| Re: Sidemounting with Aluminum Tanks
I guess I should have mentioned another thing: I am not using the bungee cord for the top of the tanks. I am clipping them to my shoulder d-rings. So, the top of the tank is low, and the bottom goes high. I figured that lengthing the back and weighting it a little would keep the tanks parallel to me although a bit lower than using a full sidemount setup with bungees.
I haven't used the bungees because I can't see how you can remove and install the bottles quickly when having to pass them back and forth while using open circuit during a bailout. Perhaps I am missing something here. If so, please give me the good word about this.
Thanks again. |
