I agree it just makes sense. Attaching yourself on a carabineer and then pivoting around on top of the little Decor scooter makes zero sense and is not worth the effort of rigging in my opinion. It's too easy to set these things up so thy are usable by simple burning two holes in the shroud with a shoulder gun in orientation with the handles then tie in 1 meter cave line and a bolt snap. What is so difficult here? -----Original Message----- From: mblitch1@ta*.rr*.co* To: OEA51@go*.co* Date: Tue Aug 21 13:05:07 PDT 2001 Subject: Re: Silent Submersion Vs Dacor >> I agree, in my opinion mounting a carabineer to ride on top of the Decor dpv >is the >silliest strokery I've seen come out of this list in a long time.
