Look at SCUBAPRO

       I walked in the glass doors of the Hilton Resort, Key Largo on Monday evening with a great respect and appreciation for SCUBAPRO products. I walked out of those doors Thursday morning with an impressive look at how this company creates such stunning gear. SCUBAPRO is a brilliant, dynamic, and extremely dedicated team of interesting and friendly people. Every member is committed to maintaining SCUBAPRO’s excellence. I had the pleasure of being able to speak with most of them, and I found them all to be eager to meet with everyone attending the meeting. It was obvious the partnership between the SCUBAPRO team the SCUBAPRO dealers is an important facet of the SCUBAPRO jewel. A significant amount of time during the two-day conference was spent in a discussion format between SCUBAPRO platinum dealers, sales representatives, global diving product director, Brad Lally, SCUBAPRO Ambassador and Marketing representative, Julie Andersen, Group Vice President, Joe Stella, and National Sales Manager, Harry Ward. Dealers were welcome and encouraged to share their opinions of and needs from SCUBAPRO gear, based on interactions with customers. This exercise was not just a courtesy. The dealers’ input was taken seriously. Every issue was noted and discussed in order to find a solution. Members of the SCUBAPRO team were able to point to changes in SCUBAPRO gear that were made based on last year’s input from the dealers.         Dedication to the customers’ wants and needs in combination with the efforts of an expert and creative production team results in amazing dive gear. As a customer of SCUBAPRO you should look forward to some incredible new gear. We were shown an interesting display of the confidential pictures and prototypes of over 20 new items that will be introduced in 2015. A BC like no other is in the prototype phase of production. It is the most portable and comfortable BC I have ever seen. SCUBAPRO is also looking at a new inflate/deflate system that will make buoyancy a non-issue. A computer is in release with all the well-loved features from the Galileo, along with some new innovations. SCUBAPRO is starting to do more with apnea equipment that is aimed at professional apnea divers as well as recreational freedivers.
       Updates on the release of this new gear can now be found easily because Julie Anderson, an integral member of SCUBAPRO’s marketing team (and also the gorgeous model who can be seen in SCUBAPRO catalogs), is increasing SCUBAPRO’s presence online. The SCUBAPRO website has recently been overhauled to include more information and programs for SCUBAPRO customers. SCUBAPRO is also very active on Facebook and is starting to post some beautiful photography on Instagram. The dedication and innovation of SCUBAPRO means we can always look forward to something fresh and new.
