I'm looking for some guidance!
Every site, every person, every forum says something else, one thing is better to get and another piece of gear you better stay away from, so on and so forth!
I've been searching some online scuba sites for gear and I find when you buy there "packages" you get the best price. I started by looking at there cheapest gear because at first I wanted to learn to scuba just to toy around at my family cabin and such, and the more I read the more I'll probably want to get into cold water ocean dives off the coast of Vancouver, Canada, which means I need a sealed first stage, and a dry suit.
These are some of the packages I've been looking at: would any of these suffice? I'm looking in the >$1000 range.
$700 - I've read some good things about the prestige 12s
Package 1
$779.80 SILHOUETTE DIVE SYSTEM (near the bottom of the page)
Package 2
$999.95 AVID MAGNUM 2011 DIVE SYSTEM (Above the Silhouette system)
Package 3
$870 Get wet package - I was told the Regulator can be up graded for around 100 dollars for cold water (only package from Canada, Where I'm from)
Package 4
If none of these packages work, could you please list a few I should look into?
Would you mind posting some dry suits I should look into? and companies I should stay away from that would be fantastic! ($800-$1300)
There is just far to much to read about every piece of equipment! I need a place to start
Thank you so much!
