First off hello.
I live in hawaii and have been seriously diving for about two years. I have all my gear (gun,wetsuit,mask,float with line etc.,fins, weight belt) Out here I am covered when it comes to quality gear. I paid a good amount for it all and I love what I have.
My question is this. Besides the wetsuit (water is colder in California) Should I just bring all my equipment home with me or should I start over? I have a picasso 110 modified double band with no reel, cressi sub dive fins, AQA Naida silicon mask and a hard plastic dive float with flag and everything else. What do you know of transfering equipment?
 
Are you moving back to California? I'd suggest that the wetsuit is the only piece of equipment might not work in California waters, especially if you want longer dives. Even so, a thinner suit can still come in handy :) Welcome, by the way.
 
Sounds like your geared up for just about anything. The only advice I would give is that you may want to invest in a little shorter of a gun as the water vis will be alot less, you will be in closer proximity with fish in kelp beds and what not. a 75 or a 90 cm gun might be a worthy investment. With your 110 you will have no problem shooting medium sized yellow tail or white sea bass.

Good Luck
