What to look for in a gear package
Most gear packages come equipped with the same equipment to ensure you get the most from your dive.
Buoyancy Control Device
This is where the bulk of the expense is. Having a good BCD will ensure you can move effortlessly in the water weather you are standing on the ocean floor, floating at the surface, or swimming mid ocean. This is called maintaining neutral buoyancy and is crucial for a comfortable and enjoyable dive.
This is also the area which you attach your tank to. The most important feature to look for is to ensure that the fit is proper. You will want a snug fit that doesn’t squeeze you too tight when fully inflated.
Octopus
The octopus is the part of your gear that will connect you to the air in your tank. This is done by a mouthpiece that sits along your teeth. It is an important part of your gear that should not be overlooked.
Regulator
A regulator converts the highly pressurized gasses in your tank to breathable oxygen. Even inexpensive options will provide an excellent flow of air. More expensive ones will give more features and advantages. They can increase the depth you are able to achieve and can be compatible with different mixes of gases.
Computer
This can be either a wrist watch or an external device. Not all packages come with this but it should be seen as an important key incentive when looking into packages. It is important to find one that is easily legible and easy to use.
Globo Surf Overview
