In this concise YouTube short, the speaker shares his streamlined approach to packing dive gear for a trip to Cozumel. He emphasizes a test run of his setup in Wendover before the actual trip, prefers to travel light compared to his companion Brooke, and highlights the importance of keeping his dive computer on his person while stowing all other gear, including regulators, in a dive bag that he locks after passing through TSA. He briefly notes the pros and cons of carrying regulators versus bagging them, and concludes with a reassuring reminder that as long as you have air, you’re fine.

That's what I'm taking to Cozumel, and then I'm actually doing a test run with it this weekend down in Wendover. So I hope this was helpful for you. Um, I like to pack light. Uh, Brooke's not so much, but I just have— I've had to learn that that's the way she packs. For me, it's just a lot easier to keep, keep things very simple, not add a lot of things. Uh, the only other thing that I will add into this, or the other that I don't— that's not clothing-wise— is I carry my dive computer with me. All my other dive gear goes in my dive bag. I don't carry regulators with me. Um, and there's, there's pros and— there's pros and cons to that. I know a lot of people will carry their regs. I put mine in my dive bag, and then I put a lock on it once it passes through TSA. All right, I hope this was helpful, and as long as you've got air, you're all right.
