Is it crazy?! So the idea has been forming in my mind of combining my two habits. So maybe someone has done this.
I normally carry a laptop backpack with books and other various stuff packed into it. It gives it a good weight. So, I'm thinking of getting a dive backpack (esp. since I want to use my bio-fins).
I'll be planning on bringing my fins, mask, regulator, booties and b/c. Hopefully if I use my bike (70mpg) instead of driving my jeep (15mpg) I can get far enough to actually make it to sites where I can get by in 30-50' of warm water in just a swimsuit. Not that I really mind standing around in 100 degree weather in a full 7mm. But if I wanted to do that, I can just drive there.
So any backpack recommendations?
Any b/c recommedations that might be lighter or pack better? I've got a jacket BC that I'm happy with, but it can be bulky. I'm thinking i'll have a great excuse to get a bp/w set-up. =P Of course, I'd rather spend the money on diving...
Thanks for any help. And yeah, I can tend to be wordy sometimes...
