H valve blocked by inflator hose on wing

[Eagle6]

So i bought a wing, but now i have an issue with my valve plasement. I dive Dual first stages, and the inflater hose elbow is directly in front of an outlet. How can i fix this?

Move the tank comes to mind as a simple fix

I might try rotating the H so the outlet faces up, and putting the first stage on it so it is horizontal.

If i move the tank that much up it would screw up my trim becease of the the placement of weight on my back

Move some weight lower

you can always rotate the auxiliary valve so that the handle is on the bottom and the valve opening faces towards the back. It will function just the same....will just need to reposition your hoses on your secondary 1st stage.

change the tank valve and run the H on theother side

Rotate the H valve so the handle is vertical or tilted a little twards your head.

Inflating the wing like that isnt a great interference check. Doubles and rebreathers, all up will have a bunch of interference (if your checking it like this) there can be interference and you will never notice it.
