Interesting article. The two-strap design the author created for the Oculus reminds me of the strap system used for many swimming goggles.
I suppose they have some similar problems to solve; with VR the strap is supporting a fairly heavy load hanging in front of the wearer's face, which would have a tendency to twist off if not held in place firmly. Similarly swimming goggles may twist off when diving into the water, if they aren't firmly held in place. Furthermore the 'big hair' situation seems similar in some ways to the difficulties you can have while wearing a swim cap (with lots of hair under it.)
