Just got my SDI Solo card and ready to start Solo diving. I know what the book says you should bring but what do you bring with you when you solo?
Of coarse I two independent tanks (sidemount), fins, mask and etc.
I have a surface maker with flag that can be towed.
Since I'm doing a lake with max depth of less than 25 feet I'm going to skip the extra mask since my mast are prescription mask and expensive and I have no problem swimming without mask on. I'm carrying three cutting devices - knife on the waist, scissors in the pocket and line cutter on the shoulder. I have two reels - one 50 foot in my pocket and 100 foot on my d-ring and lot times carry a 200 foot to practice laying cave line. I'm carrying a large DAN SMB in the pocket. Two lights but my dives are during the daylight hours, if doing night I would carry 3 lights. A set of dive tables, not really needed since this area of the lake is max depth of 30 feet. Compass on my wrist and small slate with compass in my pocket.
Is there anything else you would recommend for shallow day time lake dives?
