    Why should I win this reg set? Primarily, diving has helped me immensely in overcoming/coping with my PTSD. The ability to take my wife with me (in a more cost effective way) would be huge. I’d love to share with them, the singular activity that makes me truly joyous outside of their company.
    It would be a tremendous benefit to share the undersea world with her, and move beyond the standard “how was your day” conversations we generally have.
    Regardless of your choice, I love your videos. They’re exceptionally helpful to novice divers, and are one of the few feeds I subscribe to. Thanks for all the info you provide!

    I am really fond of your stunning, frank gentleman style! My husband started your video and I cannot go on with my crochet project for I am caught to listen to you on the maintenance of my regulator.
    Simple, intelligent, clear, 100% conscious. Just like diving itself. Thank you!!

    I am newly certified and new to Divers Ready great dad jokes. The Dive Rite regulator would allow me to avoid renting poorly cared for equipment. Thank you

    Getting this regulator kit will be the perfect gift to my son and best dive buddy as he is new to the sport and is struggling with rentals that are discouraging him from a good experience. Thanks James.

    My Husband and I are in the process of getting our open water certifications. We have yet to be able to get our own equipment so this would really help us start our own set ups. We have went to several local dive shops around us and most of them carry products that's we just find aren't right for us. This would change our life just being able to say we finally were able to start having our own equipment. Weather we win or lose we wish everyone good luck and appreciate the chance to be in the drawing.
    Great video... it has been helpful for us and cant wait to watch more of your videos and to learn more.

    My husband and I were slated to go to Galley Bay, Antigua in June of 2020 but the world shut down. 🤷🏼‍♀️ So, we decided to get certified for when we do get to go. These regs would take us diving in Antigua. Thanks! ❤️

    I am new to the sport of recreational diving. being from Louisiana the rental gear in my area is horrible at best. this would give me a great start to owning my own gear. Also, this would provide me with a much more enjoyable time doing what I love. It would provide what I need to breath easier and be able to focus on the dive and less on the lack of air my rental system is providing me. This would be a huge step in the right direction for me to continue my learning and training.

    I'm diving a Sherwood Reg I bought in 1990 and it still work great since I have taken care of it just as James has recommended. Getting a Dive Rite reg. would be a great addition to my gear and help me as I retire and start my post retirement dive career.

  • @r6f4orr18
    @r6f4orr18 4 роки тому

    Me and my kids (13 and 11) took up scuba diving over the summer. Gearing up all three of us has been slow and expensive, right now I only have one set of regulators so I have to rent the others when we go diving. This reg set would help us get in the water more often and save me a little money in the process.

  • @christiansvendsenengholm5243

    Hello divers ready, I am a newbie diver who is looking to improve its diving. I already dived on couple places and I have to say it is a big roadblock to not have a good regulator. I believe, that owning a good piece of gear, that you are familiar with can be breakthrough in my diving. So I just hope I’ll be the lucky one, who will have the opportunity to dive with this regulator and then maybe talk about it on one of your amazing trips, such as Sardines or Bonaire or other beautiful places that you are diving. Stay safe and keep making this videos. They are amazing and inspiring. Cheers

    As a newly certified advanced open water diver, who's searching for my first ever personal regulator, this is a life changer. As having our own regulators now during this pandemic is the utmost priority, I'll be able to explore and learn more about diving. Keep up the good work Divers Ready and Dive Rite!

    This regulator would be with me from my Open Water Certification through my diving training as far as I go, or, until my son is old enough to start diving. He has already expressed interest in learning. James, keep up the awesome content, I started back at the first videos and am currently into 2020 videos. Thanks for all the information you have provided for me to consider what I want for diving.

    I just watched your bucket list video and loved to see Okinawa at the top. I just moved to Okinawa for work and I'm gonna be here for 3 years so I figured I'd get into SCUBA diving to meet new people and enjoy the beauty here. Thanks for all the great information and content on your channel.

    @jdsimulcik 4 роки тому

    I was out of the water for a decade and got back diving at the end of the 2019 season. 2020 didn’t happen, but these regs would let me continue my goal of advanced certs and many more dives.

  • @lukem2889
    @lukem2889 4 роки тому

    This regulator would help me start becoming a scuba professional. Gear is expensive, and I know nothing about Regulators but your videos give me a good start. I aim to start my dive master training hopefully this year next time I go to Asia, and this would help a lot.
    Thanks for the quality content, James.

    @mirmgirl3x7 4 роки тому

    Just starting my diving. Im watching your videos all the time to get the most knowledge i can before i do my certificate as covid has put a stop to a lot of things in life. This reg would be amazing and helpful as we have 6 boys and not a whole lot of money for new diving equipment. we love your videos and are always finding a good laugh. either way, thank you for the consideration.

  • @dman6377
    @dman6377 4 роки тому

    I have recently started diving and this gear would be used to dive around the world when and if COVID ever lets up. I have wanted to learn to scuba dive for years but only started this past February, only to have my OW course postponed after the first three dives (thank you COVID) I completed my OW dives in June when we were allowed to get back in the water. I have watched most of your videos and really enjoy learning about how to maintain my gear properly. This gear would be a great start to the gear I need to further my diving experience. thank you.

  • @crimsondarne
    @crimsondarne 4 роки тому

    In 2019 I got enough dives on my belt to know I am hooked for life and then covid hit... After a dry 2020 I'd love to take my diving to the next level with my own equipment - this regulator would be an epic way to get back into the water in 2021!

  • @Thomas-mf9qm
    @Thomas-mf9qm 4 роки тому

    Being at the beginning of our diving adventures, this reg set would easily follow my wife (and she would get it if she wants it) and my dive adventures over hopefully the next 10-20 years including lobstering, spearfishing (eventually, hopefully), and many an adventure off the coasts of FL or wherever life's travels take us.

  • @turtle_diver4146
    @turtle_diver4146 4 роки тому +1

    This reg would help me to dive with my dad and sister which I haven’t seen for a year because I live 9000 kilometers apart from them. They all have their own gear and we would love to go diving together when this pandemic is over.

    @charlesdarr740 4 роки тому

    Thank you for more great content. Once again you have added to what was taught by my instructors. Always appreciated. Receiving these regulators would allow me to involve my wife and daughters in diving and show them what I have come to love. Diving is very expensive as we all know and after purchasing equipment for my son and myself this year winning these will certainly make it easier to outfit the rest of my family as they are about to start their journey towards certification later in January.

Winning this contest would mean a lot to me and give me a great headstart in my diving career. Cheers to 2021!
