Anyone know if NAUI has an official regulator configuration for sidemount, and if so what that configuration is?

In the years I've been side mounting I have changed my reg/hose routing configuration about 15 times(this includes minor tweaks). I still continue to change it up depending on the dive mission, who I'm diving with etc.. When discussing configuration with a new side mount diver I will recommend a configuration as a starting point but it most often gets changed up within the first few dives to suit personal styles and preferences, which is the beauty of side mount diving. To answer your question, I haven't seen a standard configuration from NAUI, of course that doesn't mean there isn't one.
I'm hopeful that NAUI decides to forego the idea of a standard reg configuration for SM. One reason I dig NAUI is the educational freedom offered instructors over other agencies.
