In this episode, we return after a bit of a hiatus to dive deep into the latest diving gear and answer your burning questions. We kick off by discussing recent dive conditions and the long gap since our last episode.

Bubble Troubles this week include Nic's challenge with standard reels being too large for her hands and how the Apeks Lifeline Halo Spool has made deploying her SMB so much easier. Jim talks about the ongoing challenge of accurately predicting and reporting visibility during dives, touching on how AI might be the future solution.

We also tackle Diver Questions about retrofitting XDEEP wings with quick-release buckles and how the popular Shark Pulsar Strobe has been flying off the shelves.

Our Product of the Week is the Fourth Element J2 base layer, perfect for staying comfortable in your drysuit, especially in warmer weather. We discuss its innovative design, eco-friendly materials, and why it’s a must-have for serious divers.

SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss the next episode, where we continue to explore the latest in dive gear and share tips from our diving adventures.
