Lets assume for a minute you are taking a trip with 2 or 3 other full cave certified divers down to Q. Roo for some cave diving fun. All dives utilizing preexisting line but there will likely be jumps and gaps at every site.
With the new luggage requirements I dont want to bring more than necessary and I dont want to have to rent much gear either.
I currently only own some spools as I borrowed the reels for my full cave cert so I will need to buy something.
After extensive reading I settled on the salvo 400 for a primary and I really like the Larry Green reels for safety and jump use.
but since there are multiple divers going how many of everything do we need as a group. I figure depending if the forth person goes we will either have 1 team of 3 or 2 teams of 2 but lots of variables come into play with this as there could potentially be 7 divers total if the stars align.
do you think all members (assume 3-4 for now) should bring 1 primary, 1 jump, and of course 1 safety. Maybe we only need a couple primaries, even with 2 or 3 teams we will all be on the same lines and technically planning the dives as a group so either way we will probably end up with to many reels in total. I just dont want to bring to much and no one else does either. Thanks
