We have a new cave diving DVD for sale, Mexican Underworld Vol.1, a compilation of Mexico's most popular caves and our new cave diving film company Aquavista Films is finally up and running.
We will be releasing Underworld cave diving DVD's on a regular basis and our films will be featuring caves, known and unknown from around the world.
Although this company will be primarily cave diving orientated, there will be a really cool surf movie too for 2011, featuring many never before seen, West African,Caribbean and Atlantic secret spots.

Wow thanks for all the orders, we really appreciate it.

I think we should be releasing the DR Vol.1 DVD around mid February more or less, this DVD will include all the Santo Domingo and Bayahibe area caves, with maps to the systems too, also on this DVD will be a lot of xploration footage in newly discovered systems and some lesser known but equally as cool caves from the area too.
Also we do have a lot of really cool Mexico footage from Cenote Regina, Cenote Cristal to Chac's Room and Pet Cemetary to the Blue Abyss too, those and more will be included on MX Vol.2 and might be released sooner.
I got a bit behind of schedule with the DVD's sue to my knee surgery but I am finally back on track and will be releasing DVD's on a regular basis.

That was not my fault, I did dead lifts at the gym and got a little to ambitious with the amount of weight used and the next day my lower back disagreed with our weekend cave diving plans.

Dont screw your back up, mine got messed up back in the summer. Finally had surgery on it in Nov. Talk about painful!!! Hopefully will be good to go by the first of the year.

That really sucks sorry to hear that hope you get better soon.
Needless to say I am NOT doing dead lifts anymore, that was part of the physical therapy for my knee but I am through with that.
what I have learned with the knee surgery and I assume it also applies to back surgery is that the PT is key and being on a regular PT program and sticking with it diligently makes a major difference in how fast you heel.
One of the advantages of ACL replacement surgery aside form having a bionic knee is that you now have a life time excuse for not carrying tanks anymore, I think that excuse would be even more powerful with back surgery lol..

Got mine, have not had a chance to check it out yet though.

It occurred to me though: You guys shot this in HD (based on the preview) yet we are stuck watching it in DVD quality. I can't really expect you guys to invest in shipping them out on blu-ray, but what about shipping it DVD-ROM style in H.264/MPEG-4 or MKV so we can watch it in all its glory?

12-14-2010, 06:59 PM

I got mine, and it is great! I can't wait for the DR videos :-)

Phillip, did your dog help you ship the DVDs? When mine arrived, my dogs tried to get it. Luckily, I got it first and took the DVD and case out. I just found the shipping envelope chewed up on the floor. I think they reached up on the top of the TV to get it. :roll;

I wondered how it got here so quick from D.R. Too bad I can't look at the return address now :-D

I got mine just in time for my flight to Florida. We watched it on the first leg this morning. Very nicely done!

I suspect that for every DVD you sell you're adding $2k to the local economy. I'm booking my next Mexico trip...
