“The Aeris Jetpack is a new travel wing BCD just recently released. I’ve seen many different travel BCDs come and go, but this one is quite different. My recent dive trip demonstrated just how functional this piece of equipment is. The benefits it offers whilst travelling, the ease of setup, and the benefits whilst diving are unrivalled for travel BCDs. With the ability to transform this BCD into a backpack, it makes a traditional dive bag unnecessary. Also, the BCD comes with a detachable dry storage area for commuting. The idea is that you can fit your dive gear in the “wet area” of the BCD, and have a place for your dry items, like towels and clothes. This works quite well for most of your dive equipment, even your wetsuit, although you may have to transport your fins separately from the Jetpack. There are special Aeris fins that will fit into the Jetpack, but if you’re partial to your current fins, or appreciate a pair of split fins, they may be too large to fit into the unit. That being said, I’ve seen people strap their fins on the sides of the Jetpack, too. Problem solved. The BCD is quite easy to set up, and comes in one size only, as it is fully adjustable to fit anyone. The waist strap

cumberbund is removable for travel, and has quick release dive pockets that slide on. You attach your shoulder straps to the weight pocket compartments on your waist to make the BCD fit properly. The shoulder straps can be adjusted both at the top and the bottom, making the BCD a comfortable fit for you. As a wing BCD, you’ll notice on the surface that it will have a tendency to push you onto your chest, like any wing will do. Underwater, since it is all rear inflation, you can turn and pivot much easier than in a traditional BCD. The inflator hose is a standard inflator, and the BCD is easy to deflate with the hose exhaust, top exhaust and bottom rear exhaust. It is very good for tropical destinations, and if you were to be diving in colder water, you may need to wear a separate weight belt to compensate for the added weight you’ll need for thicker, more buoyant wetsuits. Also, all the adjustable straps on the BCD can be coiled and kept tight to make you more streamlined and uncluttered on a dive. All in all, it is a fantastic travel BCD. It is versatile, functional, and comfortable - great for most recreational divers. If you’re a diver who mainly dives on holidays in different places, this is ideal.” Allen Haggerty Pro Dive Cairns PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor

BUOYANCY COMPENSATORS 105

BCDs All Oceanic, Aeris and Hollis Hardware, comprising Regulators, Octopus Regulators (Octo’s), Buoyancy Compensators (BC’s), Wings, and Analogue Gauges, when purchased and registered from an Authorised Australian Dealer, can have their warranty upgraded to a Limited Lifetime Warranty (LLW). This LLW will cover against any defects in materials, workmanship and performance to product specifications for the life of the product. Digital Instrumentation is provided with a 5 year Limited Warranty. Conditions apply.

Exterior abrasion points of select BCs are covered in our “Fadeless” Cordura® tough stuff that will hold up to years of extreme diving and keep that “new look” longer. Most external panels benefit from the toughness of Cordura®, a highperformance, super-durable fabric that is perfect for the demands divers place on their equipment. It’s resistant to abrasions, tears, and scuffs--all the qualities you expect from a high performance fabric.

The Patented QLR Quick Lock & Release System is standard on many of the BCs. Your equipment should enhance, not hinder the joy and exhilaration of diving. Nowhere is this more important than with BC’s, where comfort and freedom of movement must be balanced against function and durability. Responding to this challenge led our design engineers to create BioFlex® - a unique “living fabric” that stretches, flexes and conforms to the body. BioFlex® is an extraordinary fabric, which stretches, fully inflated up to 30% over conventional nylon or polyurethane BC materials. The idea being that if a material could stretch while remaining airtight, you could make smaller air cells, creating less bulk and drag underwater while achieving high volumes of lift when required. BioFlex® eliminates chest squeeze, conforms to the diver’s body and provides a slim, body hugging profile.

