Hey everyone. Just got Open Water certified in Los Angeles. Looking for recommendations on my first scuba setup. I've been on Diver Supply looking at their package deals. Looking to spend around $1000. Any advice?

For Socal you can use a 7mm one piece back zip. Depending on what type of hood you have, hooded vests work the best with back zip one piece suits. The bib style leak and will shoot cold water down your back. But in a pinch bib style hoods will work if the water wsrms up a bit. If you’re a surfer you probably are no stranger to California water temps.Yes I have my mask fins gloves and hood. I have a few wetsuits from surfing but need a 7mm or similar
