I'm wanting to get into diving in the UK and would like some advice on getting my own kit.

I've seen an advertisement for a store near me that sells 2nd Hand gear at the end of each season from the dive school. They do a complete package Dry suit, undersuit, BCD, Regs + Gauges and a Cylinder. The complete kit is around £650 which seems like a pretty good price. I'd be interested to know if anyone has bought a package like this or if you pick and choose the gear you want.

Problem is I want to get diving and don't want to pay a fortune up front. I thought I could buy better gear in stages as I get into it.

Final point is that the store makes the ROHO drysuits so if anyone has any comments about these this would also be much appreciated. It's the ROHO Commercial that comes in the deal.

Thanks,

Rich.
