It would help if you said where you live. If San Diego and LA are both an hour away, I'm guessing that you must be somewhere near Dana Point. If so, you can pick up some sorts of gear at Beach Cities Scuba in Dana Point, but you aren't likely to learn much there. They have a great selection of Riffe guns, so they will try to sell you a Riffe gun and will say that other brands suck. That's business.

Like most shops, their main focus is scuba and scuba training.

If you want to learn, the best place is Spearboard or talking to individuals who actually spearfish.

Re: Orange County

Will you're website be updated soon with more info? All I can see so far is Pelaj and Riffe.

I realize it takes time but just wondering as I am no longer living in Costa Mesa for most of the year so online is my best bet, also trying to price out some stuff for a gun I'm building.

Hopefully I'll be by over Thanksgiving break to check out the store.

Re: Orange County

Man that site looks like its coming together nicely and is really well made, can't wait to see the final product. Once I get a new computer I'm hoping to start my own diving site and build upon it throughout college.
