I am recently OW certified 22 yr old male, and have visited my LDS to inquire about buying my own gear. Can you guys give any helpful suggestions pertaining to the quality of gear listed as well as the price i was quoted?
Dacor Falcon - $380
Genesis GS2000 - $350
Octo - $100
Dacor Darwin Consol - $400
I also need to buy a wet suit, but definately want to find one that fits well. In my rented gear i used to get certified it probably took me 5 -10 minutes to squeeze into the suit they gave me .
Also, if i want to buy online, which seems to be the cheaper option, how do i know what size BC to get? Is there a formula based on chest size or something?
Also, when buying regs (and any other equipmentthat uses hoses) online, do the hoses come with the gear, or is that how they get the price lower, by making you buy the hoses extra?
I'd sure appreciate any help or suggestions you can offer.
Thanks!
