Depends what kind of diving you are doing and where you will be diving. I would never buy a black silicone mask unless I was into underwater photography. Having the silicone rubber all black will cut out lots of light from the water and reduce your visibility, which is perfect if you are a serious photographer but a disadvantage if you're not. Plus other divers will snigger at you as they look like gimp masks.
The fins look quite short, if you have powerful legs and a strong fin kick these will be fine, if you don't, longer fins will give you more propulsion through the water - not too long though or they'll make your legs ache.
The snorkel doesn't look like it has a purge valve, which is a one way valve at the bottom of the J which you can blow excess water out of, these are much easier to use than normal J shape snorkels.
As for the boots....... If you are diving from the shore where you will have to walk over rocks etc. they would be just the job. They look better for walking in than diving, if they are not flexible they will seriously hurt your ankles while you are finning. Iif you're diving from a boat or shore diving on sandy and gravelly surfaces the boots at the bottom of the page with the mask snorkel and fins will be perfect.
The gear looks good but it's expensive and you can get better for your money. You are better off visiting a dive shop where you can try the gear on before buying. Mares are one of the best makes of fins on the market. Clear silicon masks will give you more visibility and it's essential you try before you buy to find the best fit for your face shape. To test the mask fold the strap in front of it, put the mask up to your face ensuring your hair isn't trapped under it then breathe in through your nose, a good mask fit will stick to your face in this position only coming off when you breathe out. Check the bit below your nose doesn't sit low on your lip or it will leak when you hold the regulator in your mouth as it will break the seal.
Happy diving.

Denver Scuba Dive Vacations Start With Scuba Lessons And Diving Gear
Scuba diving is a great way to explore a lovely new location, and many people choose Denver scuba dive vacations for this purpose. If you are ready to try something new and are looking for an adventurous time, you will want to start with scuba lessons. Denver swimmers will also need appropriate Colorado scuba diving equipment, and with that, you will be ready for your underwater vacation.
A great place to start is with scuba lessons. Denver residents can partake of a range of lessons, starting with a beginning introductory course and even working up to professional certification in diving. Children at least eight years of age can also participate in such scuba lessons; Denver families would then be able to scuba dive together on vacation. After the beginner's class, you can work up to open water certification, where you will learn to be a safe and responsible diver. If you already know how to scuba dive but need a refresher course or continuing education classes, these are also available and will help to further prepare you for great Denver scuba dive vacations.
Another aspect that will require your attention before your diving vacation is the selection of the appropriate Colorado scuba diving equipment. Some people find that getting in and out of airports is easier if they simply rent equipment once they reach their destination, while others prefer using their own customized divers equipment. Colorado divers in both instances will need assistance at first so they have all the appropriate Colorado scuba diving equipment at their disposal. Some of the basics that you will need are masks, fins and snorkels, as well as regulators, BCDs and dive computers. Your diving instructor can help you get started so that you will be outfitted with the suitable divers equipment. Colorado swimmers can also rent equipment, so that each article can be tried out prior to taking it out on your Denver scuba dive vacations, in order to test out how each piece works for you and determine if you like it. Armed with that information, you can make informed purchases of great diving gear. Denver divers will also want to take into account that there are different sizes of diving gear. Denver swimmers can select from equipment that is sized for larger or smaller swimmers, and get a great fit in diving gear. Denver divers, after making purchases, will also want to make sure the equipment remains viable by having it serviced annually.
Colorado scuba diving equipment is sold by diving academies online for your convenience.
