Re: Leaking Oral Inflator

divenerd.com has an o-ring kit. Could be you got some sand in there or something, and just need to disassemble it and put it back together.

That's what I'm going to do, anyway...

Re: *Ahem* I DOVE!!!

An excellent question. I need to do get one of your inflator service kits and replace my lpi hose (or dig out the o-ring and replace it) and then it's back to business as usual, I think. Couple weeks, most likely? Dig it out and replace it, it's not very hard and much cheaper than a new hose. Glad ...

*Ahem* I DOVE!!!

The last time I was in the water was September 18th, 2010, at the Redondo club dive. I had problems with my sinuses, and was unable to get below 10fsw without feeling like a 2 1/2" deck screw was slowly boring into the left side of my forehead. I was nonplussed, to say the least. After 5 months...

Re: DUI Zipper Drysuit Pockets

I don't know-I have a DUI zipper pocket on my suit. I've never waxed that zipper, and have never had any trouble opening and closing it with wet or dry gloves, above or below the water. I switched one of the pockets to the velcro closure bellows pocket, and it seems pretty cool, but I've only got on...

Some of the big thinsulate booties are warmer but i loose all 'connection' with my fin tips and inevitably end up pinching one area of my feet or another which doesn't help. So ...
