caseybird:Wow, another reason the dreaded long hose is dangerous.
Hmmm. Not quite as dangerous as a panicked diver ripping your mask off or kneeing you in the face as you try to grab his legs to keep him down.
I dive both long and short hoses and there is no more "danger" using one or the other, I was only giving an example of the only thing I could see going slightly wrong using it. The short hose would not let you keep your distance from a panicked diver.
