I posted this in the BC questions area and it was suggested that I ask the locals what they use and like/suggest.
Ultimatly I was sold on the Mares that I mention below as a good Cold water and travel CB but I guess any input on this would be great.
Thanks
"My wife and I are new to the diving family and are tired of using junk rental equiptment when we travel and dive locally, so we're in the process of gearing up.
I though that I was sold on the Mares Dragon BC for me and the Mares Kaila for my wife, the on-line reviews all spoke highly of it, they fit great, so I was on to find the best price and buy them. Then I logged on here to see if there was any additional information. I see all the posts about the problems with the weight pockets failing and either breaking or falling out causing an uncontrolled accent?
Have the problems been addressed by Mares? Are these safe BS's for new divers to get, dive with and grow our skills in?
I really don't want to have a great dive turned in to a tragedy by my equiptment choice.
Any input would be great! Thanks All
