Anybody looking for a Fusion?

Post by LCF »

A guy in Vancouver has a Fusion AND Mk3 undergarment for sale for $950 (http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/gear-e ... s-ds4.html). I got a screaming deal on mine and paid more than half again as much. Just thought I'd share this, because Vancouver isn't all that far away.

I would, but my back kick just isn't good enough yet...

Diving. . . is an active physical form of meditation. It is so silent- You're like a thought.

SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES. NOT REALLY GOOD FOR
ANYTHING, BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE
STAIRS.

How is the process of getting in and out of the suit? I dove with someone that has one for the first time last week and the suit looks great (so did the diver). It did, however look like a royal PITA to get into.

There are a couple of tricks to getting in and out of a Fusion, and once somebody's shown you what they are, it's not a pain at all. It's MUCH easier to get into than my compressed neo suit is.

Thanks! My Bare is about 7 years old now and is about ready to be relegated to a back up suit. I was looking at the Hollis suits and the Fusion. I guess it's time to demo a Fusion........

Eric, I love my Fusion. I love my Fusion. I have no desire ever to dive any suit other than my Fusion.

YOU need a can light.
