DSS Bungie Setup?

[lsorenson]

I just run them the way you do and tie a not in the bottom so it sits in the groove made for it. Basically like you have the one side done. I don't understand the adjustable portion. It is bungee, it should not need adjusting.

Got to love you guys in Florida with your 80* water and 80" vis...!!!

Yep. I do dive in 68-72* water though in the caves. However, I don't need much under my drysuit. I dove once in 55 degree water and realized I REALLY hate the cold! LOL....

Thanks ttriton!

I just switched three DSS mounted items over to your method.
I HAD to do it after Lynne described it as elegant.

Thanks for posting that.

I just set up my bungee mount and ended up using cord locks on the top side. Pull one cord, slide the lock down, pull the other and do the same. I do cross the bungee under my arm. I tuck the extra under the bungee.

What size bungie fits the DSS mounts? Also, am having a hard time locating cut to length bungie/shock cord too... My local home centers don't seem to carry it. Where should I be looking? Marine supply house?

Pirannah Diving carries it. I can't find it locally, so I include it with a Pirannah order.

REI camping stores carry many sizes and types.

It's 3/16. DSS sells it in 3 foot increments. I've found 1/8 and 1/4 at REI, but not that one.
