HYDROS PRO: Converting to travel/tek waist strap
The HYDROS PRO is actually two BC’s in one; the ability to switch between the quick release weight pocket system and the light weight travel/tek waist strap makes this an extremely versatile BC. This video walks you through the process.

the idea is that you can borrow/rent a weight belt at dive location center, so you don't have to carry on plane–so your kit weight is lighter.
If I use this BCD in Travel mode, I still need weights to be able to go underwater. Where are those weights supposed to go if I took the side pockets out? I’m confused.
So the one obvious question when a diver chooses to use the "light weight travel/tek waist strap" where is he stowing his dive weights? Second how is this any more efficient than using the integrated weight pouches?
Great instructional video. Made fitting the harness a breeze.
