Hey everybody,
I prefer to bring my own equipment when I travel, but my camera equipment/underwater housing take up a small suitcase and backpack (carryon + personal item) so I am trying to get my dive gear and clothes into one sub-50lb bag. On my most recent trip, I checked 2 bags and as you can imagine that gets expensive. Looking for some help on getting the weight of my dive gear down as much as possible.
Here's my gear breakdown:
Thanks in advance!
PS. I'm sure some folks are going to want to comment on my decision to use the SS1, but it's a decision I've already made and am extremely comfortable/practiced with so we can skip those.
