Aqua Lung titan
Sherwood Silhouette
Mares Avanti somethingorother fins
Mares Mask
UWATEC Nitrox Pro untra comp

I have been accumilating gear as time, and funds go on. I have paid for most/all of my gear myself, and am responsible for the maintance, as well as my dads... :-l
 
Been diving since I was 17 and got this when I was 17:
Genesis Cobra BCD
Sherwood Maximus Regulator
7mm farmerjohn wetsuit - also got an O'neil 7mm fullsuit now
Got a Dacor Extremelle with Air-Trim BCD 3 years ago.

Im interested in getting a drysuit and going tech a little - guy with tools syndrome I guess.
 
im 19 and have a couple of sets of twins, 3 poseidon jetstream regs, 1 scubapromk25/s600,1 sherwood oasis, 2 abyss diving systems regs, halcyon harness and bp, oms wing, scubapro jets w/ springs, 21 watt/9 ah salvo light, 2 40s, 2 80s, a dive rite back up light, viking drysuit, dui undies, some other fleece undies, like 5 sl4 lights, a camera, some pelican cases and a bunch of other crap, not to mention about 1000 dollars tied up in training, all paid for by me, a busser at a restraunt.
 
g'day fellas,
i m 16 and apart from my basic gear (fins, wetsuit, mask & snorkell), i m looking to purchase my first bit of actual gear, due to budget limitations, i m yet to have the money to buy both the BC and regulator at the same time.
what would you guys suggest? BC first or regulator first?
if so, what type/ brand would be a good choice for my first?
cheers

I also suggest regs. Get one of the Apeks ATX series, and you will be set for the rest of your diving career. (Just don't get the ATX-40s)
 
thanks fellas.
when i look at regs, what should i look for first apart from brands? material? quality? durability?
also, when you guys say regs, does that include the alternative 2nd stage as well?