HYBRID BLADDER

The innovative design of the hybrid bladder allows the freedom of movement and other benefits you have come to expect from a rear-inflation BC. The unique wrap-around design of the air cell provides you more lift than most BC’s; as well as an improved, upright orientation when the BC is inflated on the surface. B F

PATENTED QUICK LOCK RELEASE WEIGHT INTEGRATION SYSTEM Patented QLR Quick Lock & Release System ensures your weights stay in position throughout the dive and do not shift around affecting buoyancy or position in the water. The weight pouches are simple to load and easy to release. Best of all, our patented “positive-lock” system helps to ensure that they’ll stay put.

D RINGS

Welded and slightly bent for easy, one-handed attachment. Use these D-rings to attach accessories such as torches, cameras or even your octopus regulator.

INTEGRATED RETRACTOR SYSTEM

Your weights stay in position throughout the dive and do not shift around affecting buoyancy or position in the water. The weight pouches are simple to load and easy to release. Best of all, our patented “positive-lock” system helps to ensure that they’ll stay put.

Built-in retractor attachment point perfect for streamlining gauges, lights and other essentials.

KNIFE MOUNTING GROMMETS

A pair of stainless steel grommets keep our BC knives out of the way but just where you want it.

CUSTOM FIT HARNESS

Patented Custom Fit Harness, with its multiposition shoulder straps and cummerbund, delivers individual comfort for people of all shapes and sizes.

FADELESS 1000 DENIER CORDURA® CONSTRUCTION

Exterior abrasion points are covered in our new “Fadeless” 1000-denier Cordura - tough stuff that will hold up to years of extreme diving and keep that new look longer.

RELIANT INTEGRATED INFLATOR

Ergonomically designed to be functional and easy to use in any dive position, the Reliant Integrated Inflator provides a full range of airway exhaust and inflation control. Simply press a button to produce precise flow for trimming or maximum flow for major changes in buoyancy. A large exhaust valve creates a flow rate higher than the inflation rate of the power inflator, improving diver control during ascents.

DEPTH COMPENSATING CUMMERBUND

Patented depth compensating cummerbund is manufactured from a unique woven elastic material that eliminates the need to readjust as your suit compresses at depth. Cummerbund offers up to 8” of adjustment to fit a wide range of sizes. For additional personal adjustment, the cummerbund may be easily changed with another size.

OPTIONAL INFLATOR/OCCY UPGRADE

The inflator/occy combines the reliability, performance and durability of the Second Air OCTOPUS and RELIANT INFLATOR into one very low profile, streamlined package. The regulator/inflator combination is as small as many BC inflators alone, with breathing performance superior to many stand-alone octopus regulators.

Regulators

“Hollis has put the wow factor in the new 500SE DC7 regulator with its great look and even better performance, the breathing on this unit is very comfortable and light. I have been able to try out a very large range of regulators but I have now found what I was looking for. As a twin set up, it performs perfectly. The design allows perfect hose routing for single and twins alike. The first stage is so compact that sidemount divers will also enjoy the 500SE DC7. The exhaust on the side minimises bubbles in front of the mask, Brilliant! I will recommend this regulator to anyone who wants the best out of diving. Thanks Hollis and to all you divers out there. ENJOY.”

HOLLIS 500SE DC7

The new 500SE utilises a servo controlled valve to provide precision airflow and unparalleled performance for both air and trimix divers in a side exhaust configuration. To achieve this, we have perfected the original “lever-servo valve” we designed 35 years ago. Overbalanced diaphragm first stage also provides ideal hose routing for both backmount and sidemount users and optimum performance regardless of depth. 500SE Second Stage • Pneumatically balanced servo valve system • Patented Orthodontic Mouthpiece for comfort and reduced jaw fatigue • Standard with 30” maxflex hose • Easily disassembled without the use of tools and underwater if necessary • Left or right positioning - no upside down • Boltsnap tie point DC7 First Stage • High performance over-balanced first stage provides progressively greater intermediate pressure as depth and gas density increases for superior gas delivery under the most extreme conditions • Fixed hose routing ideal for both backmount and sidemount configuration • Environmental sealing prevents internal corrosion, contaminants, and icing of the first stage • Designed to withstand the rigorous CE standard for coldwater performance • Nitrox compatible to 40% • 2 High Pressure and 4 Low Pressure ports • DIN/300 bar • MSRP $749.95

