Hello all...went out with Aquaman this weekend on the North Shore of Hawaii....THANKS MIKE!!!
One glaring item missing for me was a weight belt, while I could get down and hold onto rocks while fanning, the benefit of the extra weight was VERY apparent.
Question is this, a weight belt is somewhere around $120 new (with 20lbs of weight) for a guy my size....but then GENIUS, the weight lifting shop sells a weight vest with 20lbs of weights for $50....I bought it, was that smart?
Anyone out there use a weight vest vice a weight belt? The cost was the determining factor for me...plus the vest is neophrene and uses pockets for the weight bags, another plus because I can swap with diving weight bags over time.....
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
