Dive Superstore - USA
Hi,

a workmate lives in Houston and he is willing to drag some kit out to me if i can arrange for it to be delivered to him in the US.

thanks

Depends what you're after...

Many of the good kit manufacturers are based in the USA and will sell direct (Salvo, DeepSea Supply, DUI, Diving Concepts, Dive Xtras to name just a handful).

The dive 'super stores' I gave seen out in the US sell an awful lot of tat (snorkels in any colour you can imagine, BCDs with more D-rings and plastic clips than you can shake a stick at), but quality gear tends to be sold at smaller more specialist places or direct.

Be careful if you're looking at cylinders as DOT stamped ones may not get filled here and depth / pressure gauges could be in PSI and feet instead of bar and metres.

Not sure I would bother for small items, I hope the mask fits.