REGULATORS 111

DVT is a revolutionary regulator technology designed to automatically eliminate moisture and contaminants from entering your first stage, even if the dust cap is accidentally left off. A simple twist of the adjustment knob enables complete control. Set the inhalation requirement to near zero when you need ultimate performance, or tune it for greater resistance as conditions or preferences change.

Regulators

DVT eliminates corrosion of critical internal components, bacteria, hose deterioration, and damaged gauges and computers.

Most downstream demand valve regulators are calibrated during manufacturing to a single, ‘middle of the road’ operation. Whether finning up current at 20 metres or merely snorkeling out to the dive site, this factory adjustment may not be optimum for the wide variety of demands we place on our equipment.

The pneumatically balanced second stage reduces breathing resistance to near zero with a balanced valve seat designed to respond to the slightest inhalation. A pneumatically balanced second stage actually has (or can have) the same initial crack opening effort as a mechanically balanced, but the spring force of a pneumatically balanced second stage is lighter so it’s spring rate is also lower.

COMING SOON

All Oceanic, Aeris and Hollis Hardware, comprising Regulators, Octopus Regulators (Octo’s), Buoyancy Compensators (BC’s), Wings, and Analogue Gauges, when purchased and registered from an Authorised Australian Dealer, can have their warranty upgraded to a Limited Lifetime Warranty (LLW). This LLW will will cover against any defects in materials, workmanship and performance to product specifications for the life of the product. Digital Instrumentation is provided with a 5 year Limited Warranty. For Oceanic Regulators and Octo’s, this Warranty also covers free annual service parts for life. Conditions apply.

OCEANIC OMEGA 3 Finally, the next generation of the Omega regulator, the 3.0 inherits the impressive functional benefits of its predecessor with a great new look.

DRY VALVE TECHNOLOGY D.V.T

DIVER ADJUSTABLE INHALATION

PNEUMATICALLY BALANCED SECOND STAGE

ADJUSTABLE VENTURI SYSTEM

Ever wonder why they call it a “dust cap” and not a water cap? DVT eliminates the possibility of moisture entering the first stage with a simple, yet ingenious design. No hassle, no worries. What about performance? DVT doesn’t impact first stage performance even at 40 metres with just 100 bar in your tank. The result? An end to flooded regulators! DVT is designed to automatically eliminate moisture intrusion and contaminants from entering your breathing system.

A pneumatically balanced second stage actually has (or can have) the same initial crack opening effort as a mechanically balanced second stage, but the spring force of a pneumatically balanced second stage is lighter so it’s spring rate is also lower. Therefore the force required to open the valve farther as flow increases is less than that required for a mechanically balanced second stage with a higher rate spring. So the total effort to breathe the pneumatically balanced second stage is indeed less. The spring force must be just enough to overcome the difference between downstream air pressure and upstream balance chamber pressure. The downstream air travels through a hole in the poppet into the balance chamber and applies an “upstream” force just slightly less than the downstream force.

STAINLESS INLINE SWIVEL

This unique feature of the swivel provides ultimate comfort and flexibility. How you choose to mount your regulator, whether that’s over or under your shoulder, or even upside-down, the swivel system performs as well as it looks.

NITROX COMPATIBLE

This feature enables the regulator to be suitable for use with nitrox breathing gas mixtures containing up to 40% oxygen without the need for special preparation, cleaning or components.

ORTHODONTIC MOUTHPIECE

Our patented Orthodontic Mouthpiece further reduces jaw fatigue, and is specifically designed to accommodate the natural overbite of the human jaw.

