Hey people!
I have been doing a bit of soloing in various places in Asia. It all started when, soon after being certified OW, I got tired of chasing after speed-swimming-third-rate DM's and insta-buddies and decided to do my own thing.
These days I tend to take a lot of time with photography and get irritated when other people are around and in a rush to move on. I still enjoy solo diving but there have been a few "what if...." moments and I am completely sold on the idea of taking an alternate air source on the next solo dive.
Im here to ask HOW?
( A few details)
Im staying above 30m.
Warm water, "good" vis (10m +)
Diving with a "standard" BC and regs
Prefer to be relatively unencumbered by too much crazy equipment.
Will always have my camera.
What do you use as a spare when you travel? Keep in mind I'm probably going to be flying on airlines that wont let me keep a pony bottle in any part of my luggage.
How do you carry your alternate when/if you need to have a freer range of movement for, say, photography?
Any answers would be much appreciated!
