DIR Diving Blog

Part of the DIR philosophy is about the equipment that’s used. A few good sites to look at include

Gas Diving
GUE’s website
Bitz – useful guide
US DIR dive shop

These should give a lot of pointers about what is the sort of equipment is best to use.

Some more specific ones:
Hose routing for apeks
Hose routing for scubapro
