Welcome to ScubaBoard and the 70% of The Water Planet that relatively few ever get to see firsthand.

Spend some time adding to your dive experience with dives under varied conditions and get used to it before heading off into cave or sidemount diving

This.

You have a lot of new expensive equipment, start using it before getting any more.

Agreed I want to work on Buoyancy control.. I'm ok but can use improvement ... I've been selling equipment on eBay.. Friend of mine dad past last yr and was a cave wreck rescue photographer for 20yrs and I bout all of their equipment.. Since I have the money laying around I was just going to start looking into gear for the caves but not go in them I've seen some really nice training I like but he was in Mexico lol ima start looking in Florida I guess ... Also where is the section you post things for sale here? I can't wait to become a master diving and maybe more!! Any good recommendations on an instructor for the caves?? Thanks everybody ...

Hi Steven, If I was you I would get as much diving experience in open water before I would even think about cave diving, you should have at least 100 dives in before you start cave training, plus this tech training is not cheap so you should master bouyancy and wreck diving first.

Thanks for the reply... I will def do the wreck diving class and continue to work on buoyancy... Right now money isn't a issue... I'm going to study as much as I can so when the time comes I'll be prepared.. As for the equipment I always find deals and as I wait till I'm ready for caves I was thinking maybe keeping a open eye for gear and maybe snatch it up as I go... Also thinking about a rebreather .. Will be atleast a yr before I get that one though lol. And if getting equipment now to then is a bad idea I would still like to study the art... I know I have to be patient I need time I this hobby before moving forward!! Just excited I guess lol !! I love animals ... Sea creatures and the adventure!!

Even though money isn't an issue and you have it "just laying around" I suggest to save your money for now and wait until you're ready to use the equipment that you buy. There will be plenty of equipment available to buy once your ready to use it.

Also, keep in mind that you're just someone behind a computer that just created an account on Scuba Board. Don't be offended if people are going to be reluctant to send you thousands of dollars for your gear and hope that you are legit..
