Large DSS SS backplate with 17lb Torus wing and hog harness, new miflex hoses for my wife and my regs. I-Torch Advance A light. A couple of DSS boots for a SK7 compass and my Aeris computer. A new Aeris Atmos AI computer for the wife.

I like high quality stuff and all that is IMO.
 
We have bought:

For her:
BP/Wing hogarthian setup, DS350 DUI Drysuit with hood, gloves & rock boots and zip seals, Pinnacle dry suit undergarments, Hollis F1's fins, an S600/MK25 reg set, an OMS backup reg (bungied), long hose.

Me:

Ikelite video housing & light, DS350 DUI Drysuit with hood, gloves & rock boots, Hollis F1 fins, OMS backup reg (bungied), Pinnacle dry suit undergarment, other brand dry suit undergarment, dry suit insulating socks, three 120 LP steel tanks.

Been an expensive scuba year so far.
 
Dacor CDP-2 Custom Pak and JV 3/4-2 manifold, ex cond at less than 60s retail because I like doing it r. No retirement for me.
 
A third dry suit (need to sell one off).

A third scooter (need to sell one off).

A third set of doubles (keeping them all).
 
Intova backup light. Motivation: My buddy had one and it was way better for daytime nook&cranny searching than my current one. Got it from BH Photo and they were awesome.

EMT shears. Motivation: My 10" dive knife is great for hitting myself in sensitive places, but not ideal for cutting things.

About two thousand cubic feet of air. Motivation: Seemed better than drowning.
 
Long hose (changed to miflex), a Halcyon Infinity 30lb for my wife, two iTorches, a couple of bolt snaps

(waiting delivery)
Spring strap kit for her split fins, Whites Fusion with Fusion boots and undies, Whites Military spec bag, a pair of Hollis F1 fins
 
About the only thing I could think of that I bought new this year was magnetic octo holders from Piranha and a new set of wetnotes from them. The wetnotes are great; the magnetic octo holders don't work very well. Nobody recommended them; I just got intrigued by their ad.

Everything else we have bought was used.
