bungee mount for petrel

[halocline]

Howdy, I'm ditching the straps on my petrel and going bungee....anybody have photos, advice on bungee size, routing, etc? I was thinking of trying to cram 3/16 in the slots, I find it more comfy than the 1/8 stuff.

I used bungee on mine with double fisherman knots to allow me to adjust it for fit with different suit configurations.

Slots are made for comfy, and reassuring, 3/16 bungie.

Experiment #1

I should have mentioned that mine are two seperate loops (if one breaks I have the second as a backup).

Yeah, that's what I did. There's no reason not to....but I could be wrong.
