I hope that's a "before" photo.FLL Diver:I know it isn't what you meant, but the first thought that came to my mind is - does it work better if you have large spaces between your teeth?

fairybasslet:I had one but I took it off during my trip to Thailand. I'm so glad I brought my old mouthpiece with me, which is one that goes all the way around, not one with the two little things to grab in your teeth. I found that the Seacure irritated my bottom right gum. It seems the reg kind of pulls down that way in my mouth.
scubafanatic:I'd recommend you invest in the universal fit stainless steel 2nd-stage swivel regulator hose from Atomic Aquatics, $ 70 @ Scubatoys............ I've installed (5) of them on the primary 2nd stages of 5 of my regs....combined with the new generation Hi-Flow Seacure mouthpieces, they're AWESOME ! It will eliminate the tendency of the 2nd stage to push/pull in your mouth (assuming your 2nd stage hose isn't WAY off lengthwise, otherwise you'll want to order a custom length Atomic swivel hose) however, all 5 of my so-equipped regs use the 'standard' length Atomic hose and this works just fine.

fairybasslet:Or, I could just use the mouthpiece I'm using, which is fine, and save myself a whole heap of $.
scubafanatic:.
...with respect to saving a lot of $, a $70 comfy reg hose struck me as rather minor $ for anyone living in New Jersey who can afford a dive vacation in Thailand.
