All this talk about pony bottles has me curious...has anyone tried to mount their pony similar to how the Armadillo system mounts the sidemount tanks?
For those not familiar, the armadillo is a sidemount system that has two bungees under the armpits coming out of the backplate that get wrapped around either tank valve. The system is supposed to be very streamlined, and typically uses 80cf or larger cylinders. The botton gets hooked onto a special butt-plate.
The Butt-plate might be hard to do, but it would be pretty simple to add some bungees to the BP.
