aquaCorps Back Issues - Collector Issues ($49.50 each) aquaCorps Magazine was born at a very exciting time, and it certainly greatly influenced the technical diving revolution of the late 80’s to early 90’s. Wired Magazine described it as “The Sea Geek’s Bible”, and if you ever wanted confirmation of this, just talk to pretty much any technical diver of note today. They will all agree on one thing—the publication that greatly influenced their personal diving was aquaCorps. As Michael Menduno describes it: “the independent journal for experienced divers”. The resulting prose was greedily consumed by every diver wanting to know more about the evolution of sport diving—the new and exciting movement—high-tech diving. aquaCorps and included incredbile and provocotive articles such as the 'Call of the Wah Wah' . Now from the dusty archives at DFP - we discovered a number of back issues. All but a few editions have sold out however 3 issues remain. (N9, N10 and N13.)

Blue Print for Technical Dive Planning The Chart of Technical Dive Planning basically covers the Where, Why, with Who, How and What-if's of each dive plan. We maintain that a detailed and well thought out Dive Plan should be constructed for each and every dive, from the Open Water Level to Deep Mixed Gas, Cave and Rebreather Diving. This is very important because divers sometimes take their experience for granted, presume a dive will workout fine and overlook some or all of the parts of properly planning a dive. When things go wrong and your dive plan did not include a contingency to cover that problem, resolving it becomes more difficult. This can increase a diver's risk and stress levels exponentially. 86K |