Most downstream demand valve regulators are calibrated during manufacturing to a single, ‘middle of the road’ operation. Whether finning up current or merely snorkelling out to the dive site, this factory adjustment may not be optimum for the wide variety of demands we place on our equipment. A simple twist of the adjustment knob enables complete control...set the inhalation requirement to near zero when you need ultimate performance, or tune it for greater resistance as conditions or preferences change. The A.V.S. deflector diverts the airflow from the valve directly to the mouthpiece, producing smooth venturi-assisted inhalation. With the addition of a user Adjustable Venturi System (A.V.S.), in the form of a simple yet ingenious switch, full adjustment control rests in the hands of the diver.

SURGE DEFLECTOR

Our surge deflector reduces freeflow caused by surge or oncoming current.

PATENTED DYNAMIC ADJUSTMENT

A common objection to adjustable second stages is that divers can’t imagine themselves twisting and turning a knob as they descend and ascend through the depths. If inhalation resistance is set near zero at depth, your ascent would require you to manually increase resistance as ambient water pressure is reduced to prevent free-flow. Taking another stride beyond common second stage engineering, Oceanic designed a patented DYNAMIC ADJUSTMENT feature with a mechanically balanced valve that maintains a preferred breathing resistance throughout the dive. Set it once and it automatically adjusts to make breathing as easy at 30 metres as it is at 5 metres - with no additional manual adjustment.

SERVO VALVE

Servo valve assisted inhalation is among the easiest breathing second stages in the sport today. Inhalation ports surround the main valve, providing greater surface area resistance to air flow and astonishingly high flow rates. Essentially this means that breathing effort of a Servo valve second stages is near zero.

What is Certegy Ezi-Pay Express?

it’s r

Certegy EZI-PAY Express allows you to take your purchases home today, while making convenient fortnightly debited payments from your nominated bank account or credit card. It generally takes less than 10 minutes for the entire process. There is “NO INTEREST EVER!*” charged to you as this service is paid for you by your Authorised Oceanic Scuba Centre.

Why should I buy my own equipment? When you own your own Scuba equipment, you at once become more familiar with the positioning and the working of that gear, and you can adjust straps, Occy Reg and Computer positioning etc. Once you buy accessories such as Retainer Clips and Retractors, they can stay permanently attached to your gear. It really does make a lot of sense.

How Ezi-Pay Express works for you? Certegy EZI-PAY Express is commonly referred to as a lay-buy program, rather than a finance system, with the difference being you get to take your gear home from day one. If required, pay a deposit, and then complete the application form. That’s it…you’re now ready to dive!

What can I buy? Your Scuba Package comprising of Regulator, Occy, Buoyancy Compensator and Dive Computer is possibly your starting point, but you can also include your Wetsuit, Boots, Mask, Snorkel and Fins and in fact you can even include your Open Water or Advanced Dive Course.

How much can I borrow? Approved applicants can borrow up to $4,000 with No Deposit Required. Amounts up to $6,000 can be borrowed with a 20% deposit required.

What do I do next? Consult with your Oceanic Scuba Centre to determine the gear that suits you best. Your Oceanic Scuba Centre will have an application form for you to complete and most importantly have your diving gear ready to go!

Talk to a Oceanic Scuba Centre today about customising your new scuba package! Their are over 80 Authorised Oceanic Scuba Centres located throughout Australia. Visit the Oceanic website for you nearest location http://www.oceanicaus.com.au/dealers.php * Ezi-Pay price is based on 20% discount on normal RRP. Based over 12 months. 0% deposit. Oceanic Ezi-Pay Express is a continuing credit payment plan provided by Certegy Ezi-Pay Pty Ltd (ABN 28 129 228 986). A once off establishment fee between $35 and $90 to activate your account is payable with your first purchase under the plan. A monthly account keeping fee of $2.90 and a payment processing fee of $2.80 applies, other fees and charges may apply. Subject to change, see in store for terms and conditions or visit www.certegyezipay.com.au. For Certegy Ezi-Pay Express No Interest Ever! Applies.

