Gear List
We recommend that you wait to buy the more expensive items, if you have not already done so, until you come out for training. This will allow you a chance to put your hands on some really cool items and try them out before you buy them. You Do not have to have everything on this list in order to join the group or come out and practice. The list below is an example of the items we will use during our training. Depending on your plan, with-in the group, will determine the gear sets you will need to buy. As always, any questions feel free to reach out on our contact page. We look forward to seeing you out soon.
