Nice Comments from Some of our Satisfied Customers

 

I love my custom Terrapin wetsuit!  It is the second made-to fit wetsuit I have owned, and the first one (made by another company) fell apart after less than 75 dives!  I was somewhat reluctant to make the investment again, but decided to get a Terrapin Minihood and try it out.  The difference in the quality was evident very quickly, so I contacted Chris, and ordered a new suit.  Several hundred dives later, my suit is still warm and the neoprene has not compressed.  I get compliments wherever I go, and Divemasters everywhere love the way that they can pick me out in the water (my Minihood has a Dolphin Fin on top).   Chris is great to work with, and my suit fits like a glove!  I highly recommend Terrapin, and have also had an “off the shelf” hooded vest customized by Terrapin, adding a zipper, for ease of donning. ...

Thank you so very much for your commitment to helping us be ready for our trip.  This great customer service is quite unusual in today's big city business, it's almost more than we know how to handle.  We'll continue to remember you for all our needs and tell everyone who'll sit still about you and your great products!  .....Thanks again for great service.  Sincerely, Jim S. (Tankboy)

 

The wet suits you fixed for Paul and I were great!  The waters around Bali were warmer than usual … but I wore mine every dive...they are so much more comfortable (and the hoods are great!)...I saw a lot of your handiwork on the boat!  Thanks, Mary M.

 

Just letting you know that I received my Minihoods...I absolutely LOVE them!!!!!  Can't wait to wear them...heading out today for our vacation.
I'll make sure we get some pics!  Thanks a lot!   …Regina M.

 

I tried on the wetsuit [that was altered by mail], and it's just perfect.  Thank you so much.  You did a great job.  I will highly recommend you to anyone that needs alterations.  Thanks again, Marga B.

 

I recently returned from Bonaire, where my show-stopping Minihood had its debut!  I have to thank you again, and let you know how much fun that hood stirred up. I was writing down your web address for other divers all week. The really big surprise, though, was when my friend from the UK, Brian M., whipped out his Chicken Minihood you made for him! Truly amazing!!! We had formed the Chicken Divers when we all met in Grand Cayman (long story), but of course
now had to dub him "the Grand Chicken" due to the amazing hood.

Thanks for putting so much care and creativity into your Minihoods! Sincerely, Ivy B.

 

The "Batman" Minihood arrived today. It's FANTASTIC! Fits perfectly! I am going to have a lot of fun with this one. Looks really cool with the mask on. Thanks a lot… Dan N.

Diversitea Herbal Supplement Tea for Divers   This unique Herbal Tea blend contain naturally occurring nutrients which have been shown to help divers by reducing the fatigue often experienced when doing multiple dives, without caffeine and with lots of fresh fruit flavor!  Whether you are getting ready for your first dive of the day, waiting to off-gas between dives, or relaxing at the end of a long day of diving, they have the right blend of herbal supplement teas to help your body recover from the stresses you endure while diving. 

Let's face it: even if it was very, very healthy and good for us, we probably wouldn't drink it unless it tasted as good as the unhealthy stuff that's readily available!  But the really good news is that this tea is truly delicious and refreshing!  And it comes packaged in ways that make it easy to make and enjoy, even on your most remote dive trip!  I take it with me when I travel and share it with my dive buddies.

For the future of diving in US waters...

This link takes you directly to a site where in 3 minutes, you can send a letter to your senator asking for her/his leadership on healthy fisheries. 

This is a great way to promote healthy fisheries. This spring, Congress will reauthorize the Magnuson-Stevens Act, the nation’s only law governing marine fisheries. The COOL organization (Conserve Our Ocean Legacy) is working hard to ensure that the ‘new’ Magnuson includes conservation provisions for healthy fisheries and fishing communities for future generations. We need divers to tell their senators that they care about healthy fisheries.

For the oldest aquatic clean-up in the US...

October 7, 2006

Trashfest is the oldest underwater clean-up program in the country, and occurs on the first weekend of October in the Comal River, New Braunfels, Texas. 

The clean-up is conducted by members of the Texas Gulf Coast Council of Dive Clubs, and sponsored by New Braunfels Parks and Recreation Department, the New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce, and several other generous companies that donate to this worthy cause.  This link takes you to the event host's website, for facts about the clean-up.
