#askmark Have you heard of or tried the Truefin? It’s expensive so I was looking for a professional review.
Thanks!
I’ve only seen their website but, I can reach out and see if I can get a sample to test.
I’m always hesitant when I see lots of moving parts like that but, it’s an interesting concept.
what is ‘ocean bound’ plastics?
Most consumer plastics are deemed ocean bound as most plastic such as packaging and bottles end up in our oceans. The plastics that most brands use are often collected from waterways so they don’t reach the ocean. But it’s basically plastic bottles
@Scuba Diver Magazine oh please, I recognize marketing BS when I hear it.
If cars would mimic the innovation level in the dive industry, we would still be using steam engins! I don’t think hedge funds buying diving manufacterers and training agencies is the way forward.
Cool bro
Love your product videos. Split fins, not my favorite, am a ScubaPro fan but think the S-Tek too gimmikee. Will stick with my Novas. What are your thoughts?
I kinda like the new S-Tek Fins. I probably wouldn’t worry too much about the trim weights but I do like the stiffened material. I’m still waiting on a sample to try them out though…
@Scuba Diver Magazine Look forward to your review.
👍😎🤿! Great thanks for the new gear update!
I wonder if the Atomic TFX is essentially a re-designed Scubapro D400. I remember that there is something unique about the D400’s exhaust design that was not (!) continued in Scubapro’s X650 and D420 (which look somewhat similar). Could it be that Atomic has taken up the D400’s exhaust design elements again in a modernized version?
Well it’s definitely the same diaphragm exhaust combo style. This was also used in dräger second stages for a while. It definitely takes many design queues from d400. Hopefully better springs and poppets tho.
The engineers who started Atomic left SP over 25 years ago, taking the design with them. It’s a very comfortable reg. Had the opportunity to dive a prototype about a year and a half ago. The yoke attachment on the production reg is amazing…one and a quarter turns locks it onto the valve.
@MikeR DiveR — This is nice to hear. And yes, I heard that former Scubapro engineers started Atomic, and that the similarity to the D400 is no accident.
Cheers Mark!
I have a question. I have an Atomic venom 2 mask I also have a beard. I was wondering if you had a better mask recommendation for a beard that you have found has slit vision but seals with a beard?
I have a Hollis M1 and its been pretty good for me.
Hey Mark does your mask seal good with your mustache? I have to trim mine down 1/2”? Keep the videos coming.
Shearwater could have introduced the Peregrine with AI in 2023 instead of just two colour variants. Even with a €100 surcharge, if you like. But hope dies last.
I recently got the Perdix 2, and it’s awesome! However, if the Peregrine was an AI computer, I likely would have bought that instead. I’m sure I’m not the only one to make the AI recommendation to Shearwater concerning the Peregrine. Now if the Perdix 2 had gps, it would damn near be perfect!
same… I was hoping.
Not even AI, that is what the Pedix is for, but at least add a compass!!!
I’ve never had issues with fin buoyancy between salt and fresh water to such an extent that I had to add weights to them. Is that a common problem?
I’m gonna release fins that have changeable gravity ….. Marketing at its finest.
Never have I ever thought to make my fins heavier. 🤔🙄😂
No, but switching to a dry suit does. These are aimed at Tec and/or Dry Suit Divers (me). Traditionally, dry suit divers will use a heavy fin such as the ScubaPro Jet Fin or/and wear ankle weights. These solve that problem, assuming the weights are variable.
Going from scuba to open water in a few weeks. Think I’m gonna go with the peregrine for my computer. Nothing too crazy for a newbie.
Shearwater are a well trusted brand in the diving community. And the peregrine is a top notch dive computer, especially for beginners
🏔😂👍
