Just got my first Speardiver wetsuit secondhand, and I'll give it to you, Dan. Top notch. I haven't had a chance to go over all the seams or anything yet, but the 4 way stretch lycra is awesome, cut is spot on, and the neoprene is nice and soft. 5 stars.

If you want some place to get some deeper dives in, Troy Springs is the way to go. The SCUBA divers can be out in numbers and kick up a lot of sediment earlier in the day, but aside from the one day I showed up and they were closed from all the rain, I've always had really good luck there, and it's never usually crowded like some of the other places people hit for tubing and swimming.

Dan, how stiff are the tendons on the Picasso pockets?

Super jealous! I'll have to look you up next time we're in Cozumel! I've got a speargun in my garage just collecting dust!

My FII buddy! What's up, brother? Doesn't look like the diving's slowed down for you at all.

Just took advantage of that one, too. Damn Dan, that's a hell of a deal! Thanks man!

I'd love to see the Wong and the RA 110. I have a Riffe Euro 110 that I haven't decided if I wanna keep or not yet.

I absolutely love your work. It'd be nice if we could get more gun builders in the US to adopt some of those European style and function queues.

Me gusta! Is that the newest version of the Comanche? It'd be nice if they gave it a good redesign.

Mike, what part of the state are you from? I could point you in the direction of a friend of mine up near Traverse City...

I can't speak for this case in particular, and I don't have any stake in Neptonics, just being good friends with Josh, but as far as Josh's customer service, things have changed a lot in the last year or so. When Neptonics was just a one man show, Johs used to go on product testing trips and still leads charters down to Baja. He was admittedly really bad at posting on the site when he would be gone and orders wouldn't be shipping.

Nowadays, things are a lot different. Josh has a full shop instead of doing business out of his garage, and has a full staff who should be filling orders whenever he's not around, which is more often than not these days.

It does suck that you had a bad experience, George. But if there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that everyone has a slip up from time to time. I'm sure most bisunesses, from Fortune 500 to mom and pop shops make mistakes from time to time. I would be hesitant to base my entire opinion of a company off one bad experience, especially with so many other people having so many good things to say about them.

Just my 2 cents...

It's awesome!

Dash it all. Thanks.

John, don't you even think about trading that Wong! It's got too much fishy mojo on it, and besides, I want it and the Sea Sniper.

I haven't dove Blue Springs yet, but it looked kinda sketchy. Troy Springs is a little bit more of a drive for you guys, but a lot more wide open. It's super easy to drop a line down to 70 feet for some practice sessions, but again, does get murked up early in the day with all the SCUBA divers in there if it's busy.

Same here. i'll probably ditch my Millenium pockets and switch to these once I get back from AZ next month.

Dan, by some strange coincedence, are the mounting holes the same as OMER and H Dessault?

Love it!

As usual, your guns are nothing short of amazing. Well done!

Just out of curiousity, George, do you sell your creations, and what would something like this go for?

Makes me chuckle that one of the most well respected gun builders in the country is the only one who suggested that JBL was the better gun. You guys are missing out not checking out the new JBL guns. Much better gun for a much smaller price. I agree with Phil on model choice too. Go with the Elite, and possibly switch out at least the rock point tip, if not the whole shaft.

I love the Garas, and am really excited about trying these out, and I'd almost ponder trading in my C4's for the carbons, sight unseen.
