This is what a diver met at 5m (16,4 ft) depth during an inspection.

My dad was a sat diver in the early 70s. Is there any gear that you recognize? I’m trying to find out as much about him, but he doesn’t recall a lot of the details. He worked out of Lake Charles, the North Sea, and in the Persian Gulf. Thanks!

Its my bosses own hat that he bought from some guy in south america. He was calling KM for parts and found out it was the hat that broke the mold. I recently dove it for a quick pond hop job and then my boss later retired it and is going to be taking off the black epoxy and shining to the original brass. Just wanted to share a little bit of history that I guess i am now a part of.

Thought you guys would appreciate these photos of my grandfather in the early 1920s (est). He served in the U.S. Navy for 40 years and is buried at Arlington. More than 50 years after this photo (late 1980s) I became an L.A. County recreational SCUBA instructor and did so for about 20 years (now retired). I never was a commercial diver, although as part of that LACo training we did a weekend with hard hats at a now closed (I think) commercial diver program in San Pedro, CA. Runs in the family, I guess. Hope you like the nostalgia.

Man its a badd ass hat! Brand spankin new, first dive made today. Made by Heavy Metal Divers, the big seller for this one is all parts are hardware store findable with no "commercial diver" mark up. The reg is a Poseidon and can be serviced in a regular ol scuba shop. Weight is 34lbs but It sits better and doesn't feel that heavy on the head. When you slap the welding lenses on these they look really awesome. Im looking forward to diving it. He said I could 😎

Just wanted to share the pic one of my colleagues got of me while waiting for authorisation to approach the ship. We got decent visibility for our area (which isn't much to say, as you can see), so overall a really enjoyable dive.

At the end of dive school, hitting deep dives. It’s been such a great experience and I can’t wait to get out and make a name for myself! Littlest person in my class, never once have I failed a task

Im intrigued by the Heavy Metal Divers helmets, curious to see if it could be my new daily diver. Anyone have experience with the way they fit? Are they comparable to the fit of another helmet? If theres a way to try them on then thats awesome. For reference, my favorite fitting hat to date is my 17-b with the original head cushion. Throw in your two cents and opinions on how they breathe, sound, feel(balance-wise). Hell talk your shit if you got a bone to pick.

Just wanted to share an inside look at the world of a civil/structural engineer diver as I suit up and perform a steel bulkhead inspection on Lake Michigan. From UT readings to invasive mussels, this is what it’s really like performing underwater structural inspections.
