uh oh.
I don't pony cause I don't want the drag and the weight.
I dive with a buddy below 90 ft.
Dennis, you bought a pony, have you ever set it up?
people are always telling me to dive with two lights, strobes, two sausages, pony, doubles, all kinds of a load. I could not do the dives I like with all that stuff.--okay, in a way that I enjoy. I carry a SMB and that's it. Oh, the camera, which is all I can handle. I think I would be more likely to get in trouble with all the weight. heck, I don't think I could get on the boat in rough seas. Current is tough enough, add all that, and I feel like an anchor.
So...you did ask, and those are the reasons. Traveling with it would be a pain too.
But, my opinion is not popular.
We know when people run out of air and die. Who knows how many die of heart attacks or drown hauling all that stuff around in the ocean?
