YETI FLIP 8 COOLER
MSRP $199
The cooler that discriminates against bottles.. I get it, bottles break, but they too deserve room. I was unable to fit a six pack of Kalik properly into this cooler, a total bummer since Kalik doesn't come in a can, and because I paid $200 for this man-purse.
Great size to bring on a OPB with room for a few of tuna filets and lobster tails, but not bottles of any sort.
OMER MARINER MASK
MSRP $60
The OMER mast fits good, and has minimal sense distortion. Visibility with the yellow tinted glass is good, especially in greenish / murky water. The head strap felt good after a day of diving, however the lip guard was a bit over-sized for my face. For the price I would not hesitate to recommend it a s good buy.
RIFFE MID HANDLE BLUE WATER ELITE SPEARGUN
MSRP $1,386
This is the dream gun. The one I saw at the store as a kid and wished for all year. The one I drew pictures of it in my math book, and promised to wash cars, mow lawns and walk dogs for in eternity... Firsts for my birthday and then for Christmas.. but since the price was as much as a mortgage payment, I had to keep on dreaming.
Full disclosure, I am sponsored by Riffe and I love their guns. I had a chance to try out some of the new models over the weekend, and this little piece is outstanding.
Nicely weighted and balanced, good fit, and quick on the trigger. This gun felt like a old friend. Not for the biggest of fish, but is perfect for picking out Wahoo's in rush hour traffic.
I recommend you buy this at www.shopriffe.com and make your kid flip out on his birthday.. if you don't have kids, you can keep it for yourself. You won't regret it.