124 REBREATHERS

Rebreathers We believe that Hollis have really come up with a winner for recreational rebreather diving.

“Being an enthusiastic rebreather diver for many years on the Prism Topaz and more recently the Hollis Prism 2, I was quick to order two Hollis Explorers, one for myself and another for Ann, my business partner and wife. We had both closely checked out the prototype units during our annual DEMA visits and more recently at OZTEK. We believe that Hollis have really come up with a winner for recreational rebreather diving. The extended bottom time, minimal bubbles, ease of assembly, absence of reliance upon pure O2 (unit uses readily available Nitrox) and automated pre-dive checks, all add to make diving the unit a great experience. Ann is a keen photographer and sees the Hollis Explorer will vastly improve her photo opportunities. I find it easy to dive and certainly very simple to setup. I am looking forward to passing my knowledge on to recreational divers who I expect will flock to what I consider will become the normal way of diving.” Brian Mecklem Aussie Reef Dive PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer Instructor PADI Tec 40 CCR TDI Instructor TDI CCR Instructor

HOLLIS EXPLORER SPORT

Details • Nitrox Electronically Controlled Hybrid - uses readily available Nitrox in 32-40% • Simple user interface is easy to learn and easy to dive • Automated Pre-dive Setup assures the Explorer is prepared for the dive • Automated Breathing Loop control gives minimal bubbling and hydrostatically controlled bouyancy • Bail-out mouthpiece gives a quick one handed operation from closed circuit to open circuit • Simple Green or Red primary display

Specs • Scrubber thermal monitoring and optional CO2 sensing assures good gas in the breathing loop • PPO2 intelligently controlled for a proper balance of PP02 and bottom time • Automated dive data logging • Back mounted counterlungs with streamlined cover to offer good protection • Modular component design makes it easy to setup and clean • Choice of BC: either traditional Jacket or Back inflate style

MSRP $6,499.00 CO2 Sensor Upgrade - $549.95

The Hollis Explorer is a true recreational Rebreather. The unit is neither a fully closed circuit Rebreather nor a pure semi-closed system, but an intelligent hybrid that utilises the best of both worlds. Its compact, lightweight and extremely easy to use. The Explorer is unique in using a single gas; Nitrox, and is electronically controlled to achieve an optimal balance of PPO2 and dive time. Plug and Play absorbent cartridges, easy guided setup with go or no go, CO2 tracking, and 2 hour design duration make this a dream for any recreational diver. The Explorer diver will benefit from breathing warm gas, have lots of bottom time, and since it does not produce any invasive bubbles, see more sea life than ever before.

HOLLIS PRISM 2 HOW IT WORKS

The Prism 2 gains gas efficiency by circulating breathing gas in a breathing loop, unlike an open circuit SCUBA system that dumps the exhaled gas with each breathe. The Prism 2 maintains safe oxygen levels, removes CO2 from the breathing loop, and delivers warm breathing gas to the diver. The Prism 2 accomplishes this through the following breathing loop cycle: 1. The Oxygen and Diluent (air, trimix or heliox) tanks provide the source gas. 2. Exhaled gas enters the breathing loop, and a one-way valve inside the Dive Shutoff Valve (DSV) directs the breathe to the righ side counterlung. 3. The right side counterlung is the location of the manual oxygen addition valve and system over pressure relief valve. 4. The exhales gas then enters the scrubber cannister where the carbon dioxide is removed. 5. Gas leaving the scrubber passes the three (3) O2 sensors which analyse the breathing mix, and the Prism 2 electronics add oxygen as required. 6. The breathing gas passes through the left side counterlung where the manual diluent addition valve is located, and maintained gas volume is available for breathing. 7. Gas leaving the left counterlung travels again through a one-way valve in the Dive Shutoff Valve (DSV). 8. The gas is inhaled by the diver, and the next exhalation begins the cycle again.

