I still think the greater Durban area is extremely underrated as a diving destination

Very much so. We've been actively working on looking for new sites in the ~30m range and every single one we've tried has been spectacular. Originally Posted by DouglasN

The buoyancy, control and comfort you get from a wing negates everything else.

2 dives in, I'm more than happy!
Not the perfect set of regs for this kit, but it's what I had lying about. Upgrade will be one day.
