The first real dive I did with my hog. rig, the toggle got trapped by the stage
bottle
 - well, at least I tested my redundant buoyancy system :-7

The solution I took was to remove the pull-dump's toggle (just left the cord
behind).
Obviously, there are other ways of solving it:
Don't have a bottom pull-dump
Have the pull-dump on the RHS of the wing
<others?>

Anybody got any opinions on these?
