I have a Sherwood Axis, back-inflate BC.
Welcome to Sherwood Scuba!

I wanted to add a 2in crotch strap to the BC to keep it from riding up on me.
Any thoughts on how to do this.
I was thinking of sewing a "D" ring so I could loop a regular crotch strap. But I don't want to puncture the bladder or anything.

OR I could use neoprene cement and extra neoprene to glue a "D" ring to the base.

Advice or input would be greatly appreciated. If you have other thoughts for crotch strap attachments feel free to chime in.
Thanks! =D
 
A lot of BCs have a loop for a crotch strap in the hard backpack. See if you can get in back there and feel for one.

You might be able to thread one where the cambands attach too. Might be too long and squirly I guess.
