I am trying to build a a set of doubles I just purchased a used Dive rite classic wing and I was thinking about shortening the corrugated hose. What would be the best length to shorten it too
 
Mine inflator goes through an oring at the dring, my other answer is where do you want to shorten it to
 
The length Halcyon uses is perfect for me. Anything longer seems to interfere with stages.
owned several wings which aren't Halcyon (and even did T1 and T2 with them) - no issue.

of course if it bothers you can always shorten by just purchasing the H corrugated hose or equivalent.

Matan.
 
Personally I ended up with one around 30cm, and stays pretty much way out of stages. Shortened inflator hose as well. Still usable to deflate from it without issues.
 
But if you're shaped like I am then the rules go down the gurgler
