An interview with Bonnier Corp.’s ScubaLab Director
Diving is the best sport in the world, but like all high-adrenaline activities, things can sometimes go sideways. When they do, your level of preparation can make all the difference.
The R-860 holds the top spot in IST Sports’ Pro Line of scuba regulators. Its R-8 first stage is a balanced diaphragm design that’s available with an optional environmental kit that prevents freezing when diving in cold-water conditions.
Kicking versatility through interchangeable blades is the name of the game with Cressi’s new Gara Modular free-diving fin. The standard blade is lightweight and provides a nice mix of power and flexibility.
Traveling divers who like jacket-style BCs are going to love SCUBAPRO’s GO. Although lightweight, this is a full-featured BC with a super-secure integrated weight system, huge cargo pockets with mesh reinforcements and zippered closures, lightweight shoulder strap buckles and large aluminum D-rings.
