New diver here, I have been collecting my own set of gear for the last two months.
Mostly used CL stuff, a lot of people get out of this sport as quickly as they get in.
I have a trip to the Puget Sound next Friday and hope that I have everything I may need.
Anyway, I have:
7 mil John/Jacket/hood, 6 mil booties and 3 mil gloves (upon reccomendation it's better to have cold hands then reduced dexterity)
Fins w/extra strap/buckles
Two masks (with sea drops) and snorkels...I plan to carry the extra mask in my bc pocket while diving, wouldn't want to have to surface after possibly losing a mask might even help with finding it
Reg's serviced and tested once in a pool.
BC w/weight pouches and a weight belt (seems like a good idea to split up the weight so any loss/ditch is less of a buoyancy change)
Console with pressure gauge, computer, and compass
1000 lum primary light and a tec80 as a backup (I'm just getting started and am in over $1000 already)
1 aluminum 80 yoke and 2 aluminum 92's din, reg setup and tested for din and I have a yoke adapter.
Spare Air Don't know why the hatred, I like to have a 4th option for no air situations (buddy, octo, spare air cesa)
Goodie Bag, Safety sausage, whistle, primary and bc knife, coulple of snap locks
Start on a save a dive kit (silicone grease, o-rings, tools, manuals for everything, etc.)
OW card and dive log
Is there anything I'm missing?
