I have been diving for about 15 years, but sadly never off the coast of NY/NJ...as a local, definitely time to change this!
I have heard that most people dive 120s, true? I am trying to decide between PST E7-120s and E8-130s. I am 6'3" and 220lbs. Some people (particularly in the DIR community) have told me that 130s are definitely, no questions about it, the only way to go (despite the fact that the LP104s no longer exist, they claim the 130s maintain their superior buoyancy characteristics based on "water displacement") ...others say the extra 10cuft., unless really needed, does not justify the added heft/bulk of the 130 and that the 120 is the way to go.
I am left in the middle very confused. Do many people dive 130s here? Can anyone who has dived both please tell me their preference and why?
Thank you very much!
