So what fin are u recommending if one wants to flutter and not frog kick? Getting into diving recently and we're about to pick up a pair of rk3 HD. But curious what you recommend instead?

Just followed along on this video...will put handy work to the test on Monday at Vobster...wish me luck! Thanks very much

Just watching the series in order. Great vids! Very well presented 😊

bought a copy of this from ali express. works very nicely

I problem I had with the Tecline is that it loosens while on the neck by itself, so you have to adjust just before you enter the water on every dive. Does this also happens to you? Changed the steel buckle system for the plastic press and release and it does the job for me. Excellent mask, totally brutal field of view.

I have the Radical in clear did not notice the glare coming in or annoying me but I find the nose pocket slightly too big and therefore hard to equalize and the lens sticking to my forehead. Has this happened to you or anyone else using the mask? I might get a back-up mask for next dice holiday, either Apex VX1 or Aqualung Plasma (same as Apeks but cheaper).

RK-4...

Man Your comment about the lanyard and boltsnap is so eye opening...I never thought of it even though it annoyed me so much having that thing dangling... Also, the carry box should indeed have a way to store the torch with either attached with preference towards the boltsnap of course. Now am a fan and subscriber :)

This light is 1400lm as per test done by scubadiving. I know that the majority of the stuff is done in China but this one (from the ads specs perspective) feels like classic China product. Like old boomboxes with 1000 watts. It does the thing but why it is so hard to be honest :)

Wow fantastic, and that safety stop! We did this very dive a few years back, we had the best time, also went up to Mozambique for a weeks diving.

I've been researching dive lights since mine do not focus beam. Glad I tuned in. Please record this comment for the drawing. OH YEAH, love that battery charge feature. td

Hi Andy, really interested in SCRs , Mares horizon, although I am advanced level diver only with more than 120 dives. Is it possible to book a test dive with The ROHO for testing the Mares Horizon ? I am Flying to Newcastle, and to South Shields next month mid.

Thanks for sharing, diving in Malta once, very similar situation, nothing that obvs from dive about 6 did pretty much same profile but a girl got bent, turns out she had a really hot shower.... When u said u got in car turned heaters up yo max etc... I thought ummmn could that have done it? 🤔 If you were fully clothed but still cold enough to have to get all the heating on maybe you raised body temp too quickly and a nitro bubble expanded too quickly as a result? Any what a scary thing glad u got through it...

I would just like to say your pretty spot on I started my BSAC at Christmas times and had booked a holiday to Egypt I thought I'd be able to complete it before going away and be able to dive in Egypt needless to say the club route for open water is rather slow so when I eventually arrived in Egypt without having completed my open water I paid a PADI center while on holiday to get certified and have since started my sports diver no holiday booked this time as I have a better idea of just how long it will take had BSAC had a partner center last year I would have probably booked my holiday there instead of sharm

Best mask ever I have two mask the frameless synergy 2 from scubapro and the vx2 n I like more vx2 more then anything so it’s a 💩 review and let me telling u in ur 👂 the synergy 2 best then any mask u touch it before

Hi, thanks for the video. One question.... what's your conclusion after 2 years of use with Backscatter Macro Wide 4300? Is lumens power enough for underwater video with small camera like GoPro or TG7?

That’s a VERY grey room.

Did the Tiger shark dive at Gan and fuvamullah, it's an amazing experience, indeed.

Greetings, great video, lovely experience. Just wanted to know what's that HUD , mounted over your mouth peice? Is it a dive computer ?

I use Xdeep EX1.

Great video

I’m diving RK3 HD. How do these compare to the HD ? Something lighter would be great for travel, we’re doing a liveaboard and have paid for extra weight to make sure we can get all the necessities in with the RK3’s included 🤣

bro got extra jackets

Andy, really pleased that your outcome was good. Death or long term paralysis really put's a crimp in SCUBA diving. Years back I was on a course (nothing to do with diving) and a comment the instructor made was (something like) 'Disaster planning is so difficult because a disaster is what happens when the situation exceeds the plan' - In other words, with diving, you dive as safely as you can but human physiology (for each of us, as an individual and virtually moment by moment) is variable. So the dive that you might do safely tomorrow, can gove you the bends today. LIFE: It's not about avoiding risks, you can't, it's about minimizing them. That's the best that any of us can do.

Nice one mate , it’s simple as that

Thanks for posting...

My mate has ordered one today as a primary, wish he'd seen this first Andy. Good review.

How do you prep a UV lens ?

8:49 holy Christmas tree diver haha my sensory issues would be freaking out that is way too much Shit clipped off for me personally glad it works for y’all…. also interesting way to sling a tank with that 2in webbing or whatever that is cheers safe diving.

Ur review Not fair not fair at all bro . vx2 is an awesome mask if u dont like coz of ur nose or the volume space or u like single lens go to old version the vx1 he is more beautiful then those two masks bty to be lil bit fair look to the matrial look how this mask build bty um gone make order vx2 even without measuring it n bty now his price is 108 -125 euro n that’s fair enough

I've got Hollis bat fins, rk3 and seawing supernova gorilla for travel. I can't get a good fit on my rk3 so they don't get much water time. My Hollis are absolutely the go to for power but they are a bit heavy for warm water diving or travel. Seawing is good for travel. Those tecline look like something I should try for weight and power. Thanks for the video

Much ado around about nothing. THere's a pouch in the bag that you can put additional items. Personal choice for where the switch is. Freedive spearfishermen prefer lanyards. Hunting in large caves it's better to use a wide spread light.

Great tip. I have steel HP and aluminium LP tanks and instead of using the converter yoke which I don't care for, I just change between yoke and din. It really is quite simple as you demonstrated.

Are the foot pockets on Techlight bigger than the RK3’s when comparing the same size? Thx

I like the torch and the LEDs around the button.

Thanks for sharing Bud. Great description. Scary thoughts about how the body has reacted to this situation. 🤝👍✊ Full watch and listen.

for me it well be blue

Did this trip on the Superior Dec 23, sent my regards to George. Love the Barge, though it did seem very popular with a few other boats. Looking forward to Southern Solitude trip next month on the MV 7 Seas.

Thanks very much. Saved me small fortune

Hi Andy, thanks for the great video, particularly the part about using the ball to hold the spanner in place because mine was a pig to undo as well! Just one question - do you know if the black plastic part between the adapter and the body be tight between the two? I changed my DS4 stage reg and everything works great but this separator is very slightly loose.

I bought one for a backup torch

Been here as well! Great folks, great diving! Love this place!!

Hi, unfortunately I missed the live Q&A: Glad you're recovered now! You mentioned that you use Nitrox for deeper dives in Malta, but at the sorts of depths you were at in Capernwray you could have used a fairly high mix of Nitrox which would be ideal for the long relatively shallow dives that you were making. Do you think Nitrox would have made any difference? Was there any reason you didn't use it?

I am booked in for the PFO closing for May so it’s taking approximately 5 months to do on nhs :-)

Hi Andy it would not let me comment

Glad you made a good recovery. I got cns dci end of August this year. Headache, double vision, balance all over the place. 2 weeks daily at Rugby and another 2 weeks for symptoms to settle. Sadly most likely due to a PFO so knocked the diving on the head.

Hello

Wish I'd had all this fantastic detail and information before i first dived this in 1982. The lifeboat still had it's prop then.😮

At 39:40 you say you were breathing 100% O2 at 18 metres and from that you calculate it was ppO2 of 18.... MATE BACK TO THE POT WITH YA!

Good to see you back on the mend Andy.
