Unfortunately it isn't my size, otherwise I'd offer you a shiny new penny for it :) Just kidding - hope you sell it soon so you can get your BP/W.....

Re: What If

Hard for me to say since I've only dove at two sites (redondo and les davis), but I'd have to say I'd rather be with the sea turtles in hawaii...always what I've wanted to do.....

as an aside....I hope you get back to diving soon

Re: BCD.....or BP/W

I do plan some trips to some very tropical destinations, so want to have something that I can use. I am also pretty much planning on getting a...

Re: First Dives after OWC

I recently learned of a weight belt tip - I never tried it since I use a DUI weight harness. Once you reach 20' you should tighten the belt again, due to the suit squeeze making your waist narrower. In theory this should keep it in place. I will definitely remember this should I happen to use the w...

Re: First Dives after OWC

Erika, I am so glad you had a good time on your first OWC dives. It just gets better from here. Sorry to hear about the weight belt suckage. It just takes some time to come up with the best combination to carry your dive weight. One option is to purchase two of the cam band weight pouches that go o...
