driftin' by:We use a pair of these. Akona's Roller Duffels model #AKB224
Why? They are tough as nails, have plenty of room, don't necessarily scream "Scuba inside, steal me!", they have compression straps and are/were somewhat inexpensive but they suck a keeping cervezas cold! I recall ours were considerably less (~$65 each) at the time (~3 years ago) from an online vendor but I cannot remember who we got them from. It wasn't LP or Scuba Toys.
Akona has a newer version of the roller duffel for '07 but I cannot vouch for it.
Yes, that Akona is fantastic! My wife and I dive and we use that Akona for our BCs, regs and other "hardware". We also use a fantasticly tough Akona duffel (can't remember model #) for the soft goods (wetsuits, fins, etc.). We have never exceeded the 52 lb limit on either. We also carry a rolled up duffel inside the other "travel" duffel. When we get to the hotel we transfer the gear from the hardshell roller into that other duffel and carry the two soft duffels to the boat. I've never plugged a manufacturer on this board before, but Akona is "good stuff."
