Your Diving Pleasure Depends On The Equipment You Use

When you first start diving you're often unsure about what equipment you want in your diving arsenal. That knowledge comes with familiarity of the different gear available

...and the experience of a number of dives using the different types tools available.

To get some dives into your logbook, and build that experience, try a suba package like this one that JoeDiver fixed up for you. It's a great Scuba Gear Package - JoeDiver's TUSA Regulator, Octopus, BC and Gauges for the newly certified, and will give you many hours of diving fun.

I dove the Mares Abyss Scuba Regulator for close to ten years. So far I haven't found any other regulator that breathes upside down as easily as this one.

I found this regulator is one of high quality and dependability. It's a piece of life support equipment that's there when you need it most.

Looking for a new set of gauges, or maybe you want a backup just in case the battery dies in your computer.

Never hurts to be safe does it?

This Co-Pilot Slimline 3 Console gauge setup is perfect either way. You get a small profile, lightweight three gauge console that minimizes drag as you scuba.

The Zeagle gauges include max depth markers to 220-feet so you know how deep you dive, fast responding compass with top and side reading windows, and a pressure gauge with 5000-pound scale..

The console also has anchor capability so you can clip on a retractor to keep it close to your body, and help streamline your body's dive profile. That helps you push less water when you're finning, making you work less, and helping you preserve your air for a longer dive.

The PRO PLUS 2.1 DELUXE, W/QD COMP Dive Computer is ideal for the beginning diver giving you a screen display of large numbers and letters, with easily viewed graphics and icons.

Take your choice of the dive computer only, or add the optional compass for for navigation.

Buy this computer with the QD (quick disconnect) hose to carry it seperately from the regulator setup, or with a fixed hose configuration. An optional USB cable for computer integration is available.

The batteries are operator replaceable to save maintenance costs.

The PRO PLUS 2.1 DELUXE, W/QD COMP is simple to learn and easy to use and includes temperature readouts for convenient record keeping.

When I head for the dive site, I grab my Zeagle Ranger more often than any other buoyancy control device (BCD). I've worn it on so many dives that it's become a comfortable companion.

Here's a Zeagle BCD that'll give you hours of pure diving pleasure, and help you maintain horizontal buoyancy when you hover over, and admire, the reef.

Looking for a BCD that's light weight for travel, and a little easier on the wallet? The Cressi-Sub Aqualight Travel Scuba Buoyancy Compensator might be just the thing for your scuba travel bag.

Click the link above, and see if this is the BCD you're looking for.

Are you a cold water diver?

Midwestern divers don't have ready access to tropical blue waters and bath water warm diving all year long. When we jump into a stone quarry, and head for depths below 15-feet, we know frigid water awaits -- even in July and August when water at the surface is normally in the high 60s and low 70s.

The coldest I ever logged on a dive was 38-degrees in a stone quarry in southern Indiana, and thanks to my 7-mil wetsuit I stayed comfortable (except for my fingers. They got a little cold.).

You might be interested in giving this MENS 7mm Quantum Stretch Wetsuit some dive time. I dove a lot of times when my 7-mil kept me from suffering the shivers.

This 7mm comes in women's sizes also.
