]]> Malcolm has asked the following question: What is the main difference between the oceanic eos yoke Regulator and the non DVT-Din regulator? What is better?   Reference:    Oceanic EOS Scuba Regulators   Hello, The DVT refers to a spring loaded plug that is built into some of the Oceanic regulators that seal the first stage opening and stops  water flowing in if the first stage was accidently dropped in the water.  As far as what version is best? The DIN is a completely different configuration meant to be used with a DIN valve. But the basic answer is that the DVT is a great add on and does make it a better regulator.  Thanks for your interest in scuba diving.

]]> Question: My husband has a mustache which has made snorkeling nearly impossible due to water pouring into his mask.  Can you tell me if you sell as mask for men with a mustache and if so, what set would you  recommend? 

Answer: Normally folks with Mustache will go with a nose purge style mask as it will always leak but at least they can clear easily by exhaling via thier nose.  He may also want to put vaseline on it to help seal along with trimming below nose.  Check out the Mask Category and look for Masks with Nose Purges.

It is here now.  This is the Dive Computer of the Future.  Just look in your dive mask and there it is with your depth, how much more and your deco status.  I love this stuff and it is not that expensive when you think about it.  Click Here
