Hello,

I'm a newbie and I'm looking for a BCD.
I'm 6'1" a tad under 17stone, 38 waist and 50" chest.
I have been looking at new and second hand units like
Tusa Platina Evolution
SEAQUEST BLACK DIAMOND BC WING
and anything else that has been cropping up on the EEEEbay.
I'm not sure if integrated Lock weight system are a must but they do sound nice :)

Cressi travelight sounds ok because I will be taking the BCD on my holl's but my dive club have kind of warned me away from this kind of BCD as they are not a hard waring. they are mostly on Tusa BCD.

Do I need a wing if they are lighter or as a newbie would it not suit me?

Can anyone recommend, help or give aid to what I should be looking at?

Regards

Warren.

Ps im in lancashire, England
