£299 for a compressed neoprene dry suit!? Wow - funny thing is i was staying at my friends house in Derby on Friday night so I could get to SDS early on Saturday. Do you have there number or do they have a web-site? SDS are charging £450 for Spitzergen suit...
OK - Gonna take a deep breath... The problem is i may be too enthusiastic about starting diving...
To finish training I can use the club kit - but - the minimum i need is the dry suit. So I'll try Go Dive and SDS and maybe even Divers Warehouse for both membrane and compressed neo suits on Saturday. I'll hold off the rest of the other equipment till I can try some options.
The problem I have is that no matter how much reading I do, or how many opinions I get - they all tend to be different!! I really appreciate all your feedback though - so i'm definitely gonna hold off for another couple of weeks (hope no-one from SDS is reading this right now!!) ;)
I've taken everything else on board too! I don't expect to be instructing anytime this year! Definitely want the experience first. Redundant air supply is noted. Given the fact how highly the Commando BCD with it's additional cylinder is rated I'm surprised it isn't considered as a viable "bail out" system (marketed as such in the brochure I have)...
Anyway - can't thank you enough for the info - i'm looking forward to joining you on one of your trips in the future and annoying the #### out of you with my queries!! Once I'm up to a suitable experience level that is!!
Thanks again...
