Default Re: Article for men's mag - need your help

what about the new Seaquest Fusion BCD - fairly radical styling but with a
great comfort factor
Mares X-Vision
Talaria split fins (same patent as the ScubaPro ones but only around half

new Uwatec SmartTec wrist-mounted integrated computer

Really, the list is almost endless ... it is only limited by your
imagination !!
