Lot's of divers love to buy new equipements just for the pleasure to dive like a Xmas tree!! I am sure that if someday somebody discovers a way to dive with a gills instead of the SCUBA gear, a lot of people will stop diving because they will not have what to buy!! So that explains their need of diving with pony bottles, flares, strobes, tubes and whatever their money can buy! Marcos Davidovich.
