I was just getting ready to put some cave line in my new pockets for connecting all my bolt snaps, etc.. but seems like I had heard that bungee in a loop was a better way to go.

I was considering sewing a piece of cave line across the inside of the flap and tying a 4-6" loop of bungee around it so that it could slide freely to either edge of the pocket.

Anyone have a picture of the best way to sew the bungee loop into a pocket?

I'll hold off till tomorrow before sewing it on cuz I'm off to go diving in a few minutes :)

Aloha, Tim

Burn to small holes into the front of the pocket and tie a loop of thin bungie through each hole. Two loops make it easier to find stuff. I am pretty sure there is a picture of this on the WKPP website. Bungie "hangs" better than cave line.
