Hey again!
Just moved to montery and I am looking for places for my girlfriend to try on wetsuits.
Right now the goal is to get her more comfortable in the water by snorkeling/free diving so a dry suit isnt an option and renting gear for her is getting expensive. I have put some consideration into a custom suit but the cost is way to prohibitive considering that if she decides that diving isnt for her then I could be out alot of money in short order...
So far I have been to:
Aquarius - one scubapro wetsuit that fits and seems way overpriced. I like this shop, its small but the staff is helpful and they are pretty nice about giving discounts
Bamboo Reef - one pinnacle suit that almost fits and is priced pretty well. Asking about a discount got the sales rep all defensive, alot of stuff is way overpriced big inventory with an attitude that got me running out the door...
Monterey Dive Center - nada nice little shop without a lot of selection.
I really like the thought of supporting a local dive shop especially when the lds makes an effort to take care of you... But when they make it clear that the goal here is to take me for all they can I have to draw the line and go elsewhere...
So where else can I go around monterey to look at wetsuits???
