What's up guys, this is Brian again from Lake Hickerson, I got a little scuba tip of the week for you. I'm giving my gear loaded up or headed down to Cape Country to not do some diving down in the springs and north Florida. And so one of the things that I don't necessarily like about this trip is it's very fast pace. I mean, we don't have a lot of time. We drive all night. We dive all day that tomorrow and then we'll just dive all day on Saturday. We'll dive part of the day Sunday and then come home. And it's actually very fast pace for us because I've got so many students going down with us. But one of the problems that I have is is on Sunday before we come home, after our last dive, we don't have time to dry our gear. We don't have time to hang our suits up, let them dry our dry suits and stuff like that. I don't really have time to hang up my reg sets and let them dry. Basically, I got to put them back in the bag. I got to put the bag in a box. Box goes in and back on a truck with everybody else's gear. And then we got about a nine and a half to 10 hour ride. Well, this time of the year when it's cold out, I've got a lot of moisture and water inside the regs inside the second stages that get inside the bag. And then back on my truck, it gets pretty cold. So I don't want that stuff freezing. I don't want it mold or mildew to develop out of it. So one of the things I do is I just take like a chamois call for a microfiber towel. And this is just from the head swim in line here. You've guys have seen a review on this in the past. But all I do is just simply take one of these towels out. And of course, I do dry it off the best I can. But I'll also just take that towel and literally lay it inside the reg bag with the regulator. And then I'm going to close up the reg bed. And what it will actually do is absorb 85 to 90% of all the moisture from that regulator. So even if as soon as I get out of the water, I break my rig down, throw my rig back in the rig bag, throw my rig bag in my box. No, it's not going to be 100% dry, but it's going to have 85 to 90% of the moisture absorbed alpha that own to that towel, winds in there during that nine and a half to 10 hour ride back. And as I mentioned earlier, I do kind of the same thing with my dry suit as well. Yes, it's great to be able to hang your gear up and let it dry. Once we get home, we'll do that. But we're on the road. We don't have time to do that, unfortunately. So here in my dry suit bag, I do the same thing. My dry suit bag is actually made up of two compartments. I've got this upper compartment that holds all my undergarments. And then of course, my dry suit goes into lower compartment. And so I just take a chamois for a chamois or whatever you want to call them. And I'm separated out. So if I put a wet dry suit up, I put the chamois in. That's actually going to create a dry barrier between the wet dry suit and the dry undergarments so they're not getting contaminated or getting moisture off the dry suit. And it's also going to suck up and absorb a lot of that moisture there in that drive home. We know that this gear is very expensive, especially dry suits. You know, my dry suits a little over $3,500. So they can be very expensive. We want to take good care of them. And yes, hanging them up, letting them dry is the best option. Unfortunately, it's not an option I have for this particular trip. So little tips and techniques like this will go a long way to prolong the life of your gear. But I just wanted to make that video show you exactly what I do. And they're not expensive. I think these things come in the retail around 12 bucks. So they're very, very cheap. And it will definitely prolong the life of your dry suit, prolong the life of your regulator by simply just putting it in the box or in the bag with your dog here. They don't help absorb some of that moisture so that you're not sitting there and letting that moisture just faster all over your gear as well. But guys, I hope you enjoyed this video. I hope you found it very interesting, very entertaining. If you've got any questions, please put it down in the comments section below. As a matter of fact, let me know down in the comments what you do when you don't have time to dry out your gear of how you prolong the life of it and make it dry if you will throughout your travels.
