I finally made a stunt trap and I've been hanging it from a keyfob off the ribbon cable. I worked hard on my trap pedal, so I'm wearing it. The more junk you can pile on, the cooler it looks anyhow.

the trap always seemed kind of big to carry on the belt to me. I always liked the cartoon way of carrying it on the pack itself. i know its not accurate, but it makes sense.

In my experience, my team doesn't carry them and no one notices. Myself and my team wear foam "belt" traps that are meant to be worn and not used as a trap. They're lightweight as well. I dig the idea about having it be wireless and integrated in to the thrower or hell wear a Holtmann style arm band. Or just not worry about it because the public isn't going to know one way from the other.

On the Matty trap, I use...It's a bifurcated strap of web-gear with Velcro on the two open ends and a grommet on the "closed" end. It's meant for hanging extension cords on hooks, but I put one of those cord organizers through the grommet and loop it around my belt. It's big enough to fit the trap cable and the pedal.

I really ought to anchor down the ribbon cable on the pedal. What I'm using right now isn't the sturdiest job in the world.

In this scene the pedal is hanging from a belt fob via the ribbon cable.
