Seemingly it is OK for threads to have 'idiot' in the title but not stroke, its all about perception and fragile egos I guess.

I tend to call the people that kick all the viz up, that can hardly stay still in the water, and those christmas tree like configs, muppets. It all means the same thing though. An insult is an insult.

I tend to reserve judgement until I have seen them in the water, although you could be godlike in the water, yet still be a muppet on an internet forum and that includes quite a few 'fundamentalists'

Or vice versa for the last paragraph.

[quote=Finless;701770]Well .............. I'm, apparently, vastly over weighted with 8 kgs when using my twin 12s. I'm not sure if I've just compensated for bad habits or ...............?

I do know I use my DS for buoyancy and I know I don't like diving with less weight because I get cold on ascent and I do know I don't like having squished nadgers during a dive.

I think I have excessively sensitive nadgers OR you lot love the squeeze! Maybe if you check the forearm strength of your partners you may glean the answer to that? I have often wondered whether divers were sexual deviants ..... what with all the rubber and bondage.

Just a thought, have you or anybody else out there tried a cricket box?

Erm .......... not me ......... I've never worn one but I suspect the pressure over such a large area (breathes on fingernails and brushes them on chest) would cause problems when pushing down on the reduced area of the edge of the .............. cup of plenty?
