Scuba Gear Reviews by Ryan C.

Rating: Love my Outrigger 6/2/2007

Have now completed 8 dives with my Oceanic Outrigger and love it. Have done everything from 125 wreck dives to shallow shore dives. This is by far the most comfortable BC I have ever used. Replaced the Outrigger HLT cumberbun with a standard one that I ordered from Oceanic as I dont need the front lift system. Have not experienced the tank slip issues mentioned by the other reviewer...my tank secures very tightly. Oceanics tank secure mechanism is the same as about 90% of the BCs out there. My only complaint would be for more rings to secure my gear. This is a great rec diver BC for local diving (too bulky and heavy for traveling).

Mares X-Vision Mask
Rating: Great mask 1/21/2007

Great field of view on this mask with very low volume. The downside on a low volume mask is that if it leaks...it fills up very quickly. Had this problem initially and had to shave my mustache on a recent trip to Cozumel. The mask then sealed very well.
