I recently acquired an Zeagle BCD with weight integration pockets. I recently gotten my OW cert. and my instructor told me I couldn't use my weight integration BCD for my training and checkout dives and I was forced to use his weight belt.
Can anybody tell me the pros and cons, from using the BCD versus weight belt? I've haven't been able to try it myself and don't want to complicate things on my next dive.
