The annual diving trade show – DEMA Show – has come and gone for another year. This year we had the pleasure of spending the week in Las Vegas, Nevada from 19th-22nd November 2014 to catch up with all the major Dive Agencies, Manufacturers, Resorts and other assorted interesting exhibitors to help bring you the latest from the show floor. The team is now back in their respective “home ports” and it’s time for the final wrap up…
Thank You To The Team
We wouldn’t be able to cover the show without help from the amazing set of volunteers who give up their time to come and walk miles around the show floor to bring you the latest in Freediving, Scuba Diving and Spearfishing as well as man our booth. This year I want to thank the following members of the team – John Liang, Francesca Koe, Grant Graves, Rosemary Lunn, Carla Hanson, Ron Smith, Vaclav Havlik, Natalie Blea, Mallory Morgan, Erin Durbin-Sherer, Bethy Driscoll and Stig Severinsen.
