your home page. Black writing on a dark blue background is all but impossible to read.

Can I also ask you to consider broadening your coverage of vintage diving equipment beyond regulators? Yes, I know that's the name of your site, but there are already American, European and Japanese sites and forums dedicated to double and single-hose regulators, but far too little on other items of vintage equipment such as fins, masks, snorkels and drysuits. As a vintage snorkeller, I get very frustrated when historical diving sites and forums focus exclusively on the development of breathing apparatus, important as that is. The Diving History site at

DivingHistory.com - Preserving the history of skin and scuba diving

has done wonders for the historiography of American diving equipment with its masses of original advertisements for every type of diving equipment. There is nothing similar to document the history of diving equipment in Europe. The primary sources in the Diving History site have helped me to document as many as a dozen early American drysuits. Apart from the Italian Pirelli suit, the British Dunlop, Siebe-Gorman and Heinke suits and the East German Pinguin suit, there's really no information online about early drysuit manufacture in other European countries. Taking France as an example, it would be good to collect data about Cousteau's constant-volume suit and the La Spirotechnique Phoque suit. I believe Mares made an "Impermeabile" suit in the early 1960s and Dräger of Germany had another suit around the same time, but it's impossible to find out anything about them...

So Bonne chance with the regulators, but consider widening your horizons a little more!

The site must have changed its name from "diving history" to "skin diving history", or I somehow got the name wrong in the first place. Anyway, the good news is that it's still around, at:

Skin Diving History

An exceptional site, full of original source material, unavailable elsewhere.
