We've all got a favourite bit of kit. Whether it be a weathered 20 year old mask that's still leak free or a brand new wetsuit that's not been christened yet! 😉

We caught up with Leon, the boss, and asked him what his favourite bit of kit is. Here's his answer:
"I love a freshly serviced set of regulators. The clean threads and smooth adjustments make my man senses all tingly!" 👌

What have you got in your kit that you just can't dive without? 😎 Tell us in the comments below 👇

The viz may have been a bit poor, but we were toasty at 20°C in Swanage Bay last night 🤿
