equipment quandary

Hi

if you could only buy either a BCD or a regulator which would it be?

BCD. So it fits properly and you know the in's and out's of the BCD features.

 

[TMHeimer]

Yeah, I agree BCD. More aspects to deal with.

Assuming you mean new, how about buying used and getting both..

Yup. Still use my 2 after 7 years.

Since this is in the "Going Pro" forum, this answer is from that perspective... It doesn't really matter, as you need to own your very own complete set of dive gear (except a tank) before becoming a pro.

I'd go for regs first... BCDs are all pretty much the same. With your own regs you know they work and have been well maintained...

I would buy both second hand.

I'm in the reg first camp... I have gone thru a few different BCDs, but I still own and use the first regulator set I bought.
