Pretty sure they are the same ...Identical really. The Aeris was cheaper to buy but didn't offer the same warranty if I remember right. But identical masks.

I have over 125 dives on mine ....easy to read and easy to program. The link cable came free with mine new? Never had a malfunction. Its a heavier mask ( out of the water ) and your vision is reduced some over a regular mask. But you can't beat the hands free display. I always know whats happening a...

WOW...nice set up! and yes ....SEXY !!

on so many lvls ! what ya think...20' deep?

Very Nice Video ! Which Go Pro you using? Lens ? and how are you mounting it? Have to say, one of the best clarity GoPro video's I've seen at that depth so far. The lighting is awesome !! and great job of stability !

Thanks for sharing.

Mine were very tight for the first 15-20 dives. Are you talking about the Neck seal? Neoprene and Latex. I didn't cut mine just folded in in more. The Latex has to go against your skin and a fold that's a few inches is best. It does develop a memory at the fold to make it easier later on. I would re...

Two West Highland White Terriers ... Westies for short

For some reason I get better SAC rates on night dives !! must be I feel more comfortable and peaceful. and you only see whats in your light, less time straining your eyes trying to see far ahead ?


I'd take a night dive over a day dive anytime IMO

I use the Scuba Pro Twin jets ....split fin Why? I was told they were the best ........hindsight.........they are great for warm and cold water. BUT if I could get a " do over" I'd go with the F1's. Only way to frog kick in these is to be VERY LIMBER !! and forget backing up..... they are ...

That was my 1st choice ...then I dove with the Data Mask. The Mask won ! but would still luv to have one of the X1's if I ever go beyond recreation diving.

+1 for Steel HP 100's preferably w/ pro valves ......some HP 100's have a smaller neck and you have to run DIN only. Aqua Lung is one of those ( at least mine are ) I learned the hard way, but my AL 80's are spare tanks for visitors.

I was already checking the wallet for the money to buy the light !!

but then I read the entire post and was like ah crap!! got me !

If the local cold water shrimp are anything like the tropical shrimp....then can be pretty tricky to maintain.

myself ......Tube worms, clams ...inverts would make a nice educational attraction.

Any updates on the diver that went to the chamber? I understood it was more a precautionary step. but none the least, My thoughts are with her as well.

I tried on numerous suits before I decided on the Bare Tech Dry / HD Tri Lam. My reasoning was the light weight of the suit and availability to use more or less undergarments for climate control. Fast drying and durability of the suit, and BARE'S lifetime warranty on seams. Only 150 dives on it and ...

Out of curiosity, is this the size of most club dives ?? Good thing Sund Rock wasn't the dive site !! Maybe we should have Wal-Mart build next to the water so we have a larger parking lot, followed by Starbucks, Subway and a Brew Pub !! Actually I'll settle for great weather and SAFE diving with eve...

Will be there in the early AM ( 8am ) with another buddy from Vancouver, neither of us have dove the area and would like to tag along for a tour of the site ( bottle field specifically ) If possible. Haven't seen anyone mention Water or drinks yet for so I will be bring some.

I think those are questions you are going to have to ask the makers, not the board. Fact is both these two have made some impressive lights, better, cheaper price and HOMEGROWN GOODNESS. Each has made their own impressions on numerous people, while maintaining a professional attitude and providing a...

Went from a the Pistol grip UK C8 to Dusty's Z Light .....words cannot express how happy I am !!! With High Med Low Strobe and SOS .....length of burn and use of both hands ( goodman handle ) I would highly recommend the canister light. I don't notice the cord that much, and I have no wrist fatigue ...

Another thing to think about is diving as part of a 3 person team. Reduce the stress load, increase the safety for you and your buddy. If diving is the thing you love, and it brings joy to your heart, do it as long as you can. I am quite sure you can find people who are willing, able and trained to...

SPEECHLESS !! Thanks for sharing. And I thought I had the Bucket List done. Now I'm thinking Maldives over Thailand.
Now to go read your report again !

FYI Dash Point State Park is closed till further notice due to storm damage. And the KOA is the only other camp ground available ( not recommended ) I was so looking forward to staying a few days in the area to play in your sandbox !! Anyone have any suggestions for a 35' Motorhome with a tow vehicl...

It's in Des Moines, next to Salty's. We'll meet in the parking lot across kitty corner from Salty's, NOT the parking lot directly across the street from the restaurant. Here's a map! http://g.co/maps/6ptvp The large lot listed as Salty's Bakery on the map? I'm trying for the camp ground, and if it w...
