Hey all! New to diving (wife and I getting PADI certified in early November) and the site. This looks like the place to come with some questions for some honest and unbiased answers. My wife was certified about 8 years ago, and I only have snorkeling experience, but have always wanted to go diving.
Anyways, we would like to begin building our equipment collection, and we don't really know where to start. What are some good brands vs ones to stay away from? How much should we expect to spend on a full kit? Is there anything we should buy first? (Our lessons came with a mask/snorkel/fins set)
We live in SW Washington State, but would like to do some warm water diving too.
Sorry for the long post....thanks for your help!
