Gotta love the gear. Scuba diving is an equipment-intensive sport, and we can thank our lucky stars for that. After all, one of the most enjoyable rituals of diving is discovering new gear, buying new gear, and putting it through its paces while exploring the depths. Each year, an ocean full of new equipment is introduced, and each year, Sport Diver’s staffers collect a bunch of it at the annual DEMA (Diving Equipment and Marketing Association) show to dangle in front of you, our readers. It’s that time again.
