WTB workhorse 2nd stage octo

Hey all

Friend is getting gear kit together. Anyone have a 2nd stage/octo to sell for reasonable price?
Something like an R190, R195, Alpha 8, or anything workhorse.

Thanks!

Re: Singles Wing Configuration Discussion

Tom I have an Oxycheq mach V 30#, and my buddy "Magoi" has the 40#. Great wings. Very slim and trim in the water. Rumor has it both wings have the same size bladder inside, just a different size stitched cordura outer. Not that that matters much, anywho, it has a zipper to remove/clean ins...

Re: Newbie questions about gear

Greenacarina I'd give the shop a call. Once you have met with your instructor and have the paper/temp card in hand there shouldn't be a problem getting some tanks. And +1 on getting out to see and talk with people about what they dive and why they do things a certain way. The divers who have well th...

Re: Bottom Timers - Recommendations, Please

Don't mean to hijack at all, figured this goes along with bottom timer talk. (disclosure, I'm not DIR) Would a uwatec bottom timer on a bungee mount mess up a compass (sk7) bungee mounted on the same arm. Reason I ask, I have a wrist computer on one arm and compass on other. It'd be nice to have bac...

Re: Wanted: Good Used Primary Stage Regulator

The first stage is DIN, and the pony I mentioned has a DIN valve as well. Let me check when the last VIP was. I am sure it will need to be VIPed again, but I would recommend that for any tanks purchased used. Make me an offer on the stuff. It has been just sitting here gathering dust, and if someone...

Re: Wanted: Good Used Primary Stage Regulator

I have an aqualung, DIN first stage that I used to use with a pony. Not needed anymore. How does $50 sound? I'd give you the first stage and my old 19cu ft pony for 75. Or 100 for those with the quick draw mount. Pictures aren't uploading properly. I'll pm or email you.

Re: What Fins Do You Use & Why?

your mileage may vary...everyone is different after all :) I like my Jets, though my drysuit boots fit an XL...if that weren't the case I'd be looking at the Hollis F1s. Slipstreams are "lighter" I believe, and turtles are a bigger foot pocket. In warm water I use a full foot blade fin whi...

Re: Aluminum vs steel tanks

Scubnewb Totally hear you. I also do not like it when people "talk down" to others whether it be about diving or not...just because they think they are right or know more. I'll say this, my reason for using HP100s is because my instructor and now good friend uses them exclusively while div...

Av8er, spudgunman and whoever is reading this thread! I am sure there are multiple people who are in the process of purchasing tanks or thinking about changing their rig.
