Rental gear will be low end, very well used.
With your own gear, you know exactly how well it's been taken care of. You just take 2 suitcases. I have a hard sided Pelican box for my gear and a suitcase for my clothes......

Thats what I'm concerned with...I don't know how the rental equipment is treated. And honestly, sharing a reg just skeeves me.
I've been looking around on the internet and stopped by a local shop. I'm going to go to a second one sometime next week who has more options. I'm looking mainly at warm water stuff, because unfortuantly, I'm not going to be able to do much cold water diving. I have asthma, and while my doc ok'd me to do warm water he "stongly advised" against cold water (because cold is my trigger).
