"Regulator not included with wetsuit"!?...Bollocks!!!! LOL!!!
Is that the "black label" version in the photo? Is the wetsuit shown a Parkways?

Mark, if you look really close, you can see the equalizing ports, they're round, and those nice long exhausts, like so:  I believe that the Scuba Star was kept in its secondary config. after they started upgrading everything; that being no longer a tilt-valve, but a down stream valve. If I remember correctly, 1966 was when they changed the some of the designs, as can be seen here:  They tried to go for more of a ScubaPro look, and that type of HW can even use a SP diaphragm!

Mark, I stand corrected:  I can't for the life of me figure out why the Scuba Star still had an over pressure valve though: gosh maybe they just wanted to get rid of them that way... Jaybird |
