Well a few reasons.
1) I have a Hollis SMS 100 not a Nomad
2) those style bungees are way to small and weak for steel tanks. They allow the tank to hang much lower then then I would like. The bungee I use is 3/8" thick and holds the tank up very well.
3)the wing is bunged down very well and does not taco. If it did it would actually have a piece of 2" webbing holding it down rather then the 3/16" bungee the nomads come with it comes with.
3/16''.. maybe it's because I asked cold water snaps but my bungees are 3/8'' thick and even with HP120's they are quite stiff in the water (or maybe they are freezing by then )
I didn't listen to sales pitches when I was hunting I simply looked at what are serious SM's using. The looped bungee seems to be the favorite at least around here for the type of diving I want to do.
I don't listen to sales pitch neither, well only sometimes to test the seller's knowledge! From some posts I read here, it effectively seems the looped bungees is a favorite, that is why I want to know why and see if it might be useful for me.
