Did you just buy a Pelagian, or was it someone else ?

zoo_diver · 22nd September 2007, 15:54

Good pics -- how do you like that Pelagain unit?

That looks like Roger Ingebo on those pictures, or am i wrong Jani, is it you?

Looked at the pictures again, saw the Swedish flag on the left arm, would definitely say it is not Jani...

I am taking pictures and Roger is filming. And no, I would not put a swedish flag on my suit. Maybe on the inside only...

I like swedes and carrots too!

There is this small little thing between fins and sweds. i bet there isn't anything else.

Hi Jani,
Who did you dive with in Koh Tao? I am away down there next week, and haven;t decided whether to take the sport kiss or not.

Cheers

Actually we stayed at Koh Samui and dived with Big Blue / rebreatherlab.

Don´t know if you can get lime and O2 from Tao, but Andy has both at Samui.

For diving in general I think it is wise to go to Tao. All the dive sites are close to Tao. From Samui you have to take 1,5-2 hours speed boat ride to reach the sites. And that costs...

Samui has a lot more other things to do so it is a thing you need to figure out.

nice pictures fore sure,

but i found it weird. do you dive with not bail out tank, or is the pelagian set like that? i mean extra reg hose on the first stage?

Master Divers in Mae Haad did Draegers so I'd guess they'd have lime. They (allegedly) taught mix courses as well so may have O2.

I'm glad I never took my rebreather, the diving didn't justify it at all. The bottom time on an AL80 exceeded my attention span long before deco or gas limits.

Cheers,

Stuart
