The pendulum re-breather looked cool also.

I also got to dive a Yokohama (SP?) helmet that was sweet. What a great helmet to dive.

I got to play safety diver for a while with a Super-lite.

In this case I am the safety diver with the Super-lite:

Luis,

Looks like you had lots of new toys to play with this weekend. Did you take along your Phoenix regs to play with or were you too busy with the hardhats and rebreathers to do any vintage open circuit stuff?
Too DAAM Many double hoses, It's not a hobby, it's an addiction.

I had all kinds of other double hose regulators which I showed to others, but there were too many toys to play with. :D

Luis you need to meet an acquaintance of mine. His specialty is hobby is vintage and home built rebreathers. He is kind of a strange old bird that off hand you would write off as a nutcase.... until you learn that he holds a bunch of patents and really is the guy the US Seals come to with rebreather issues. His home page. http://www.atlimp.com/home.htm

Thanks for the link. I have heard of him before (it might have been from you) and I have read some of his stuff. It is interesting. I wish I had the time to play with more stuff.
