Re: Frozen Dive Buddy Revisited, Advice Appreciated

LCF, I remember your tip about staying warm before the dive from a previous post. Scubie Doo, yeah layering up of suits might be something we have to do. It is challenging because the bulk and buoyancy of the suit gets higher and higher with each layer we add, trying to find a balance. ArcticDiver,...

Re: MMM

I went from an undersized Apollo (neoprene) to Dui FLX Extreme (tri-lam), although am using the Bare SB fleece undergarment w/o the liner. Currently Bare has stoped production on the SB suit, #-o My flx was a big change in that I was actually comfortable! :breakdance: I could hardly feel the squeeze...

Re: MMM

Thanks Tom... was quite comfortable and warm. We had a pretty good dive. Visibility was quite good at depth, could see all the way across the dome. Funny tho how sore I am today... 119 is a totally different animal. I can tell I should probably drop about 8 lbs atleast. It'll take a few more dives t...

Re: Say What?

I have an inflateable neon orage signal/safety tube for that that rolls up nicely and is stored in my bc. I think it's about 7' long something like that, so as if I'm caught by the current out into open water of the puget sound I can atleast be seen.

Re: No boundary line at Cove 2

Randy had the misfortune of having one fisherman doing the berserk dance on the dock yelling at him for being 'inside the legal boundary' and simply would not listen to Randy's explanation. :angry: Out of the water and still in the dry suit I figured it was just a simple misunderstanding and went o...

I'm 5'11"+ but under 6' 165 lbs. Stock Mediums fit me like a champ. I steped into an XL and was excessively baggy and way long, I appreciate the offer though :notworthy:

Re: Advice on a drysuit

Down to the final count :burntchef:

:uh: DUI FLX Extreme vs Bare SB :dontknow:

DUI: superb quality/durability/longevity/zip seals, great fit & flexible
Bare: best fit/COMFORT/flexibility hands down - longevity/durability appears moderate

If I had the money I'd buy both :pirate:

Re: Advice on a drysuit

Your local LDS that stocks the brand you want can do a custom order, just be sure to ask the community of divers who to go to for measurments if custom. Otherwise the larget selection I know of would be Underwater Sports in Seattle, but I dont know about other shops further south. The tacoma dive ex...

So does the first stage need to be adjusted if using HP in lieu of LP? That and who makes good HP 120s?

DIN vs YOKE

Question all, can a first stage yoke (in my case Scubapro Mk16) be converted to HP DIN? can yoke handle HP? Also any special considerations for the second stage? (Scubapro 550)
