I am not sure what you are trying to figure out. Here is video of me wearing it. Since I started using zip-ties I havent changed its position whatsoever.

It still works...
Here is a video of the Sidewinder after being put away wet and left to freeze.

I tied a stopper knot in mine yesterday to stop it from retracting...I was immediately getting hung up, stepping through it, and cursing to high hell. I have even really started to like using the 10mm beeline. Interested to hear how Adrian does with the 10mm OP.
Mine is really tight to my harness, as if it is one with the back pad. There isnt any play in the connection which is important because its round profile naturally brushes past obstructions. When it was lossely connect it would tip back and get caught on things but like Dave's experience mine...
For a big stem I can see the value of a steel core. The beeline is a bit thin and doesnt necessarily run straight around the trunk.
On a smaller stem where you can reach around it and make sure your lanyard is where you want it it seems less of an issue.
I am going to turn mine around (exit hole down) and put the zip tie around the housing like that. I like the concept but the zip tie will be less obtrusive for my setup and I dont plan on taking it off my saddle.
