After my reg set arrives, I'll FINALLY have *all* my gear

[ganu76]

("All" being a relative term of course)

It's taken some time but I've finally pieced it all together (sans tank). (Deployments and what-not kept getting in the way.)

1st wave was mask and snorkel. 2nd wave was fins and a dive computer. For my 3rd wave I acquired a 5mm wetsuit, hood, boots, & gloves. My 4th wave was (finally) a BC.

Final wave, reg set, arrives in 5 days!!

Makes me want to put in some Boston and crank it up to 11!!

25 years and I still don't have all my gear

Congrats!

$30,000 later and I could still easily spend another $30,000.

Next you'll need tanks, then a boat, then a compressor,followed by a............

Enjoy!!!

Nice!!! What kind of reg's did you get?

 

[xspect]

You can never have all your gear. You need a "fill in the blank " gizmo

I opted for a Mares Ranger 12 with an MR12 first stage. After a lot of back-and-forth I went ahead and DID order a Mares MV (old Viper) octo to go with it. I topped it off with an Oceanic double gauge SPG.

Haha! You will never have all your gear, unfortunately!

Having all your own gear means you can dive whenever you want for free (if you have nearby shore dives). All you have to do is check-up your gear once a year and get a year-long air card. Now if I could only find the time.

I just want to say that all this talk about never having all the gear you need, spend 30 grand, needing the newest gizmo, well, it's all...absolutely true. As you enjoy using equipment that fits you, with which you are familiar, and which you know is in good condition and properly cared for, you never go back. Scuba Noob, you need to change your handle- I think you are the verge of being a bona fide Scuba Snob like so many of the rest of us here on scuba board! (that's a good thing, by the way)
