I'm thinking of changing up my hose configuration and want to hear what you'all thingk - my gear is at the shop being serviced so the timing is good.
Currently I dive a single tank (with a Pony) with regs in the common fashion the secondary in my mouth and the octo on a longer hose (36"?). For the next several months my dives will be day trips in the New York area. I'm thinking of switching to put my "octo" on a neckace and my secondary on a longer hose, mainly because I want the backup nearer to my face, and I don't like the large loop that the secondary on a 30"(?) hose creates.
I'm diving with a DR Transpac, and on my waist belt are weight pouches and on the right side is also a large pouch. I also keep a flashlight attached to the right chest D-ring, hanging down the side.
My question is, how do you suggest I route a 40" hose? Under the large pouch and up into my mouth? Is that safe (to donate)? Thanks much.
