I should probably just pull my copy of "Wetsuit and Drysuit maintenance and repair" off the shelf and do some reading - lol http://airspeedpress.com/divesuit.html
is it possible to replace the "stitched" type of seals on whites drysuits, or do I need to send it back to the manufacturer? (I don't mind trying either way I guess ... just want to know what I'm...
Thanks folks - with how little diving I've been doing, considering if I should replace seals or just send the suit to eBay :D
Aloha, Tim
It's been a year since I put my Whites Tropical drysuit into storage, folded neatly into a bag and stored under my bed. For storage all seals were dusted with talc and the ankle seals were folded...
ahh - makes me miss the water - You have some really cool critters to watch Bob - thank you for sharing.
Aloha, Tim
Love the crab shot Lynne - thanks for sharing - What is the orange "bed" in the background?
O2, Helium, air fill/transfill whip
This was my second home made fill whip and has remained unused since building (diving got sidelined shortly after building)
All components are connected via...
Good point Submariner - the one student I had that really struggled with mask clearing was a woman - we spent nearly 6 months working on it (off and on) and she never was able to get comfortable...
agreed - quite often I find the same to be true, just taking my mask off and putting it back on (not even trying to reposition) seems to resolve some of those pesky drips that just won't stop :S

Glad it arrived safe and sound - hope it gives you many years of good service :)

Moving ... maybe to Wahiawa (still on Oahu)
Aloha, Tim

Thank you DMX :)
Gotta move, so it's time to get rid of a few more things:
1) Bands: both are the 3" variety $50 each + $10 shipping
8" (Highland Mills I think) for larger steel cylinders - were being used...
Tom-Tom for Divers? Looks like it even has underwater mapping :)
It's actually been a wonderful move for many reasons - Catch me on chat and I'll tell you about all that God has been doing :)
btw - if you and your wife want to make those "Sandwiches" - here's...
Not being on Maui has made it less common to bump into all my Scuba related friends... that's one of the downsides to having moved - nobody comes to Oahu for the diving ;) (well, not as many people...
Nice to be back Lynne - I think it's less than 20 dives this year ... lots of other good things going on in life, but definitely a blessing to get wet again.
Aloha, Tim
Got out diving with some visiting friends today to Kahe Point. I decided to focus on practicing my macro photography ... didn't have much success with it (very few in focus shots) Then on the way...
I was surprised at how much less prone my mask was to falling off when giant striding with scooter (not that it falls off often ... only twice) - it's almost like you don't feel the water hit your...

I did about 200-300 entries this way - course the drop was only 3ft, not 8ft like you are talking about.
The main goal I had was to have the scooter...
That is a nice prize to win, hope it included accommodations and airfare!- Have fun :)
Thanks all, for sharing in my joy :)
My 'opinion' on training kids is that is is MUCH easier because there is very little 'unlearning' to do. As we get older it gets harder to 'bend' our...
I recently introduced my nephew to Scuba and during the first Scuba pool session we did some mask clearing (we worked on it via snorkeling the day before as well) - about 15 minutes into the pool...
So glad you are OK Lynne - and thank you for the reminder that where there is water, there needs to be respect.
