My tip is to wear part of your pin kit, put some of it in your BA pocket eg. prusiks, carabiners and pulley. And you can wear your sling with a carabiner around your waste under the tube of your cag or dry suit. Having in your BA makes it quickly accessible when its needed and it saves much needed room elsewhere in your kayak. Your paddling pin kit should be light, but just in case make sure its not to heavy and that your BA still does its job. .
