Why not rent your gear when you land instead of buying (and packing it) before you leave?
Some of the benefits of renting gear are:
- Save money on checked baggage fees.
- Save money on gear you’ll never use again.
- Keep your bag light.
- Having the right equipment to make sure you have a great experience.
Summary: Renting gear saves you money, hassle, and makes packing and traveling a breeze. Don’t plan your entire trip around gear that you’ll only use for a few days. Rent instead and leave the headaches behind.
