Dive socks and Gloves too. I also recommend having a safety whistle and signal mirror. In summer 3mm is generally good. In winter you may need a 5mm suit. Aim to get a belt with a quick release buckle, so you can ditch it quickly if needed. Maybe check the spearfishing buy / sell group on FB. Also might be worth getting in touch with the local spearo clubs, as their members may have stuff they want to sell off. With the mask i recommend try them on before buying. They all fit differently and the most expensive wont necessarily fit the best for you. |
