We developed all the lights , scooters, etc. Ajax makes the lights since Lamar English quit. Rat makes the reels, backup lights. I make the scooters. Brownies makes the rebreathers. We did not develop them, Jack did, but I was the test pilot, since I am hardest to kill , bend, scare or get to quit, and would breath water if that is what it takes to win. I recognized immediately that his idea would work, and that theh rest is bullshit, and we proved that. We do not use shit , only the good stuff, and even if DUI is dumb enough to give dry suits to liars who have never done jack shit, and never will, I will still use their suit , since it is the best, but I will buy my own from my own dealer, and that is whoever the fuck I want it to be. I a the main sponsor of WKPP, and as such do not have to compromise anything for anybody, and never will. If one of our sponsors makes a peice of shit, I am the first to tell them. Nobody has to like me, but nobady can ever say I told them to use something that did not work. - G -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
