This is a very interesting post. Many divers are quick to dismiss the idea of mounting the pony on the tank. But divers that use Ar mount it the tank as well. But yet that's fine. I personally mount the pony on the tank sometimes and rig it as a stage other times. Depending on the dive. Just a thought.
