I live in Sacramento, California and I will be attending UCSF school of dentistry next year, so I plan on spending more time diving since I will be so close to the ocean. I will be there at least 4 years so I would like to invest in my first scuba setup. As of now all I have are fins, booties, mask, and snorkel.
What thickness should I get for my wetsuit, gloves and hood? I am trying to be as economical as possible seeing as how I am a starving student, so I've been looking at a couple of packages that seem like pretty good deals.
Package 1:Mares Morphos Airtrim BCD, The Aris 4 gauge console, Dacor Eagle regulator & octopus, simple, ultra-light and top performing second stage with reinforced technopolymer construction. $550
Package 2:MARES ARIA BC, MARES MR12 AXIS PRO, MARES AXIS PRO OCTOPUS, ARIS 4 GAUGE CONSOLE, Axis Pro second stage $540
Do these packages seem like a good deal? Is either regulator better than the other? I am not sure if I should do a package deal or buy each item seperately. My biggest concern is buying a regulator that is economical but still a quality piece of equipment.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
