Securing long hose primary donate second stage.

Or skip the long hose and use medium size one (40”) while still having a primary donate setup?

No, go with long hose. Much better.

You still need to secure the 2nd when donning, doffing, and gas switches even with a 40" primary. I use a 40 and clip it off when doing the above because I don't like dangly hoses.
