I am just getting back into diving after a mulit year break and have purchased my first set of gear. I am in the process of setting it all up and need some input on hose lengths.
I have decided to go to with a 7 foot hose for my primary regulator, I am in no way DIR nor do I intend to be, I just think that the long primary makes a lot of sense. I am also planning on using a bungee neckalce for my octopus.
Having said that I have a couple of questions. I am using a jacket BC and was wondering how other people manage the long hose with a jacket. What will I secure the hose to on my right side as their will be no canister light to tuck it under? What length hoses are recommended for my other equipment? My octopus came with a longer hose than my primary and I was thinking about switching them so that my octopus has the shorter hose to reduce the possibility of snags. Also, what length hose do most of you use for you gauges?
Thanks
