Re: Free lead, yes there’s a catch.

Tec lead uses VPM-B deco model and I am pretty sure are sewn in black fabric rather than all those fancy colors.

Bubbles and Suds PSU

We are the Wednesday group of the North end and have been for like 8 years now. We recently discussed moving to another day during the summer as parking in the Mukilteo area is truly a challenge due to the Mukilteo Farmers market. Thus the Bubbles and Suds group will be holding our weekly dives on T...

Re: Bubbles ‘n Suds 3/14?

Yeah there is a huge exchange right in the middle of our usual dive time so no dives posted for this week. Would have been ugly. Stay tuned as Bubbles and Suds is alive and well. I think we had 10 at the bar last week.

Re: Looking for instructor

Looking for the Seattle area, he lives near Snoq pass so no matter what it's a travel for him. He is coming with us on a cruise and there are two dive excursions that I intend on going on.

Re: Bubbles and Suds 12/6 - T-DOCK

Yeah a 12' foot exchange was beginning right after splash. The current never got out of hand, but it was certainly there. We had a seal hunting with our lights and that is always fun. I have some video but not real great.
Viz below 60' was about 10'

Re: Dry glove system with O rings

As for the seal deteriorating faster, i believe that YES the exposed part of the wrist seal is a weakness. I bought a wheel barrel tube and cut some pieces that slide over that part for protection. I do not believe the part of the wrist seal that is within the dry glove system will be impacted.

Re: Switched over to drysuit finally!

BCD or drysuit for trim is subjective and in my opinion make more of a difference in terms of type of diving you are doing. As for the gloves it is my opinion that you want that extra seal within the dry glove should you have a catastrophic dry glove failure, like maybe cutting one open on something...

Where - Edmonds Underwater Park When - Show early enough to splash at 7PM We tend to have a lot of early arrivals and if it looks like we are all there we start getting groups in the water. So we may have some entering as early as 6:45. Hit me up here if you know you are going to be late.... Rorys a...

Re: air consumption curiosity

In my opinion it all boils down to your breathing. If you have smooth controlled breathing I would wager to say that your consumption would be identical. It ALMOST sounds like some discussion to try and solidify your NEED to have a dry suit. Some would argue that a dry suit would be less efficient i...
