After 8 years of good service, the shock cord loop that holds the adapter base to the mast has lost so much elasticity that the base now wiggles around on the mast. I don’t like the idea of using bungee cords with hooks because they scratch the hardware.

Is there a place to buy a new replacement shock cord loop for the Mast Stepper III?

I use a bungee cord with plastic coated hooks. I don't have to fuss around with the loop this way.

Easy enough to make a loop with one of those ball thingy's...or stitch one together...https://smile.amazon.com/PARACORD-PLANE ... 20&sr=8-54
