Hi Zaid Were you trained in Florida? These guys really know there stuff and should be listened to at all times, especially the cave guys, they do some real stuff and all should dive like they do. I am going to sell all my kit like they do to people that dont know better and then buy all the really cool kit from brownies. I think you should do the same, fancy it this winter?
