I've been spending most of my time and "hobby energy" wingsuiting over the past few years, but have always managed to get in 10-20 dives over the course of the year (normally when on vacation to somewhere warm)
Lately I've been thinking of spending more energy on scuba and was thinking about purchasing some gear.
I've already got too many hobbies and gear associated with those hobbies
skydiving
kitesurfing
snowboarding
dirtbiking
motorbike racing
downhill mountainbiking
ipsc
etc
etc
but was wondering if there is a minimum gear choice that you would make to have some gear that is your own and not rely on rental.
is it worth getting a few things, or unless your going to get everything dont bother?
I currently travel with my mask and fins when me and the wife are on vacation and was thinking about adding a reg, or reg and bcd.
wondering if any of you have done a minimum gear purchase for holiday diving and either recommend it or regret it?
I live in a place with some amazing cold water diving but am not in a position to go full in for cold water diving (drysuit etc) so I'm hoping anything I get could double in cold water and just rent the added pieces that I need.
most of the use would be for warm water vacation dives.
cheers
