Found this website earlier today:
It contains a lot of goot information about diving all over the world, including my favorite place ‘The Red Sea’.
A lot of very nice pictures as well, go have a look.

There are versions of the magazine for PC/Mac, Android, Iphone, iPad and Kindle fire.
I hope other magazines will start to do the same, either for free or for a small amount, so we finally get some professional dive magazine in digital versions.
Thanks to Alex Mustard for posting to Facebook about this.

Last sunday I had the pleasure of trying out my new drysuit, a Ursuit Heavy Light Kevlar BDS drysuit.
Until now I have been using my Waterproff Centus neopren drysuit, which worked pretty well, but I wanted a drysuit with front zipper.
The new Kevlar drysuit is only 3,6 kg, I did choose the version where I need to wear Rock Boots, instead of build in boots in the suit.
Makes it a lot easy to put on, and the shoes sits tighter on my feet.
You can read more about the drysuit here: Information
I bought the suit at Scansub DKDivers in Roskilde.
I borrowed the pictures below from the Ursuit website.

Poseidon has released information regarding the upgrade for the Discovery MKVI rebreather.
So now we can finally dive with trimix on the unit, and do deco.
The announcement can be read here: Press Announcement or below the images of the unit.
Personally I am going for the 60 meter trimix upgrade.
2011-09-13
Poseidon Diving Systems announced today their program for technical upgrades of the Discovery MK VI rebreather. The program will deliver 3 key upgrades: 40M Deco, 45M Tri-Mix and 60M Tri-Mix. All current owners of Discovery MK VIs will be able to use these upgrades as they become available.
Poseidon’s tech upgrade program has been designed with 2 key objectives in mind:
40M Deco: Firmware upgrade, using air as diluent
45M Tri-Mix: Firmware upgrade, using Normoxic Tri-Mix as diluent, with a choice of helium fractions
60M Tri-Mix: Firmware and hardware upgrade, allowing for manual addition
Upgrade pricing and availability will be announced at DEMA in November, along with certification levels required for each upgrade. All current and future Discovery MK VI owners will be able to use these upgrades.

In this youtube video Gordon Ramsay (known from the TV show Hells Kitchen) eats Shark Fin Soup for the first time.
Gladly he does not like it, and also looks into the slaughtering of the shark.
I hope shows like this will start to affect the politicians to help protect the sharks.
Please join ‘Stop Shark Finning‘ on Facebook as well.
