Closed Anyone have some quick release pockets?

[Christian Remwood]

I'm looking for a couple quick release pockets for a standard 2" webbing. I dive cold water with a thick wetsuit so I'm hoping for something big enough to hold 10-16lbs per pocket. Another option I might consider is 4 smaller pockets. I was thinking I could have 2 smaller non dumpable pockets to attach to my tank straps, and 2 smaller dumpable pockets for the front of my BC. Anyway I guess I'm saying I'm flexible and open to options. Thank you!

For your consideration, you might not want to have all your weight ditchable, just enough to allow you to swim yourself to the surface, if you dump all your weight you increase the probability you are going to shoot like a rocket to the surface.

You can add non-ditchable weight using a v-pouch that attaches to your backplate like this:

XS Scuba V Weight Pouch

and then I have found inexpensive weight pockets like this are good for holding a few pounds of ditchable weight.

all told a lot less expensive than buying big weight pouches that tend to run $100+
