Bungee type in cold water

[J-Vo]

@Wibble turned me on to his solution. Knott your number up front and use the tails the grab and pull the loop.

Sorry, I don't have any photos handy.

I have a boltsnap on my loop bungees. They are clipped to my waist dring when not in use.
I jump in the water, unhook my top cylinder boltsnap, unclip the bungee and put it over the valve.
Getting out of the water is the reverse.
I don't need to feel around for a bungee if it is clipped where it should be.

Is the bolsnap then hanging in the free when you have the bungee over the valve?

What do you mean by number?

I just use 6mm and they are pretty long. Secret seems to be getting the bands high enough on the cylinder that the bungees don't carry much weight.

yes. It is only used to stow the bungee.

The rEvo rebreather is an excellent machine which many people dive. It's clearly different from most other rebreathers, especially the cannister ones, all a product of the excellent Paul Raemakers who designed the unit. As with any design, there's always scope for modifications, tweaks and...

N.B. Post 11 shows a couple of pictures of the bungees on the sidemounted cylinders.

The main benefit of the knot is it can be easily adjusted. The lashing tidies up the tails and works as an excellent handle.

Sorry, that was a really weird typo ("Bungee"). I'll be able to get a pic today.

Edit: @Wibble already posted his pics. Side benefit is not having the bungee Knot digging in your back.

I have a question. Just to be sure.

I tried to draw it on a picture.
Is the bungee around the neck of the tank (B), or as the traditional bungee around the valve? (A)
