No, not since 2019. Where we split up the company. And decided to no longer act as an equipment manufacturer, but solely focus on Education instead.

Do you UTD folks use the long hose concept in CCR? Just from looking at the CCR unit in the video

Yes, we always have a lonhhose donatable on every platform we use. The video shows a PSCR but the same goes for CCR snd Side Mount

I have the heated gloves 2.0, and in winter doing dives at 5° and scooter rides are comfortable. Without them my fingers would freeze. But an extra liner over them is not needed. They also let you stay warm even ifnyour gloves flood.

For my light setup (cordless BugBlue TL5200P) I can fit 5 or 6 cookies on the side of the bungee which I love. The backup light can fit if there are no cookies, but in exiting the cave do you just start shoving the cookies you pulled in your pocket?
@UTD_ScubaDiving
@UTD_ScubaDiving Ай бұрын
Yes, we teach to only store the markers, ( we only use REM’s ) temporarily on the light head. Like if you know that there is a T coming up. Or if you know you will be making a jump. On the way out we can pick them up and stow them on the light, while taking out the pigtail from our right pocket and no transferring the stowed REM onto the pigtail for yes to stuff them back in our pocket.

Just use the Razor goodman handle. You can lock and unlock either your primary or your backup onto the same Goodman handle. Solved all these problems.
@UTD_ScubaDiving
@UTD_ScubaDiving Ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment, even though that Razor handle is a nice product. We can't really use the bungee system for stowing the light and placing markers temporarily. Also when your primary light is a canister light that needs to be stowed.
@avieorbb
@avieorbb Ай бұрын
I use a cannister light (Nanight C3) and I have a razor adaptor mount for it. The soft handle stays on the wrist but you can twist the light to unlock it from the glove and stow it away. It’s very easy to add bungee to the glove to stow cookies onto it temptation per your use-case. Not a razor shill, just a product that solved a problem for me.

It is highly recommended, we always promote it. In my time as a UTD Instructor I checked each and every tank for CO. My tanks and those of my clients. Some, fortunately few times I had a positive result. In all of those cases there was a portable fuel powered compressor involved.

It’s a good idea to analyze air tanks in Bonaire if you plan to dive deep since they fill so many x32 tanks.

That is done when we assemble the gear.
@mistafong
@mistafong Ай бұрын
Interesting that some things would be tested twice (I'm assuming, for example, that you breathe off both second stages during assembly and then obviously breathe again during the match), but others wouldn't. A video of your assembly procedure would be good to see. Thanks for the reply and the content!

I never take my wing off because of the hassle of putting it back together, but I think I’ll start just to save some space. Maybe a video on quickly assembling after you arrive? The more tools I need the more likely I’ll forget one and be stuck haha

Well the wing and backplate are two separate pieces. Held only in place by the wingnuts from the twinset. No tools required.

this is nuts, 50 failure points everywhere, to bulky, the purpose of completely isolated tanks left and right is gone, to much going on, this is absolutely not for caving. you don't want to switch regulator with sidemount?, stay with a double tank backmounted. IT's nice you try things out, but make things better, not worse.

Hi, I've been diving with "Fin Clips" for several years now, & really like them. Just open the clip, throw the fin on the deck, slip your foot in, & put weight on your heel, done. They really come into their own on a dive boat, easy on & easy off.
