Hi folks, I'm very new to the board, and also very new to diving. Actually certified 2 weeks ago. I want to go ahead and buy some gear. I've got a few friends around the dive shop and have asked there advice. They both are owners of all Aqua Lung gear. They have lead me to believe the best package to buy for myself are the Black Diamond, or the Dimension i3 BC, both are back inflates. They both recommend the aqua legend, or the legend LX. As an Octo the aqua lung abs was suggested. As far as computers go, they both have the Cobra 3. This package is going to be expensive as far as I'm concerned, but if its the best advice, I'll bend over and pay it.
My other option is to start out a little slower, I have a neighbor that I knew was a diver, so I called him with a computer question. He answered it, and also added he had a friends dive package that he is trying to help him sell. He went on to tell me that it was a Zeagle Escape BC, Zeagle Flathead V1 reg, Zeagle Octo-z secondary, dive computer is a Aeris XR2 with nitrox. Other misc stuff includes spear gun, equipment bag, and other stuff I already own such as mask, fins, booties, snorkel. The equipment has 2 dives on it, all looks brand new. The guy is getting out of diving and will sell the package for 700 bucks. Any thoughts, suggestions on this package deal would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Justin
