Howdy, great board, awesome insight!
I am mid-OW, and completely obsessed. Already signed up for AOW. Have 5 resort dives under belt, now looking to buy equipment.
I live in PA, so local dives will be quarry, but plan [ie; pray] to hit Caribbean and Hawaii twice a year.
Have Mares X-Stream Mask and Volo fins.
After browsing and reading Rodale's, i am seriously leaning towards SeaQuest Pro Unlimited bcd and Atomic B2 reg.
Also, what about alternate inflators? Seems like a good idea, but I don't have the dives under my belt. I'm leaning towards SS1, but again, don't have the hands-on to really form an opinion.
Finally, I love my LDS, and trust them, BUT, aren't they going to steer me towards what they carry. I'm not looking to piss away my $$$, but I can afford good gear.
Any advise is greatly appreciated!
