So…you’re ready to buy your first scuba tank. That’s great.
But, before you do, there are some questions you’ll want to answer to make sure you are spending your hard-earned money as wisely as possible.
Having learned to dive late in life I made up for it in my first year by clocking up 120+ open water dives in places from the UK to Australia. I went from a non diver to a technical deco diver in 9 months and loved every second of it. Since having kids not been able to travel as much so spend my time watching videos and reminiscing, hope you enjoy my site as much as I have making it.
Hello dear.. I would like to ask you for me as a beginner and don't want to carry heavy tank, what do you advise me to buy? *If you send it to me here in Egypt – Cairo, what it will cost me? Thanks for your help..
My word of advice on buying your first tank don't you have to go to a dive shop and get your tank filled anyway a lot of times they charge anywhere from 5 to $10 to fill your tank or you can just rent one of their tanks for like 15 bucks and then you don't got to worry about it and being certified and your annual inspections because honestly what happens is you buy an aluminum 80 and you use it a few times and then you decide oh I want to start doing two Dives when I go out so now you have to rent a tank Plus have yours filled and then a year goes by they want 35 bucks to inspect the stupid thing so you do that and then the second year goes by and you're like f*** it and just rent two tanks when you go out and then the tank you purchased just sits in your basement I've got one I've actually got three sitting in my basement for like the last 15 years
steel vs. aluminum. there should be commentary regarding the weight savings in aluminum. aluminum is preferred for safety reasons – that should be said. catastrophic steel rust at the bottom should be a noted concern. how to remove water from within a steel should be commented on. steel is harder, tougher, but is corrosion prone. higher bar pressures possible in steel.
My mistake was buying a too light steel 12 ltr tank. When u want to use ur 12 liter for double with drysuit then that extra heavy 15. kilo 12 liter tank does come in handy. Now i'm stuck with a stupid 12 steel tank of 13.4 kilo instead of 15.3 kilo.
Nice video, as manufacturer of cylinders, we know about cylinder itself , but not this application information, very helpful for communication with customers,thanks
1:26 Scariest take off ever lol, late rotate followed by near 90 degree ascent. Is that footage from some sort of air trials, or stunt demo take off? If not that pilot should be fired.

Good information, but the silly head turning is distracting.

Every driver should have a glock on them When diving beacuse what if a shark atacks them
Oh my god can this guy stop switching sides and looking up before he speaks each and every time this made me so angry
That plane at the end looks like it's at Gilboa Quarry in OH. Fun dive quarry.
What is a good brand of starter equipment?
The way this guy looks to & away from the camera makes me laugh. This guy is a savage. c:
