SCUBA DO
Of course you’ve always wanted to try scuba diving. But all the gear, instruction, and the whole deep-sea thing — it’s a bit daunting. Now, thanks to Mini-B Shallow Water Products, scuba just got accessible. With a housing the size of a small backpack, complete with air tank, regulator, pressure gauge, backup regulator, weight belt, and vest, the Mini-B is designed for shallow-water diving to a maximum depth of 25 feet. It’s portable (it even qualifies as carry-on baggage), lightweight, and easy to operate. Best of all, the price of entry is about half that of traditional scuba gear. Diving daunting? Not anymore. $799. (866) 297-6458, www.mini-b.com
