Warning: Unauthorized Dealers May Cost You Money

Like your iPod, scuba gear is backed by manufacturer’s warranties. If you buy from K2, an authorized dealer, you will be notified in the event of a safety recall. The warranty is much more important with scuba gear, as this is life support equipment and Murphy ( of Murphy’s Law) is following you around at 130 feet of seawater. Every year the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) finds several scuba products that require recall. The Aqualung Titan was the latest recall September ‘O8. Please click the above link to read about it.

Deliverability and Availability

If the reason you came to us is because you want your item, you want it now, and you don’t want to wait for it… you came to the right place. We understand that you want it right now. Often, discounters have lower prices, but are” oh-so- sorry-we’re-out-of -it”, so they try to sell you something else. So please don’t be fooled by competitors who have deeply discounted prices, because their deliverability or availability of those products just might not be there.

Customer Support

It is what K2 is all about. we aren’t done until you are gleefully happy!

Technical support

Youbought the latest SuperBangWhiz Dive Computer from us, and have questions. You bought a pair of drygloves and need help installing them on your drysuit.

Is SCUBA Diving in need of Equipment Standardization and Regulation?

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

My background is in aviation. I have been a pilot, technician, inspector, trainer, instructor and manager. One thing I know after 14 years doing this flying thing is that standardization is the life of the industry.  It has lead to sharp decreases in accidents made flying easier and more accessible to the general public.  Why cant this be so for SCUBA and more importantly, why hasn’t it been implemented yet?

Side-By-Side Design

I have recently had the revelation that all of SCUBA should follow a standardized system for equipment and training. This would be a huge benefit to the industry in many ways. Lets take a look at how this could work.

First, standardized equipment would allow for the newbie coming into the sport to feel that they are not getting taken with extraneous “stuff” for the sake of a bigger sale. This was my initiation into the sport and should not be for anyone else if I can help it.

Next is safety. If all gear is the same, in the same place, and looks the same, then we all could rest assured that what we will need in an emergency will be where we expect it when the time comes to find it. Simple concepts with huge ramifications.
