Line Arrows

[FireInMyBones]

Perhaps a silly question: as I do not have a drysuit yet, where should I store my line arrows and cookie on my harness? I would like to know how others store them without pockets and without them dangling. I am curious the methods different people have found work best (DIR or not).

I use X-shorts when I am diving wet, and put the pigtail in my pocket. I have seen people hang them from their chest d-rings, and also from their left hip d-ring.

Pig tail?

Pig tail?

bolt snap with a 5-6" length of thick bungie or surgical tube attached with a knot on the distal end.

sized the cord so the line arrows fit snugly

i would advise you DO NOT leave them on a chest D-ring. it WILL eventually get hung up on the line....(or in a scooter prop. don't ask...) and make your life interesting

Sounds like good advice.

I used to leave it there on dives with a lot of navigation. I learned my lesson and have had to train myself to put it away every time

I am not looking to use the x shorts, rather save up for the dysuit. But thank you for the definition of a pig tail.

If I wanted to have the pig tail on my harness and easily accessible, could I clip it to my chest D ring and hold it down with bicycle inter-tubing?

Is there a better way until I have the money for a drysuit?

put pockets on your wetsuit?

That has been a consideration.
