Shopper With Cressi's integrated weights...does that mean you HAVE to use this feature or can you use a belt? I don't want to have to be hauling 10+ lbs in my suitcase.
LeisurePro S Integrated pockets just means that the pockets that hold the lead weight are inserted into the BCD, not that the weight is integrated into the pockets. When you get to your dive site, then you can put the weights in the pockets and slip the pockets into the jacket. No weight is included with this BCD. All that being said, if you still would rather use a belt, you certainly can.
