25 March 2009: With the current slowdown in the economy many manufacturers are offering incredible package deals to our customers. The Scubapro ProDeal is probably one of the best offers I have seen in the last several years. This offer from Scubapro beats even the Free Aladin Prime Wrist computer that was offered last winter. When you purchase any Scubapro BCD with Air 2 and a Scubapro Galileo Sol Dive Computer you will get a free MK25 S600 Regulator. I personally believe this is the best regulator on the market and what could make it better than being free?

20 March 2009: We are pleased to announce that Lone Star Scuba is offering a Special promotion on Oceanic life support systems. When you pruchase an Oceanic Islander 2 BCD, Delta 4 Regulator, Alpha 8 Octo and a Veo 250 NavCON Dive Computer you will receive a FREE Oceanic Cargo Duffle Suitcase.

Chris DeClerk will be our trip lead for that weekend and has said he would love to teach any specialties that you might be interested in taking.

4 February 2009: Our next "Dive with Lone Star Scuba" Series will be at Balmorhea State Park in west Texas on February 28 and March 1. This is a spring fed lake with water temps at a constant low 70s. This is a great place to complete your Altitude Specialty as well.
