Demo Day at Lake Millbrook this weekend.

This Sunday only it's Demo Day at Lake Millbrook.

This is always a fun event. Manufactures set up tents and let you try their stuff for free.

Regs, BCDs, Fins, lights, Drysuits, all kinds of stuff.

Good food, good people. Cool dive equipment to try. What could be better.

If go, ask to try the new Halcyon Regulators. I picked up a set earlier this year, they are great!

I will be taking a look at Halcyon new lights. If you go deep enough and can take the cold you can put them to good use in Millbrook.

Virginia Scuba is going to be handing out Lakeside discount coupons, that's right the only place you can get them is from the Virginia Scuba tent at Lake Millbrook. These coupons  the can be used towards gear purchases back at their shop. 

Update: I hear Whites Dry Suite, Aqualung, and Sunnto are among the many manufactures that will be there.

On your way out to Millbrook stop at Virginia Scuba to get your quarry pass (always cheaper at the shop then at the gate).  Have a great dive and try that new gear you have been thinking about.

On your way back with a discount coupon in hand, stop back at Virginia Scuba and buy that cool toy you tried.

Whites Dry Suit Demo Day was Great.

Okay, it was rainy, it was cold, it was muddy, but what better conditions to check out one of coolest dry suits on the market! There was a good turn out for those who wanted to try before you buy, several people came prepared to earn their Dry Suit Speciality certification.  The quarry was 44 degrees, the air temp was in the high 50's and pleanty of mud to go around.

Whites Dry Suit Demo Day Saturday.

Saturday April 11 at 11 AM at Millbrook Quarry Whites Manufacturing maker of Whites Dry Suits will a have trailer full of Dry Suits available to try and dive!

Stop by the Shop get your Quarry pass (it will save you money VS buying at the gate) then join us to see all of the cool stuff that Whites Diving has to offer in dry suits; like their Fusion Dry Suit, that's what I am looking at.

Should be a lot of fun and with the Dry Suit you won't notice the chilly water temperature.

Look for updates and pics after the event.

Getting ready for spring and diving.

Spent the weekend at the dive shop VIP-ing tanks, O2 cleaning tanks (lots of heavy lifting) and O2 cleaning valves. 

The quarry opens for the regular season on April 4th. Yes it will be cold, not looking to splash in right away. 
The last person to do a chilly willy dive in mid-march said the water was 44 degrees, I really need a dry suit.

Oh look - Virginia Scuba is having a Whites Drysuit Demo day on April 11th - hum a Fusion Drysuit would be nice...

Come check it out.
