Went to eccy delph to try out my new gear last night,
40lb Evolve Could not believe how effortless it was just gliding through the water. can't get use to using wing as bouyancy. need loads of practice
Proteus 3 This was the dogs bollocks (was I made up with this lamp )

Jetfins The lads kept telling me to slow down (so easy to remove )

Regs Apeks DS4 Primary reg spot on, backup reg to short (22inch)

SPG Hose to short (22inch)

Two dives 3-4 mtr vis, place was empty late night diving every wednesday.
Thanks for all the advice.
