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.

One piece of gear you might want to think about adding is a set of side cutters. Although I have never ran into small wire cable in fresh water, I have encountered it in salt water. A regular dive knife will not cut it. In fresh water I worry a lot more about fishing line tangles, but I do keep an eye out for the stainless downrigger cable that fishermen use just in case! I had to quit diving due to a couple of injuries. I still look at my gear and want to go diving again. I think I used the last or my argon on a welding job instead of a deep dive. Keep up the videos! 🙂
Recreational Master Diver w Public Safety Diver background here. Its obvious you've been tech diving for some time. After watching a few of your other vids thought I would comment here. I am impressed with the amount of gear you carry and your seamless transition between those pieces of gear, well done Mark. I was hoping that you would have talked about your DPV. I'm curious about what kind of real world range you get for its size. I'm always interested in the gear people use and why they have chosen it. Subscribed for professionalism. Happy hunting and be safe.
Just a question ? You probably don't read these anymore but why do you only use a single regulator? It is pretty apparent you are a professional why don't you run a octopus system on your regulator incase you need a back up? My instructor told me he wouldn't dive with another diver unless he had a octopus regulation system. On my open dive for my cert I actually had a regulator mal function and it was releasing all my air and wouldn't shut off .
Do you use the 100% O2 bottle for a bail out (carried with you during the dive for those who don’t know) as well as a surface emergency application, or just keep the bottle at the surface?
Great gear review , ? 3 or 4 grand worth ? + classes ? could you hit us with some $ in a vid ? Suits are pricey now too I bet , Ballpark to get set up ?
Excellent video, thank you so much. Last night my Husband and i was talking about maybe to take some diving classes. For being beginner, what would be cost to get started? I know some stuff more expensive than the other. But just hit me with a middle number please.
We have a lot of the same taste in gear. Great set up, thanks for sharing.
Very informative, really appreciate the video. I have been a surface hunter for a long time and am a fisheries biologist. After watching all your videos, they have been the inspiration needed to take the plunge and gear up for my next adventure.
Mega cool. Like
That is quite a list of equipment.
Great video Mark!
Suits & lead are missing from the story LOL
We need to get together and do some diving
Nice video. Very interesting. My 16 yr old son wants to get certified to scuba dive. I am sharing your video with him.
