Re: White's Fusion Bullet
I can see what you are saying about the Bullet with regards to drying time. I don't want to seem as if I am ignoring your insight but I have been thinking a lot about what you have said I don't for see an issue for me on that particular point. Most all of my diving will be either here local at a la...

Re: Bare XCD2 Drysuit
We checked out several dry suits at the Expo in Tacoma and found that we really like the White's. We like the looks, how they fit, the construction, the principle behind how they work. There wasn't anything about the White's we didn't like except that we couldn't take two of them home with us from ...

Re: Bare XCD2 Drysuit
The wife and I also purchased the Whites... she has the Fusion Fit, which is a woman cut and likes it much better then the sport. I'm getting the Fusion with the Sport (in about 2 weeks), but will also be getting the Bullet later. Spend the bit of extra and get the Replaceable Neck and Wrist system...

Re: Bare XCD2 Drysuit
Well...and unexpected turn of events came around. I came into some money and I am pulling the trigger on two new White's Fusion dry suits for my wife and I. The Bare I was looking at was a used suit but with being able to buy new I am going for the White's. Thanks everyone for offering thoughts and...

White's Fusion Bullet
Hey everyone. I am in the market for a White's Fusion suit and I am torn between the Bullet and the Tech suit. I have read where some think the Bullet is too thick and takes too long to dry along with being heavy. Also, I have read that the Bullet limits your mobility more than the Tech or the Spor...

Bare XCD2 Drysuit
Hey everyone...does anyone have any experience with this drysuit? I found one for sale that is used for a decent price but being used I am concerned about buying it. Any information that I could get would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

We stopped by The Oregon Dive Club booth and talked to Jeff, the club president, he has not had the chance to meet my wife Danee yet, so I introduced them. We ar...

Re: Question about visibility in June.
Well..it turns out that I misunderstood my instructor as to what location we would be diving for training. We will be down closer to Hoodsport but still diving out of his new boat. Either way it will be good times. I am almost looking forward to crap visibility. I know some are thinking, "What...

Re: Question about visibility in June.
Thanks for the replies gents. The dives are going to be from a boat. This instructor does most everything from a boat. Can't say what he does for shore dive training as we have not discussed that yet. I know we are doing the normal Night/Low Viz, Deep, Buoyancy and Nav but seeing as he does his tra...

Question about visibility in June.
I have been wondering what the visibility generally like in June in the area around Sekiu Washington. I did OW in June last year summer at Sunrise in Hoodsport and the visibility sucked. You could hardly see the diver next to you. This June I may be doing AOW with an instructor that prefers to go t...

Re: I need a new host for my pictures ...
I am a member on a BBQ forum called the Smoke Ring. They have been batting around this issue over there also. The admin on that site found a thing called irfanview, he seems to like it. I have only read one post over there where one of the members did not like it.

Re: Grounded Soon :crybaby:
The surgery is basically a roto-rooter job. He's going in thru the back and will be reaming out pretty much all of the nerve passages in my entire neck. C2-3 clear down to C7. I had C4-5 and C5-6 fusion in 2004, and the lower one didn't fuse right. So he's going to take a look at that and see if it...

My wife just had C4 & C5 vertabrae fused in October. She was out of the water for three months also. If you are going through the same surgery, I would suggest that you INSIST on a hard collar for your recovery. She was given a soft collar and felt like she did not have near enough support for ...
