Im considering trying a BP/W setup after a dive buddy's inputs and was looking for other input as well.
I dive socal waters, single tank, dive only to ~120 on my favorite wreck, cold water (7 mm wetsuit). Lots of shore diving, occasional boat. Warm water trip once a year (Bahamas this month woooowhooo!!).
For this type of diving, what would be an appropriate BP/W setup? Seems I need a harness, BP (SS or Al?), wing and weight pockets. I see setups with back pads, lumbar supports, etc. confusing. What would be a quality, long range setup that doesnt break the bank Say <$450? Thanks all.
Oh yeah, I'm 6' tall, ~215# (I likes my beer:14 if that helps.