The Prism2 is a fully closed circuit Rebreather, ideal for exploring open ocean, cave, or wrecks. This unit can be electronically or manually controlled which means you choose how you want the loop PPo2 maintained. includes shoulder mounted counter lungs and rear mounted radial scrubber which provide easy breathing with low resistive effort and low hydrostatic loading.

Dive Computers

DUAL ALGORITHM

Choose the one dive computer that’s liberal, conservative or middle-of-the-road. Oceanic’s new range of computers let you choose the decompression algorithm that best suits your diving needs without compromising safety. Liberal Recreational Diving - The Pelagic DSAT Algorithm safely maximizes dive time for repetitive, multi-level recreational diving. This algorithm relies on the human Doppler studies used to develop PADI’s Recreational Dive Planner (RDP), and has been the basis of Oceanic’s and other manufacturer’s computer algorithms for many years. Liberal Repetitive Deep and Decompression Diving - The Pelagic Z+ uses the Buhlmann ZHL-16C database, which was conducted to meet the more rigorous demands of repetitive, coldwater decompression diving at altitude. The Pelagic Z+ mode maximizes dive times at depth without penalties.

ON-UNIT LOG BOOK

This feature includes on-unit data storage capacity for up to 24 dives. Date and time stamp makes locating and viewing a specific dive quick and easy.

HISTORY MODE

Displays accumulative information for up to 9999 dives, 9999 dive hours and the maximum depth achieved. History information is maintained indefinitely, even if the battery is replaced.

OCEANLOG® DOWNLOAD & SETTINGS UPLOAD INTERFACE

Advanced Digital Compass with North, Reference, Auto Home, and Declination Adjustment offers the ultimate in on unit navigation.

OceanLog Interface is an exquisitely detailed digital dive log. OceanLog allows you to easily transfer dive data from your Dive Computer to your Computer via a plug-in USB cable. Following download, your dive data is automatically formatted for easy viewing, sorting, analysis, and printing. Enter location, dive buddy and your notes and you’ve instantly created your own digital logbook.

DEEP STOP

WIRELESS AIR INTEGRATION

DIGITAL COMPASS

Both the DSAT and Pelagic Z+ Algorithms allow (user ON/OFF option) credit for deep stops for No-Decompression dives in keeping with the data of Morroni et al (2004) and Bennett et al (2007). No penalty is given if the diver skips the deep stop, but it is strongly recommended that a shallow safety stop be made with or without the deep stop in keeping with the experiments of Pilmanis (1975). It is important to note that neither algorithm provides deep stops for decompression dives since there is ample experimental data [Blatteau et al (2005), Gerth et al (2007), and Gutvik et al (2007)] that indicate that this practice often produces an increase in the risk of DCS.

A transmitter threaded into the first stage high pressure port continuously sends cylinder pressure data to the computer. Frequencies are individually coded to allow multiple divers to swim side by side without interference from other units.

ADVANCED FREE DIVE MODE

This mode allows the diver to calculate and track Nitrogen Tissue Loading, allowing you to switch between SCUBA dives and Free dives on the same dive day.

NO DECO SAFETY STOP PROMPT

Our patented Air Time Remaining feature calculates your current depth, breathing rate, cylinder pressure, ascent time, and decompression status to tell you exactly how much time you can remain underwater.

An audible and visual alarm to remind you as you approach your programmed no decompression safety stop depth and an automatic timer counts down to zero. As in any other dive mode, you still have access to other pieces of information, and there is no penalty should you choose to disregard the safety stop.

TURN-AROUND PRESSURE ALARM

ALPHANUMERIC DISPLAY

PATENTED AIR TIME REMAINING ALGORITHM

A unique patent-pending feature that allows you to pre-program an audible reminder when you reach 70 to 205 bar in 5 bar increments. This helps ensure that you return to your exit point with plenty of air.

