Hi everyone, I am taking my PADI Open Water class next week which will be my first time breathing underwater. I did a lot of snorkeling as a kid so I am comfortable with the idea.
The weekend after the confined dives, I'm going on a trip to Florida to get my open water cert. dives.
I have been looking at equipment packages on Leisure Pro. They have what looks like a good deal on a Mares setup for a pretty good price. I like the idea of the back-inflation BCD. I am thinking of buying it.
I would appreciate some input on this setup. Also, I am a little conflicted about whether I should buy online or at my local dive shop, where I'm taking the class. I would feel like a jerk buying the gear online, then asking them to check it out and set it up for me. But I did buy my basic gear there (mask, snorkel, fins, boots, etc.).
Here is a link to the package:
Mares Package #2
Thanks!
