This is very similar to the method used by Capt. Billy Deans, Joel
Silverstein, myself and many other East Coast wreck divers. Personally I use
a figure eight configuration on the bungees providing storage for 2 25-50lbs
bags. The bags rest neatly under the wing, next to the body, eliminating
chance of entanglement and keeping them out of the slipstream.
