Nothing happen to me actually. I was dive at 49m using double tanks. Huge group of Mola-Mola have been seen once I approached 40m. With the strong current, you have to be fast and keep yourself very near to the reef. Its not a relax dive as sometimes need to fight current. I am prefer relax dives rather than adventure/struggling.

For me, know your limits and your experience before descending. Seeing Molas might be a good experience but my dear life is more important. Never worth it to risk your life for things like this. Even the most experienced divers will face difficulties under such situation. Not to scare off those who are planning to dive in known currents dive sites but must be sure that you have plan/coordinate your dive well plus the necessary equipment and experience to deal with such situation in case anything unpredictable happens. That being said, I consider myself an inexperienced diver and I have not dived at Nusa Penida before.

As far as I remember, Crystal Bay claimed 2 lives last year as well during the mola mola season.

This made me think twice before planning for mola sad.gif . Any other spot that we can spot mola? Other than Nusa

My previous Bali guide told me that they encounter everyday Mola-Mola action at 15-20m at Tepekong and surrounding Padang Bai area.

You choose the right one. Stiletto and Oxycheq are not the same level.

Custom? How much they charged? You can't use short back plate?

Lol!

Check this out! I was planning to make this actually. I'll produce a few of this if I'm too lazy to do CAD. I think should be about RM500. Need to check the raw material pricing first.

Edited. Just realised you got from huwporter as well. Yes, I'm planning on something like this. smile.gif

For each of Tec 40,45 and 50, more or less double the OWD price. From what I know IANTD and TDI are cheaper but not much.

Yes, the same website. You could copy those CAD drawing from Dutch forum, is it?

A CAD file on a Dutch diving forum, apparently (I havn't seen the result) based on the single-tank version of my plate:
