What are your 3 favorite pieces of SCUBA Gear???

[noj3333]

Spread some live for your favorite products, or maybe give a newer diver something to chew on when thy're thinking about gear choices...

At any rate, list your 3 or 4 favorite pieces of gear (be specific... 'Halcyon Eclipse 40lbs wing', NOT 'My BP/W).

Here's mine (not in any specific order).

1. Shearwater Perdix AI Computer w/ transmitter
2. Deep6 Eddy Fins w/ hard soled Henderson Boots
3. Halcyon 3.3 meter DSMB w/ Dive Gear Express SS Spool

1. Apollo Bio Tank Lock. $100, but a tank will never slip and no wetting straps.
2. Spring fin straps. Other than full foot folks, anyone NOT use these?
3. 3 fingered "lobster" mitts. Hands always warm, unlike the rest of you.

1. Koah 52 Speargun - cause it pays me to dive
2. Hex Armor 9016 needle proof gloves - So I don't get stung, bit & hurt.
3. Standard Horizon 2way radio in a McMurdo canister - So I get picked up to go home.

@TMHeimer... I remember Googling the Apollo Bio Tank Lock cam bands after reading another thread where you mentioned them... this just brought them back into the mix for my BP/W I'm building...

Also I agree with Spring Straps. My first set of fins didn't have them (I didn't know they existed)... but once I had a set, I'd never go back!

Jealous... I just keep telling myself, "Good things come to those who wait".

I have a lot of gear I like. At the moment I'm going to say:

1. Perdix AI w/ transmitter
2. XTAR D26 Whale L2 U3 (cool light)
3. Poseidon XStream regulators

I have a number of wings I like for different reasons and in different environments but no one wing I'd pick over any other.

Be careful... I dropped around $5,000 on gear last year and even more on dive trips.

Oh, I know... I just want to try one of the hard to get 'Freedom Contour Backplates'... I'm on the wait list though...
