New year – New gear

I sold one of my two Gavin Mini underwater scooters a couple of months ago. Instead i bought the Cuda 400 from Dive Xtras during a trip to Florida in January, and today i took it for a pool test drive/dive.
“Monkey diving” – Scooter dive with minimal equipment in shallow water is fun and allows you to go faster than with heavy gear and double tanks.

This Cuda is similar to the Gavin mini in terms of size and weight, but it’s a bit faster and has a single handle with an 8 gear speed shift.
I still find the Gavin verry robust and reliable and i will probably keep them both.
I also got the opportunity to try my GoPro Hero2 under water for the first time.
