SCUBAPRO MK25 / S620Ti / Special Edition White Set

Posted on February 15, 2025

Scubapro MK25 S620Ti Special Edition White

SCUBAPRO MK25 / S620Ti / Special Edition White Set

The SCUBAPRO MK25 / S620Ti / Special Edition White Set is now in the shop

Make a statement on the dive boat! Unique white and dark gray accents adorn both first and second stages.

Top Performance

Delivers an ultra-fast breathing response, great sensitivity and extra-high airflow, making it the ultimate do-it-all first stage for all water temperatures.

Comfortable

Lightweight design features a compact case and high-flow mouthpiece for greater comfort.

 

The SCUBAPRO MK25 / S620Ti / Special Edition White Set is an awesome bit of kit, treat yourself!

 

MK25 Evo First Stage

The MK25 EVO first stage lets you enjoy an ultra-fast breathing response, instant delivery of air on demand, great sensitivity and extra-high airflow — regardless of how cold the water is. This is made possible with SCUBAPRO’s exclusive patented Extended Thermal Insulating System (XTIS) that fully isolates the mechanical elements of the first stage from the cold, increasing its freezing resistance 30 percent over previous versions of the MK25 without compromising breathing performance. This makes the MK25 EVO the ultimate do-it-all first stage for all water temperatures.

MK25 Features
  • Air balanced flow-through piston in a chrome-plated brass body provides constant and effortless airflow unaffected by depth, tank pressure, or breathing rate.
  • Patented XTIS (Extended Thermal Insulating System) fully isolates the mechanical elements from the cold, increasing freezing resistance 30 percent over the previous MK25 without compromising breathing performance. Key insulation system components are visible in blue.
  • New spring insulating coating, body insulating bushing, anti-freeze cap, bigger body and cap thread all work in concert with the XTIS to improve cold-water performance.
  • Anti-freeze protection radically increases breathing reliability when diving in the most extreme water temperatures.
  • Two opposing high pressure ports allow the first stage to be positioned either up or down.
  • Five high-flow low pressure ports on a swivel turret maximise hose routing options.

S620Ti Second Stage

The white S620Ti regulator touts a long list of features guaranteed to enhance a diver’s underwater experience, offering improved work of breathing in a small, lightweight package.

The S620 Ti embraces the best features of SCUBAPRO’s renowned S600 in an upgraded, state-of-the-art design. Smaller and lighter than the S600 but using the same-sized diaphragm, the S620 Ti delivers effortless airflow under all dive conditions. The full titanium inlet tube is ultralight, the large purge button improves water circulation, and the reengineered exhaust tee increases performance while directing bubbles out of the field of view. In all water temperatures, in all dive conditions, this reg system is a winner.

S620Ti Features
  • S620Ti second stage’s air-balanced valve smooths out the inhalation effort at varying depths and supply pressures.
  • Rugged reinforced technopolymer case and front cover with stainless steel frame looks good plus is able to withstand years of aggressive diving.
  • Full titanium barrel is rugged, anti-corrosion and lightweight for long-term reliability.
  • Large diaphragm fits inside a more compact second stage casing for maximum breathing sensitivity.
  • User controls include an easy-grip diver-adjustable inhalation effort knob and Venturi-Initiated Vacuum Assist (VIVA) lever.
  • CE certified according the latest EN250A European Standards for all diving conditions, including extreme cold water.
  • CE certified to EN250A European Standards for all diving conditions, including extreme cold water.

 

Scubapro S620Ti White edition

 

The S270 Octopus

The S270 Octopus is tough, reliable, and easy to use. Its air-balanced design can be counted on to deliver top-notch breathing performance when you need it most.

