The Transpac XT package configuration which includes the 20lb weight pocket set seems to always come with the pockets vertical, at least in all those I've seen hanging in shops and online photos. Caveat: I had a problem with one pocket literally falling off the belt due to the single sewn in webbing loop failing - and this was during an at home pre-dive fit adjustment with no weights installed! While the pocket was replaced under warranty, I have no confidence in this single webbing loop holding any weights let alone up to 10lbs each. Another point, the vertical pocket configuration is quite loose and tends to slide around on the waist belt. Mounting the 20lb weight pocket set horizontally is much more stable and secure as you can run the waist belt through 2 webbing loops, plus lock in the pocket position as shown in this video.