AUDIBLE ALARM

Our computers feature a variety of system and user customised audible alarms, alerting you to situations that pose a potential danger, or simply serve as a convenient reminder.

AUDIBLE ALARM ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Once triggered, the alarm will sound continuously for 10 seconds. The alarm’s job is to get your attention so that you look at the computer. Once it does that, simply press the button and it will stop.

AIR OR NITROX

Our Computers act simply as ‘Air’ computers until you tell it otherwise, and you will always have the option to dive Nitrox whether that is this weekend or 2 years down the track.

ADJUSTABLE OCEANGLO® BACKLIGHTING

Backlighting may be adjusted before the dive or “onthe-fly” underwater for brightness as well as full-time or on demand use.

An alphanumeric “Message Box” is incorporated into the display to provide text and numeric readouts in simple, unambiguous terms. Imagine beginning an ascent, and as the ascent speed increases, hearing a warning beep as the message box alerts with the words “TOO FAST”.

AUTOMATIC ALTITUDE COMPENSATION

Your computer will automatically compensate for altitude dives up to 14,000 feet, giving adjusted no-decompression times and depths. It can also automatically recalibrate the depth displays for freshwater instead of seawater above 2,000 feet.

DIVER REPLACEABLE BATTERIES

All Oceanic computers and transmitters feature diver replaceable batteries. This can be a real trip-saver on board a liveaboard boat!

PERSONAL CONSERVATIVE FACTOR ADJUSTMENT

When the Conservative Factor is set On, the nodecompression limit times are reduced to values equivalent to those that would be available at the next higher 3000 foot (915 metre) altitude.

GAUGE MODE

Divers using advanced breathing gas may utilise Oceanic computers as an advanced air integrated digital depth gauge and bottom timer with detailed PC Interface.

128 INSTRUMENTS Our Sophisticated Personal Dive Computers feature Wireless Air Integration technology. A transmitter threaded into the first stage high-pressure port continuously sends cylinder pressure data to the dive computer. Frequencies are individually coded to allow multiple divers to swim side by side without interference with other units. Because the transmitter and display module are independent and separately powered units, the dive computer may also be easily used as a stand alone, non-air integrated dive computer.

HOLLIS TX 1 TX1 is a mixed gas dive computer capable of open circuit air/nitrox/trimix and wireless HP monitoring. The TX1 utilizes a Bühlmann ZHL16C algorithm with user adjustable gradient factors, allowing the diver to uniquely control their decompression calculations. With up to 6 gases and 6 independent transmitters, there are unlimited options for the use of this gauge for both recreational and technical diving.

Because the Dual Algorithm allows you to adjust the algorithm basis and its conservatism, you can adjust to closely match just about any other dive computer on the market, allowing you and any buddy to always dive in sync. Diving the same profile increases safety for both divers, and eliminates the need for one person to conduct a much longer or deeper stop when buddying with someone wearing a more liberal dive computer. You can’t control which dive computer your buddy wears, but you can control your ability to dive the same profile.

All Oceanic, Aeris and Hollis digital instrumentation when purchased and registered from an Authorised Australian Dealer, can have their warranty upgraded to a 5 year period. This warranty will cover against any defects in materials, craftmanship and performance to product specifications for 5 years. Conditions apply.

“The AERIS F.10 was designed by freedivers for freedivers. It has many freediving specific features including a wide variety of convenient alarms. It’s ideally suited for all types of breath-hold diving, spearfishing or freediving, recreational to competitive. I’ve personally been diving with this computer for the past 14 months and find the repetitive depth alarm to be of specific value as it can track each atmosphere. The F.10 also features a surface interval alarm which is very beneficial during my interval training for competitive freediving. It has a unique safety feature of an on-going stopwatch so whilst in-water my running time does not get erased if the computer becomes submerged- unlike with any other freediving computer. Right now, this is simply the best freediving computer on the market - period.” Martin Stepanek

SOFTWARE 137 “The Accel is a lively fin. It’s also small and light, making it the perfect openheel fin for travelling divers. The Accel’s blade is made from one solid piece of Monprene, a synthetic rubberlike material. According to engineers, this is the key to the fin’s performance-toweight ratio. In spite of its small stature, it turned out to be among the speediest fins in this go-round, and it accelerates quickly without straining leg muscles or ankles. It loves all kick-ing styles and, no surprise due to its size, it is also highly maneuver-able and very easy to control... The Accel is an impressive performer, good for both local diving and travel. It’s also priced right, making it this year’s Best Buy for this category.”

