Scuba Gear Reviews by Gary Sanders

XS Scuba International Valve
Rating: every tank should have a valve like this 6/30/2008

For those of us who use both yoke and DIN regulators, this kind of valve is the right idea. These should be installed on all tanks used by serious divers.

Innovative Razor Line Cutter
Rating: nice concept, compact, cheap, sheath is poor 6/30/2008

Nice compact cutter for dealing with kelp and lines and grasses underwater. Inexpensive. Compact. Color makes it easy to locate. But I bought two of these and in one, the cutter falls out of the sheath. A bit better tolerancing and this would have worked. Too bad. It really should have a hole for a clip or biner. So a good product but easy to loose.

Trident Reef Hook
Rating: Inexpensive and does the job 12/28/2006

A simple, inexpensive hook that keeps you in place. Tucks away neatly in a BC pocket. Useful for other things as well. The challenge is hooking the reef without damaging the reef.

Trident Reef Hook
Rating: no more being dragged up and down by those anchor lines 9/20/2006

Just right for hanging on the anchor line from pitching boats while doing your stops. Just pull it out of a pocket, clipped to D-ring at one end, clipped to the line on the other end and settle back and hover while this Jon line goes up and down and takes out the pitching. Good clip for grabbing the anchor line. Or a line set out for your hang.
