    I agree with Ace's recommendation to go with a BP/Wing setup if you want versatility as well as simplicity. I would caution you about the wings that are said to be good for both singles and small doubles -- these are typically crap. If you go this route buy your wing to fit your diving needs; use a singles wing for single cylinder setups, and buy a doubles wing once you have progressed to diving twinsets.

    Sure thing, having 2 different(or more) wings is the way to go if you are diving both doubles and singles if that is an option for you. Of course if you can afford doubles and all of the gear to go with that, another wing is not going to be your biggest concern anyway. I was just trying to show the options out there.


    Now how much is £400? I have no idea if $400 is anywhere near £400.

    Not sure of the exact exchange rate, but £400 is about twice as much as $400.

    Good deal, with that other $400 he could buy another piece of gear or go on some nice dives!


    Aah, looking back at the original post, he said he wanted a regulator as well. Now he can put that other £200 towards that.

    Now as far as regulators go.....man there are soooooooo many choices.

    Thanks Acelocko, you seem to have a genuine regard for new divers, even thousands of miles away! I hadn't considered your wing idea,yet................

    Thanks, I hadn't considered this option but as with most things in life it pays to be open minded...........
