Zambeck, I see you have stuck your stupid head up again. You have no such
information, and you know nothing about dive gear because you do not have
any that anyone with a working brain would own.

Why don't you reproduce that post you put on the IANTD list about you love
of Poseidon shower head regs "because they do so well for you deep air
diving".

You are one of the worst strokes in diving, and you have the track record to
prove it. Nothing that come out of your mouth is anything but stupid ,
dangerous, misinformation , bullshit and nonsense.
