i like the baller USCG vest, the baller comp vest gets all balled up on the inside after a while, i also kinda like the extra padding..dont waste your $ on the carbon Giro Remedy..just get the regular one..

O'brien vest from Sam's club.
Bell Bellistic helmet

I like that first vest the best.
I couldn't see spending $280 or a helmet when you can get a good bellistic for $50 or $60

I have a flight side entry
and the giro carbon remedy helmet.
helmet is comfy, most of the padding is removable.
It's quite light, even when wet... I barely notice it when riding.
shop around at local bike shops though, I got it for quite a bit less than the blowsion price.

Two things I dont highly recommend, even tho myself and many people have used them over the years. Is the Slippery pull over vest, its got a nice thick chest if you go into the bars but otherwise its just a bulky vest. Actually one more good thing, it has no front buckles so if doing hood tricks it doesnt scratch the ski.

The other is the SixSixOne bravo helmet, it fits good and feels good out of the water, but anytime I go under with I feel like I cant breathe and I am used to it.

I think I got mine for about $100. Well worth it given the number of times it's saved me from my carbon "pole pad". Find a local sports store that's clearing the Lacrosse helmets off the display to put out the hockey helmets - you should get a decent discount.
