Bob...

Lol... you sure know how to come in an lighten up a thread don't ya...! lol.

I still am goin to hate givin up my primary to some big ol out a shape stock broker out on holly, who's last big workout was on his hiking trip from the Hilton parking lot to the elevator.... his last dive was 4 years ago at Wally World in Florida, he's started off his dive morning with 8 cups of black coffee, he goes OOA, and his idea of a "buddy breathe" is 6 for him... an 1 for me. I just know the idea of a "buddy breathe"... just ain't happenin. An my damn backup second has a snail stuck down in it (lol... I swear it was not in there when I started my dive). My lady is gonna kick my arss for dyin, for some wall dirt stiff like that. Cryin... why.. oh why didn't my lil Cybordolphin just swim up for air its not like he was in a cave or something..... !?

(I'm kidding.... don't respond)

Yes.
Sold it to a buddy's wife...
Works great for her with no cannister light...

Oh.... one more thing....

What are you paying for the hoses to be made up for you? I found a 7' on ebay.. for like $25 brand new .. but it is yellow.. (not primary color).

Who were you asking this question Cybor?

Reword question:

Has anyone had problems with the 5' hose being too short for their stature if they don't use a canister light?

cybordolphin - saw the same hose on eBay, but I've heard (but don't know if it's true), that yellow hoses float and can be obnoxious. Go to H2O Adventure Gear and buy a new black 7' hose for about $30.

And to finally answer your hose length question - I just ordered the 6'/22"/24" DIR package from them.

yes ... I can make hoses any length I want but this what I do...except I just go there in person

Good... you'll like it .... and when you do get a cannister light you can get the 7' and sell the 6'

Your LDS can order custom hoses through TRIDENT as well iff you need something out of the ordinary, like that "perfect" length on the BC whip.
