Wetwork for Hire
Note: if you're short like me, 40" can be too long for the under arm primary to be completely streamlined and it'll find its way past and over your elbow. I imagine the opposite problem applies if you're larger/taller than average. If you're interested in that set-up, try to measure with a piece of string or something under your arm for the best hose length, or see if you can try it on someplace
A 90° elbow will usually help that. Not one of those multi direction elbows, but a true 90 will force the hose down. A swivel turret first stage on the correct LP output will help too. I also nixed hose protectors which aside from being a good practice for reducing corrosion on the hose fitting, it also allows for better hose routing. This is an older pic showing my setup. I no longer have that SPG hose. My rec. open water rig now has just two hoses. Gotta love an Air2 with wireless AI. You literally can't get more streamlined than that unless you oral inflate and ditch the octo, the latter would only make sense if you were strictly a solo diver.
