Gulf Coast Scuba

Flocking awesome day out at the Blue Lagoon! 🦩✨. The Gulf Coast Scuba rebreather squad took over the today. A little rain didn’t hurt the vis too much, and you honestly couldn’t ask for a better group of people to spend a surface interval with. If you see a flock of flamingos leaving no bubbles behind... mind your business. 😉

learned the hard way that delaying your 5-year service can have tear-able consequences. 🌊
That little rip in his DiveCAN connector gave water a VIP pass straight into his electronics and solenoid.
Remember kids: O-rings aren’t the only things that age. Change your DiveCANs at year 5, or prepare to explain to your spouse why you need a new head basically. Thanks for letting us use your footage!

Pretty sure my dive gear is wondering why it’s breathing thin mountain air at 11,000 feet. 🤔🚴‍♂️Took the InReach Mini out of its usual underwater element and dragged it up a mountain in Colorado. Zero cell signal out here, but this little lifesaver doesn’t care if I’m surrounded by sharks or pine trees.

Ever feel like your dive computer is playing mind games with you? 🧠🦞
Our local rebreather bruh is breaking down a major upgrade from the Shearwater Perdix 2 to the Perdix 3: Color-coded setpoints! 🎨
Perdix 2: High setpoint? White. Low setpoint? Also white. Classic, but requires some squinting.
Perdix 3: High setpoint pops in green, low setpoint switches to purple.
The win: Instructors (and your own brain) can instantly spot the correct setpoint from a distance. Because the only thing that should be confusing underwater is your buddy’s terrible hand signals. 🤷‍♂️🐟

Big tech upgrade vs. Old-school savings (featuring Jim’s tactical pencil). 🤫Watch Jim break down the Perdix 3 vs. Perdix 2. Love the new features? Great. Love saving cash? Even better. We’ve still got original Perdix 2 stock on sale for $895.

No bubbles = no trouble getting close. 🫧🚫
The stealth mode of a rebreather lets you blend right into the reef. Side note: Infinitely impressed with what an iPhone can capture underwater these days! 📸🤯
