Ben, Where did you get your gloves at?? Everywhere I look, they are 100-150. Diving Concepts have proven #1 in customer satisfaction at the shop, and yes they are the most expensive, if you are looking to save a buck, the OS systems have been #2, but we still encourage the diver purchase of few Div...

If you are diving from shore run a straight path out to it by compass only. Neither are difficult tasks, plus ...

I've got 113 dives on my Seasoft gloves (5mm Ti Edge) and they're as good as new. :supz: Yes seasoft and high tide use the Yammamoto (Spelling?) neoprene which has a long compression to warmth lifespan. There is a difference in thickness after a good span of diving compared to a new set. Just repla...

I have a trip planned next August for the U-352, Dixie Arrow and U-701, hopefully the Naeco and Proteus too. Just did this 352 this last August, some spectacular diving for sure, bring the Scapalomine patches though. They know swells out there in the OBX.

I finally got the tank!!!! I just picked it up, although it wasn't in time for my scheduled dive. I have to say that UWS did give me a free nitrox fill and didn't charge for the o2 cleaning, so that was nice of them. I didn't even ask, we were just talking about our frustration over XS's inability ...

Dive Trip Report Bunker Hill

Dan Warter of DCS Films just posted the recent trip report of the Bunker Hill, check out the video, music composed by my son's band Motion Trials.

If you haven't checked out the Governor video, it's a must.
