This is in no way set up to discourage or scare any new diver out there! SCUBA gear is almost bulletproof! I know this from better than 10 years in the industry and over twenty years as a diver. If you watch Myth Busters they proved SCUBA Tanks are in fact "Bullet Proof". My question and what I am looking for is more along the lines of what is really expected and how have you been disapointed or pleased? Weight belts vs. integrated BC's ect. Computer costing extra? If rental gear has failed you I want to know why and how!
Shops are required to service their gear and the gear is required to be safe but whats the deciding factor for good rental and bad rental gear? even if you are on your third or fourth set of personal gear you have rented in the past, there is no shame in it we've all had to rent at one point so lets find out why people complain so much about rental gear!
