I am a newbie in the scuba world, and I want to buy my first BC.
I don't wanna go for the recreational jacket BC because it seems that many people are switching to BP/W setup afterwards.
So at first I was going for Halcyon...
But in the last few months, it seems that their quality is....... (decreasing ??)
And I have seen many good post about DSS rigs.
So I want a single hog rig setup for southern californian diving.
I talk with Tobin and used the excel table for lift calculation and I think between 26 and 30 lbs of lift should go with my 24 pounds bouyant wetsuit.
So I am not so sure about halcyon, I am looking for advices from you (regular divers) which way to go. I am also concerned about the services (warranty and repairs) because I can move back to my country (france) in two years. So I am a little bit worried about repairs form france for a DSS wing whereas it seems to be very good products.
So any suggestions would be appreciated ( I know people will say I dive a X so you have to buy a X, it's the best product ever. But anyhow it will be valuable information)... DSS, Halcyon, Dive rite and all others
Thanks
