I've completed AOW and Nitrox on rented gear and am ready to get my first BC. Thinking BP/wings are the way to go but would like to hear whether people think Dive Rite or Halcyon (or another?) manufacturer is the way to go. I've read a hell of a lot on this board but not everything so my apologies if this has been covered already. I've trained in the Northeast and Florida and have a trip to the Carribean planned. My guess is that I'll continue to dive both warm and cold for the next year but not sure where I'll be after that. I'm interested in tech diving, may do mostly rec--hard to tell but would like something versatile.
