Hi All,
I shall be visiting and diving in the Philippines for one whole month late December and early January 2020.
I normally dive Sidemount Solo, however, I realise this may not be possible and I will have to switch to dive open circuit with a dive operator/buddy system and use some rental gear. so my thoughts were to downsize my own diving gear to fit into one suitcase and rent open circuit gear as little as possible.
Have any of you experienced having the basic travel gear to dive and travel at the same time?
For example, my OMS Slipstream fins are heavy and too big so any recommendations for a replacement set of smaller fins or other fins or a minimilistic BCD with weight pockets as I hate diving with a weight belt.
I hope I have conveyed my questions correctly for your understanding and look forward to any replies of your experiences.
Much appreciated.
Fastnail.
