Hello lockpickers, one of my friends bought a Covert Intruments Genesis set recently and I decided to play with it. Turns out I very much enjoyed it and managed to pick the beginner clear lock in 7 seconds after a couple days. So I did some research to find out what to buy for myself to get started on this journey.
So far I’m eyeing Sparrow’s The Spirit set but found this reddit thread in the process. So I might go with the hooker set and get a tuxedo case separately.
As for locks to practice with, I’m considering getting all the sparrows clear locks as they seem to have a good variety and seems to be beginner friendly to practice with.
Let me know your suggestions below, I’ll be glad to learn from your experiences.

Yes, I joined but I’m not able to participate because I don’t want to give my phone number, so I’m not able to join. I feel like just an email verification or a captcha bot would suffice but that’s up to the admins to decide, I don’t make the rules.
If you let me know your name on discord I’ll give you a role to get around the phone number verification. We have that active to combat spam accounts.
