Just to be clear, the pouch isn't for weight in my case.
 
I have a theory that for the pouches I use the mountain bike tube is too small a diameter and leads to too much tension leading to eventual breaking. I have ordered a fat bike tube and will experiment with that.
 
I have lost such QR weight pouch on my GUE fundies ..... then we all have a nice lesson about balanced rig ;-))
If you mean the ones in my link, not going to happen. They are held to the webbing by a tri-glide that is sewn in on the backside and the webbing threaded though. They are not going anywhere.

Just got my fat bike tube. Works much better than a mountain bike tube for keeping pockets on 2 inch webbing from sliding. Plenty of tension and hold but less likely to break.
 
Thread a large zip tie through the loop and around the belt then cinch it down.
 
How much is wheelbarrow tyre tube
 
Can you put a tri glide on the webbing each side of where you want the picker slide, then span it with a second piece of webbing threaded on the tri glides? It would have sufficient friction to not slide and just stiffen things up and lick it down.

I just cut a slot in the pocket strap only wide enough for the webbing and thread a tri-glide through there. It’s easy, moveable, and once set it won’t go anywhere.
