Hi Guys,
I am having some serious issues getting information from dive shops in the Toronto area. I am looking at buying my own wet suit, fins, snorkel, mask and every dive shop keeps telling me something different.
Funny... I called one dive shop about a wet suit and it was $179 for an Akona and then I called another and he was selling a BARE for $130, and he says "well you get what you pay for!" I am like the AKONA one was more expensive.
Anyhow I cannot be more confused!
I am posting in this section for assistance with the WET SUIT... I guess the FINS, SNORKEL AND MASK question belongs in another forum. Can anyone please give me some feedback on how to determine what is good and long lasting? (yes i know it is kind of a general question and probably can't 'TRULY' be answered) Any feedback would help.
Price is one of my least concerns... I would probably rate quality first comfort second... argh maybe not... i don't know about 50/50 i suppose!
** also another question, is this something I can buy online if i find a cheaper price for what I am looking for? Or should these really be tried on at a dive shop to ensure a proper fit?
Thanks!
