HTML-код

- This is how I pack my entire Scuba Gear for Tropical diving/vacations and bring it along as Carry-On for Plane trips.
-- Duffle Bag by The North Face
Size: Small (50Litres)
-- Gear: ScubaPro Hydros BCD with Air2, Seawing nova Fins, MK25evo/S600 Reg, Tusa Freedom HD mask, Mantis 2 dive watch/computer.
-- I'd also be able to fit a beach towel and a few other smaller items like iPads, Phones, Flip flops, Wallets & Snacks.
Thanks for Watching \ooo/
Also I ended up buying the same north face bag for my set up because of this video! Haha blue seas ! 😊
Very nice video! And it was so fine of you to answer people's questions!
Please share some information about that North Face duffel backpack. L x W x H and its capacity in L. Many fins are too long for an acceptable airline carry on bag. Thank you.
I'm in the same boat Paul. Looking at buying the hydros pro but my large seawing fins puts me over the limit length wise. Trying to find a good bag for traveling but my upcoming trip is half land and half scuba so I need to take an equal amount of dry clothes. Like I'm looking at the ebags motherload 29" which has a divider and a bottom section that "should" hold my bcd, fins, and wetsuit as well as have a divider to keep my clothes seperate from salt, sand, leftover dampness, and smell (hopefully). Downer. That hydros pro bag is an awesome idea but doesn't work with most fins unless you count the small ones they use in the video. Plus, if you are doing a day dive that bag barely holds the gear dry let alone trying to fit it all in with a water logged wetsuit. That would be hard to pack up on a dive boat.
Its the Small size Duffle bag (50L) and my fins are the Medium size, they are shorter than previous fins I've owned. Dimensions of duffle are H32.5cm x W53cm x D32.5cm
What size are your Nova fins? Small... Medium?
They are Medium
Any reason for not using the travel bag supplied with the hydros pro? Just curious because that is the bcd I am looking at getting.
Hi there, yes i travelled with the supplied hydros bag but its very flimsy and has no structure whereas I find this North Face bag sturdy and tough.
The fins would also have to be stored externally on the Hydros bag.
Hi, what are the size in cm of the fins ? Like my Mares Avanti Quattro are 66cm long I dont know If it would fit in the north face backpack
Chloé Afp just look the fins up, they are called Scubapro seating nova 2 fins
Nicely done, just a question, where did you get the custom velcro strap for the M2.0 scubapro dive computer ? thank you.
I bought it online at a website I've since forgotten, but its called a 'Zulu strap' and if you use google you will be able to find plenty of retailers, if you wear a wetsuit make sure its a longer strap.
what type of north face bag is that ??
All the information is in the video description my friend, but Northface just make the one style of duffle bag. :)
What size is the north face bag?
Its the Small Duffle bag, information is in the video description :)
For all the people calling me "ignorant" I've got one for you. I was certified in 1975 and the term "octo" in it's original meaning meant your first stage with multiple hoses attached, not just your back up regulator. AND a BCD was called a BC, I don't know who in the F added the "D". You see most rec divers had a main reg and did oral inflate of their BC. with no back up reg. My COMMENT above was meant to say "where in the fuck are your regs?" I used the term "octo" in it's original usage . So I used the term "octo" because that's the way it was used when I was first certified. What my point was - where if the heck are your regs? You're saying your packed all nicely and ready to go but where are your regs?
His regs were scaled down to a first stage, a primary, and I believe one HP hose. I'm assuming his other LP hose is on his BC, and his backup 2nd stage is part of the oral inflator.
What bcd are you using
Scubapro Hydros Pro
thanks :) Brennig Neal
Didn't see you pack the somewhat bulky plastic integrated weight pouches. Separate bag? or are you a belt guy?
@@gordjenkins9574 He has it configured with the provide travel waist strap making the BCD much slimmer in profile. I have yet to use mine in this configuration.
Good video
Thank you my friend. Safe diving to ya.
What happen to your pants?
I got into a fight with my cat.
No octo but by god we got the snorkel !
The octopus is right there in the vid, Air2, always used it mate. Its great.
@@Ethan-rs1ws my god, people are stupid. Great video
Air2 you ignorant

@@philipnicholson3216 I PUT MY REGULATOR IN THE BAG AT THE 1:50 YOU HALF WIT ! IF I WAS YOU I'D DO A REFRESHER COURSE. FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR DIVE BUDDY - DO A REFRESHER COURSE.
What crap. Has a set of regs with no gauges or octopus. Takes this sleeveless wetsuit jacket thing and boardies, which is great if your diving a warm water location for a weekend. Useless advice otherwise, unless he intends hiring all the other stuff, like a weight belt, flashlight, etc
What is crap about it?? This is how I dive when I travel overseas you halfwit. I have a wireless setup so I DON'T need any gauges, you halfwit! And when I dive, LDS supply weights, every diver knows that, you halfwit! I live in a warm country and I only dive tropical holidays too. I'm sooooooo sorry you got butt hurt over this video hahaha that you felt the need to comment on it, your day must've really sucked, you halfwit.
Ignorant people. Have you heard of Air2 and wireless transmitter?
@@Ken-vl4wk Some people are stuck in the old ways I guess lol
@@Ethan-rs1ws you forget to mention your jacket has integrated weight pockets.
My serious question is, did you get away with this as a carry-on? That bag is a bit large for most airlines carry-on restrictions.
@@RetroDiver I don't have weight pockets on my bcd as I don't really use weights but if I do need it I've always put 1 weight on my tank strap which works a treat. Yep this has been my carry on flying from Sydney to Honolulu, and also inter island flights. I've never left my equipment out of my sight because of its worth. \000/
