DUI Demo Day

ByNatanya Levine

I went to the DUI Demo day at Stage Fort Park on May 10th.  It was a day I’ll never forget.

I got to test out my new DUI drysuit.  I went diving with Vin Malkowski.  We did some mask clears, air sharing, reg retrievals, and I got the feel of my new drysuit.

I talked with Dick Long (the founder of DUI) between my dives.  I warmed up my hands in electric gloves and he explained DUI’s heated undergarments.  It was so warm.

After lunch, I got back in the water with Vin and did a second dive.  Stage Fort Park is a very sandy site, but there I saw a lot of crabs, and the water temperature wasn’t that bad, especially in a drysuit!

  • Breakwater Wall

    ByJake Stout

    I started out by going along the wall looking at all the scarlet psoluses, bat stars, and anemones. The wall is pretty easy to navigate just, follow the rock sand line down and back. The kelp along the wall was really impressive. It reached the surface then spread out along it. I thought it would…
