It must be location - here in NJ Craiglist has 20 or 25 year old equipment at 2021 prices... It is as if they are trying to hit the lottery - most if not all of it was not taken care of and is just a big pile of dog doo...
I need to move so I can get in on some of that just bought and need to get some money back...
My soon to be 10 year old grandson has all his own gear. Including cylinder, bcd, reg set, wet suit, Shearwater Perdix and of course mask, fins (jet fins). He starts his Jr Open Water class in July.
Of course it doesn’t hurt that his grandfather is a NAUI instructor and cave diver.
Are you sure the wetsuit is going to fit in July?? Some kids go through growth spurts starting around ten.
