Tusa Scuba
Tuesday, December 21st, 2010
What are the reputations of the following scuba brands: TUSA, Oceanics, Scubapro, Mares, seaquest, genesis?
I am trying to figure out which brand i want to get. i want a very popular brand that is an excellent value and a brand not known for “gimmicks”. I want a tried and true design, and a well respected brand. please offer me your advice. thanks!
They all offer decent recreational gear and none really stand out for an entire product line over the others. It wouldn’t be uncommon for you to have a gear set made up of some or all of these brands.
Ultimately, it really comes down to what features you require, your body type. the type of diving you’ll be doing, what type of diving you plan on doing when you move up in experience, the after purchase support offered by the dive shop you buy from and plain old personal preference.
You’ll find that the dive shop you settle on, will push only what they have a dealership for, not unlike buying a vehicle.
In any event, try before you buy. Many shops will allow this with a set of demos.
Lol..most of my gear didn’t even make it on your list, but then again it’s tech gear.
