Singles or doubles?

Route them like Mk25s. Shoud be dirt simple on doubles. Bottom of the regs face down and inward. Left post bottom route is your backup reg, SPG comes down your left side from the HP port on that side. On the right post, the long hose comes off the right side of the reg which is facing down, and the inflator hose comes off the bottom port.

Drysuit hose is off your argon bottle.

It will be a singles setup for now.

Oh,

Primary and octo on the right, SPG and inflation on the left. Drysuit on the bottom. Done.

I understand that you are shooting for DIR configuration (since you posted this in DIR as well). Just make sure you get the appropriate hoses for the setup.

Yah... I thought so...

Don't use the bottom LP port. Instead use the ports on the sides. Turn the swivel so that the widest space between the ports is facing forward, then put your regs on the right ... bungeed backup in front and longer primary in back. On the left side; LPI in front and SPG in HP port.

It is a little tough to describe... sorry.

Oh... if I am seeing what I think that I'm seeing in your pics, you are going to need to ditch your backup hose... it is too long... really... it is. You need something more like a 22" with no swivel. That will route over your right shoulder and rest under your chin, secured by a bungee necklace. Then use the longer of the two hoses for your primary. Run it under your right arm. The Atomic swivels are solid so you are good there.

... I assume that you are planning a Hog/DIR type arrangement since you posted the same question in the DIR forum.

Sorry, swivels aren't DIR no matter who's name is stamped on them. If the idea is to be hog, but not DIR, then no worries.

Oh no...

...I bet you ordered two standard primary reg hoses!

If so... you are hosed. If you plan to do a 'bungeed backup/ donate the primary' kinda thing, you won't be able to use either of those. You are gonna have to order some appropriate hoses. That's a shame 'cause those Atomic hoses aint cheap.
