Re: Hello Above & Below
I'm also planning to get one of these suspender-style, side-panel weight-release weight belt thingamadoos. I asked Santa last month and all he brought me was a stupid pony ... WTH am I supposed to do with a pony?!? Anyway, my Cousteau era mithril wetsuit wore-out and has been replaced, my same-era w...

Re: Hello Above & Below
I've been introduced to back-plate rigs lately -- *REALLY LIKE THE CONCEPT*. My tax bracket isn't ready to introduce me to them though. ZR felt good when I tried it -- looks to give me all the function I want and the price-range I need to operate within. Now I just need to figure out the sizing with...

Re: Hello Above & Below
Valuable input on the Deception Pass drift dive. One of my co-worker / dive buddies has suggested we do it. He may have the experience, I don't have enough from what you're saying. Also, I'm trying to update my BC -- some the problems my current one has given me ..... from his description of that dr...

Re: Hello Above & Below
Welcome to the club! Are you commercial diving or DM/instructors? Thank you. Mostly pulling weeds in marinas and some swim areas. It isn't glamorous, but the work is hard and I don't respect myself. :rofl: I've also been doing some zincs and a few other things under boats. I'd like to do more of th...

Re: Dry suit undergarments
Got my first drysuit experience last year working a slow-spot in snow melt. I just took what what fit from the rental shop, including the DUI drysuit. With all the air out and the 36lbs I used to sink my old school wetsuit, I couldn't get down and I was functionally chilled at best in a pond where i...