S270 Features:

Air-balanced valve smoothes out the inhalation effort when diving at varying depths and supply pressures

Lightweight casing, made of a fiberglass-reinforced nylon core and a special PU outer layer, is extremely durable plus helps reduce jaw fatigue and improve diving comfort

Technopolymer plastic barrel with a metal thread and a balanced valve helps save weight and provides a surface that ice crystals can’t grab onto when diving in extreme cold water

Dive/predive switch prevents freeflows when not being used

Compact and efficient exhaust tee minimises exhalation effort

Compact Hi-Flow mouthpiece is comfortable, made with FDA-approved silicone and features a large cross-section to maximise airflow

Enriched Air Nitrox Course 23rd February 2025

Posted on January 28, 2025

PADI Enriched Air Nitrox February 2025

Enriched Air Nitrox Course 23rd February 2025

We will be running the next Enriched Air Nitrox course on Sunday 23rd February 2025

Scuba diving with enriched air nitrox gives you more no decompression dive time. This means more time underwater, especially on repetitive scuba dives.

We all want to stay longer on that reef or wreck, it isn’t always our breathing rate that brings us up before we want to, often we still have plenty of air left but our No Decompression Limit (NDL) brings us back up.

Learn how diving with air that has higher oxygen and lower nitrogen content gives you more bottom time, you’ll learn that there are equipment considerations when using EANx. The PADI Enriched Air EANx Certification course gives the knowledge and skills to dive with Enriched Air mixes up to 40% O2, within recreational scuba limits.

 

During your classroom session you will:

  • Discuss managing oxygen exposure
  • Practice analysing O2 content in your tank
  • Set your computer for diving with enriched air nitrox

 

You will need to do a small amount of home study before the course, this is all now done with the digital PADI home study eLearning material. The time spent with us in the classroom will be going over the practical part of the analysis procedure of using Enriched Air for diving.

Learn how diving with air that has higher oxygen and lower nitrogen content can give you more available dive time, you’ll learn that there are equipment considerations when using EANx. The PADI Enriched Air EANx Certification course gives the knowledge and skills to dive with Enriched Air mixes up to 40% O2, within recreational scuba limits.

PADI Open Water Course May 2025

Posted on January 26, 2025

PADI Open Water Course May 2025

PADI Open Water Course May 2025

Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th  – Pool and Classroom

Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th – Lake Dives

The Open Water Course is your introduction into the underwater world.

Whether you are interested in the explosive kaleidoscope of colours within a beautiful coral reef, or the rusting metal of a wrecked military cruiser, the PADI Open Water Diver Course is the world’s favourite way to get there.

Have you ever wondered how it would feel to be weightless? Do you want to find out what your mates have been going on about all this time? Sign up to the Open Water course to learn.

You will start with your Home Study, by reading all of your tablet/pc based eLearning material at home at your own pace. You will learn about many different aspects of diving theory, equipment, safety, skills, and what to expect during your course. Then you will come to us at the Dive Centre to carry out the short classroom session, then into the pool for your skills training.

You don’t need to come to the shop to get the course arranged and access your digital home study. This part of the course can all be arranged via email. The course can be paid for via BACS or credit card. We will then send you the code for your home study, with instructions how to do this. Of course however, it would be great to see you before hand, so you can always pop into the centre before the course to arrange it all.

You will need to fill out a short Medical Questionnaire, along with some other standard paperwork. You do this via email or in person.

Our Professional and friendly Instructors and Divemasters will make sure that your journey to becoming a qualified diver is the fun and stress free adventure that it should be.

 

Open Water and Drysuit Combination

If you are intending to dive in the UK, you will need to learn how to use a Drysuit to allow you to stay warmer for longer in the cooler waters of the UK. If you do your Open Water Diver course with us in the earlier and latter parts of the year, we will only take you in the water in a Drysuit due to the water temperature. We offer a huge discount off of the PADI Drysuit Diver course when you take it alongside your Open Water course. Please see the Packages page, this is the Open Water UK Diver Combination Package

 

If you would prefer, you can complete your qualifying dives on a holiday you already have booked. You can do the Classroom and Pool section of this course here in the UK, and complete the qualifying dives on your holiday. This saves spending days of your holiday in the classroom. This is called the Open Water Referral Course. Follow this link to find out more about this option.
