So with the holidays coming up on us forthwith, I'm preparing for my trip to Cozumel. But here's my question. What is the best way to pack a wetsuit for travel, so you don't get any folds in the arms or wherever? I don't yet have a dive gear bag because, well, I don't own any dive gear yet. I have fins/mask/booties, etc. I'm going to use a big backpack (like what hippie travelers like me use) since my fins will fit in there. I was tenatively thinking that I could use my fins as a base and roll my wetsuit around the fins so it wasn't folded, place this in the middle of my bag, and then stabilize the sides with other articles of clothing.
So what do you think? Good idea? Stupid idea? Yes, I know. Get a gear bag. But funds are a bit low now.
