QUOTE(michlove @ Sep 25 2017, 10:56 AM) Hi Everyone! Open waters newbie here! Actually I got my PADI license in April this year and after that I didn't had time to go for another diving trip...not only until last weekend, I went to Pulau Tenggol again....and the instructor was so good to quide me during the daytrips and after doing 6 dives....my bouyancy is perfect now. And I'm so into diving already! So, to continue diving, I really need to buy a mask, fins and a wet suit. Any recommendations?  First we need to know whether its for she or he?

QUOTE(michlove @ Sep 25 2017, 12:21 PM) oopss....sorry. For a she pls  Ahhh..u wait for reply..all unker here very helpful. My advise is first choose which colour u want to be seen underwater. After that, go thru items which has those colours. Go from bottom to top. Fins, wetsuit, bcd, reg, mask....or you go by the brand.. just choose a brand...and buy all the stuff from that. Life is easier like dat.

QUOTE(michlove @ Sep 25 2017, 12:23 PM) im using that fin too with a size S fin and a size 8 boots, i think S should be fine since the the size is suitable for UK 5~8, good luck finding pink since wherever i go they dont seem to have it, so white for me This post has been edited by KiraTomaru: Sep 25 2017, 06:25 PM

QUOTE(michlove @ Sep 25 2017, 02:23 PM) While you're at the shop check out the Mares Avanti Quattro+. I haven't used either fin, but that's what I prefer if I'm looking at getting a Mares fin. It has a simpler construction and comes with bungee straps standard. If you don't know what bungee or spring straps are, try them out at the shop and see how easy it is compared to a buckle strap.
