I was recommended this one today, but to get my own helmet if I didn't want head lice.

That's where I booked. Came highly recommended near the beginning of this thread.

I ended up getting full gear (sans pants) though. Reading through their website, PPE is at a minimum and you've got to get there early to get it. I'm not a fan of wearing stuff hundreds of people have sweated up. Or spending two days in stuff that doesn't fit well. I'd much rather be focused on the course and not the fact that a glove keeps falling off, or the helmet has a pressure point. I'd say your own helmet is a bare minimum. Followed by the nice to haves of boots, then jacket, then gloves. It's not like you're not going to need the gear later anyways.
