Thank you for the one with the loops at the reg dustcaps. This solves so many problems at once 😂
-
Love the single mirror my old dive buddy uses a old dvd 🇬🇧🏴
-
Great tips Mark, thanks. Grabbed a couple of good ones. Cheers 🍻
-
love it! thx Mark!
-
Great ideas, thanks, Mark.
-
Some great ideas there I've never heard of in 8 years of diving. Reflective mirror is a top idea. Thanks for the video, from Australia
-
That was very helpfull! Very you so very much as always
-
Great video and tips. Thanks Mark. I have put a double ender on my dive torch strap and snap it to my BCD D-ring.
-
Excellent ideas!!! This video finally pushed me to subscribe 😅
-
Beginner diver here - thanks so much for the tips! These are great!

I tie in a SS fishing swivel, at the 15 ft. safety stop mark, on my spool lines. My favorite spool, has a 15 ft. floating Dyneema line section, attached to the buoy.

Hi #askmark a while ago I asked you about diving with a third cylinder in addition to my twinset in order to extend bottom time during multiple dives. You said it would be best to get training due to task loading. Just wanted to let you know that this week I’m becoming a tech diver with deco procedures and advanced nitrox, and I’ve been doing maskless stage drop off and recovery on gorgeous wrecks! Thanks for the advice and guidance!

Item 2, hose length: I use two 40 inch hoses with 90 degree swivels and bolt snaps routed under my arm. No big exposed loop of hose (close to body). With 90 degree swivel you get full length of hose to share air. I can use either second stage as my safe second, When setting my gear up, before putting my kit on, I snap each second stage off to a shoulder D ring. Protects my second stage from being dragged on ground or being crushed.
-
Thank you for the Tips Mark, what's the brand of the shorts with side pockets you used on this video?
-
Wish for a next video: What are your favorite / must have gadgets for longer dive trips? I started with diving last year (OWD 10 dives, but this year there will be a lot more diving). This year I'll fly to Cape Verde for 2,5 weeks for diving. What are gadgets I should take with me? Like I have seen that some divers take hooks with suction cups with them, to hang their dry suit on the wall of the shower so they can dry there. So more gadgets beside the actual diving equipment and tools.
-
Tell us more about the aftermarket fabric mask strap. I have an oceanic shadow mask I would love to swap out for something more elastic.
-
Loved this video, thanks Mark. How can I find the small eyelet you threaded through the regulator to hang it up so it doesn’t fall.
-
Ironically I just bought an Apeks Nitrox deco stage reg and it came with a 70cm hose, 20 to 30 cm too short for its intended use depending on your rig. Why?
-
I like the magnetic octo holder. Easy to reattach if octo is pulled out. Just keep away from compass.
-
Check out a brand called "tough tags", it's custom printed labels that really do the job well. I use them on loads of gear, notably thermos cups that go through the dishwasher cycle and come out unscathed. Great for climbing equipment too.
