Need a ladies help

My girl is looking to start diving and I am looking to get her equipment..

SHE LOVES PINK.. and do you know what a pain in the ass it is to find pink stuff????


She likes the aqualun pearl... but im not thrilled with the IC3 inflator thing

do you ladies have any suggestions for what I can find for her that is lady like and still a good piece of equipment....


that goes for fins, regs, and masks too..

any picture of your gear would be helpful to convince her that its girly... an actual picture or just link is fine

I know Scubapro makes their Twin Jet in pink. It's not on their website bit one of our instructors has a pink pair.

I believe Zeagle will make a BC in what ever color you want.

Find the pink gear, it's worth it. Pink makes for nice photos....it holds it's color at depth longer than more conservative colors.

tusa has pink fins, mask & snorkel. bio fin has pink fins, ST has a pink floral panaromic mask & pink dry snorkel, henderson has the thermoprene & hyperstretch in pink, zeagle will let you choose custom color for zena, brigade or ranger. also ST does a pink mask strap with either yellow or purple on the other side.

The Zeagle Zena not only comes in Pink for an option, but also is made specifically for women and can be custom fitted. (LOVE mine)
Apollo Bio Fins come in pink as does some Tusa fins
I know I have seen quite a few masks and snorkels in pink.

Haven't seen many wetsuits in pink, but I am sure if you look hard enough, you could find one.

They called themselves Guerrilla Divers.
Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport".
Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage.
Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head.
This was a time of great Adventure.

Have her try the gear before you get it i know it sucks some of the fun out of the surprise, but it really sucks when she try's your fins and say i want some like this instead. She is the one who is going to use it.

I have the Aqualung pearl. I love the fit of it and at first was all excited about the i3. Not so much anymore. But you can have it retrofitted to a regular inflator (which is what I am going to have done) and I have been told then I can use either the i3 inflator or the inflator tube. It is back inflation which is a whole other animal (not for those who use BP/W but for people used to a traditional BCD). I've had a few issues with possible air trapping. But I still like it enough that I'm not getting rid of it.
