Ok, one question, I can't seem to find a reasonable answere on the web, that address DIR hose configuration's, which I have the Single Tank Hose Kit:
Primary hose: 5'
Secondary hose: 22"
SPG hose: 24"
I know DIR recommend's the D ring on the left hip on the 2" webbing.
Either the D-ring has to be about 6" off center, about mid way from the crotch strap to the BP, because when i'm trimmed out, and frog kicking, it feels like I have to REALLY bend my neck down to see back to my lower left hip to read the SPG.
One question I have, I have been diving it on my upper chest D-Ring for years, comming under my left arm,and clipping it off. I love my set up I just bought, love the way everything trimmed out this past weekend, but hate the SPG on the lower left hip.
Talking with somone this past weekend that was diving the same configuration, they said the " proper " DIR way is to un-clip the SPG, bring it up, check your PSI, then re-clip.
I know If I drag the SPG back under my left arm to my chest D-ring, then I have a hose now running underneath, vs streamlined along the BP, which I can see the only reason for it being there, or I'm just clipping it off to far back.
Any comments would be appreciated.
