Innovative Aqua Maraca Signaling Device
Rating:
Not noisy enough 9/28/2007
These are great if you are trying to signal someone fairly close in proximity to you but on a recent trip to Cozumel, I could not get our dive guides attention to signal that we were going up. He was no more than 25 feet away. But like I said, if you want to signal your dive buddy, who should be fairly close to you anyway, than it will serve its purpose. Was this review helpful? Yes No
Neosport by Henderson 3/2mm Jumpsuit. / Wetsuit
Rating:
Great buy for the money 9/28/2007
This is the first 3mm wetsuit I have purchased and Im very happy with it. Albeit a little loser in fit than Im accustomed to, it was a cinch to put on, manuverable & non-binding both above and under water, kept me nice and toasty in some fairly cold thermoclines, and cheap in price. What more could you ask for. Was this review helpful? Yes No
XS Scuba Folding Wetsuit Hanger

Sturdy and does the job 9/28/2007
We purchased these for our last dive trip to Cozumel and they worked great. Fit perfectly into our dive bag for travel, very lightweight yet sturdy in design. The swivel hook was perfect for those awkward hanging spots. An added bonus were the two additional hooks that worked great for hanging our do-rags, hoods, or gloves. Was this review helpful? Yes No

Good bag 9/24/2007
This bag is a lot bigger than it looks. We just returned from a dive trip to Cozumel and the bag easily fit: two sets of fins (one set in the pocket and one in the main compartment), two sets of boots, a mens large BC vest, a full 3mm wetsuit, a 3mm shorty, two dive lights, two knives, a backup mask in its hard case, two sets of gloves, two maracas, two writing slates, two full size mesh dive bags, and a few other do-dads. If the airlines are strict, it could easily exceed limited dimensions so we cinched it down with some tie straps but we were within .5 lbs of the weight limit. Its a great bag and very sturdy. No problems with tipping from an upright position. Was this review helpful? Yes No
XS Scuba Cortez Adjustable Strap Dive Fins

Good fin for the money 6/18/2007
We purchased these fins as a beginner set for our 14 year old son who just completed his Open Water certification. After borrowing an old pair of dads full-foot split fins, he commented on how much of a difference there was with his manuverability, propulsion, and ease of use. He has only used them on his four check-out dives but seems to like them a lot. They are a good starter set for a first time diver. Was this review helpful? Yes No