ScubaLab Best Buy 2013

AERIS ACCEL FIN

Power over frills. Compact and responsive, its clean lines and efficient shape make it an excellent all-around fin. Shorter than most top-line full-foot fins (less than 53cm) and very lightweight, the Accel gives divers of open-heel fins the best of both worlds: the comfort and adjustability of an openheel fin, with the weight, size and performance of a full-foot fin. While also good for local diving, you won’t find a better open-heel travel fin. • Angled blade ensures the best angle of attack for each kicking stroke. • Side rails and centre channel direct thrust behind the diver for maximum propulsion. • Vents at the base of the blade improve water flow down the length of the blade for greater efficiency. • High-stretch heel strap is fully adjustable and easy to slip on and off. • Foot pocket posts also accept standard quick-release buckle fin strap assemblies. • Streamlined foot pocket design accommodates a wide range of boot styles. • Textured sole provides traction on boat decks and slick surfaces. • Compact blade is easy to pack and great for maneuvering in tight spaces.

138 SOFTWARE Patented Nature’s Wing® use a suction force which propels the diver forward through the water like lift pulls an airplane upward. The Vortex Fins create this force as water flows smoothly around the blades, which rotate to a reduced angle of attack.

Fins

QUADFLEX - Advanced Composite Materials Control the shape of the blade during the kick cycle and you control water movement – thus maximising the efficiency and propulsion of the fin. Our QuadFlex construction features two composite and two natural rubber compounds working together to provide varying levels of rigidity to precisely control the shape of the blade as it travels through the water.

As the water funnels inward toward the centre opening, it accelerates like water at the narrowing of a river or water spraying out the nozzle of a hose. In all controlled testing split blade fins have proved to be faster, more efficient and less tiring than conventional “paddle” bladed fins. Hundreds of tests have been done in controlled conditions, and the results are truly amazing.

The engineered semi-rigid battens, flex channels and side rails direct water flow off the tips of the fin without allowing water to “spill” from the sides of the blade for uncompromising power and efficiency.

Wetsuits WHY DO I NEED A WETSUIT?

Water conducts heat away from the body about twenty times faster than air does. Any water cooler than body temperature has the potential to chill a diver, or even induce hypothermia. A wetsuits also protects you from the sun and accidental scratches while underwater.

HOW DOES A WETSUIT WORK?

A wetsuit is a neoprene insulation suit made for warmth and protection in watersports. It functions by trapping a thin layer of water between your body and the suit. This layer of water is warmed by your body heat, keeping you warm while in the water.

HOW SHOULD YOUR WETSUIT FIT?

Fit is a very important aspect to consider when buying a wetsuit. A snug proper fit is critical to suit performance. It needs to fit tightly to your body in order to keep a thin layer of water between your body and your suit. There is no substitute for actually trying on a suit to determine fit and comfort. Not all diving needs are the same, as not all suits are the same. There are many types of neoprenes all having varied behaviours and functions.

High density neoprene with excellent depth compression resistance for extended warmth and resilience, dive after dive.

THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A WETSUIT • Water temperature • Air temperature • Depth of your dive • Length of your dive • Type of diving • Your sensitivity reacting to cold • Thickness of the suit • Fitting

These are the factors that should influence your decision when it comes to deciding what suit is right for you. Not the colours or the brand name. Talk to an expert and try it on yourself.
