Hey everybody.
I have been looking at pony bottle threads and have a couple of unanswered questions floating around in my head. I am looking at buying my own tanks next year and I am considering a pony bottle. I know a few people that back mount them but I am not sure whether I would prefer the back vs a slung bottle or not. I am also wondering about bottle size. It seems that a lot of people like 13 cf pony's but I have also seen where some like the the 30 cf pony's better. I have recently upgraded my primary and secondary second stages so I have a primary and second that would suitable for a pony now I just need to figure out which configuration I want to go with.
So my question is not which is better but why do you prefer the rig you have set up? I am just looking for other divers thoughts on why they do what they do.
Thanks everyone for enlightening me...
